Sunday, August 16th - Scripture
Words Matter, James 3:1-12
3 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers and sisters, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness. 2 For all of us make many mistakes. Anyone who makes no mistakes in speaking is perfect, able to keep the whole body in check with a bridle. 3 If we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we guide their whole bodies. 4 Or look at ships: though they are so large that it takes strong winds to drive them, yet they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. 5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great exploits. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire! 6 And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is placed among our members as a world of iniquity; it stains the whole body, sets on fire the cycle of nature, and is itself set on fire by hell. 7 For every species of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by the human species, 8 but no one can tame the tongue—a restless evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse those who are made in the likeness of God. 10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and brackish water? 12 Can a fig tree, my brothers and sisters, yield olives, or a grapevine figs? No more can salt water yield fresh.
ReEntry Plans
Phase 1 of our ReEntry plan will begin on September 1st!
We are finishing renovations of our new home, located at 1001 N State Rd 135, Suite A1. Plans are underway to welcome you all back in a limited capacity. As a reminder, Phase 1 allows for partial office hours and meetings of groups of 10 or less (with masking, distancing, and cleaning protocols). Worship will remain online only until Phase 2. Starting September 2nd, the church office will be open on Monday and Wednesday, from 9 am-2 pm (although not open on Labor Day).
We are also pleased to announce an Open House for
Sunday, September 13th, from 2-5 pm.
This will be a come-and-go experience that will allow you to see the new space and offer prayer for our future within it. Registration will be required. Time is allotted in 15-minute increments and only 10 people may register for each increment.
Staying Connected
Great Job, Church!
For 2019, Tapestry was recognized in three categories for stewardship and generosity. Keep it up!
Moving Preparations
If you have ANY items that are being stored at the current church office please contact the staff at office@gototapestry.org or 317-784-4431 to schedule a time to collect them. Please note, due to limited storage at our new location any remaining items will be donated.
The Refuge
The move to the new building has been completed & clients are again being seen inside the building. Tapestry will be returning to donating CANNED FRUIT & SOUP. Thank you Tapestry for all of your donations - you are so appreciated!
Westwood Weekend Bags
Weekend Bags is a program where we will assemble weekend bags of food for those children that may not have the nourishment they need over the weekend! There are currently 15-20 students that are in need of this program at Westwood Elementary School. No child should be left hungry. School starts August 6th and our program will start the week after. We are asking for non-perishable, easy to prepare food for the children to ensure they receive enough food on the weekends to avoid hunger when they can't depend on a school meal. Two entrees (pasta bowls, chef boyardee, ind. cereal, two snacks, one juice box, applesauce, pudding cup, raisins, granola bars, crackers) are just a few ideas!!! Please contact Dawn Arnold (317-507-0003) to arrange pick-up/drop-off.
Giving
You can continue to give online through this link or you can mail your tithes and offerings to the church office (2801 Fairview Place, Suite M, Greenwood, IN 46142). The work of the church is ongoing, and we are always grateful for your sustained generosity.

setting up a Zoom meeting for your group.
James repeatedly tells us in scripture that love is an action. Building on this idea, a webinar series has been created through the general offices of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) to provide opportunities to hear a discussion about love with a specific focus. It is a series of 8 webinars that meet bi-weekly. Click here to register for the webinars. The panelists are from our denomination and offer their personal experiences. If you wish to discuss what you hear, please join the Tapestry conversation afterward through our zoom link.
