Joys:
Give thanks to the 46 campers from the Northern Lights region spending this coming week together at Camp Gwinwood, including the five youth from our congregation and myself! I look forward to taking this time away in the wilderness to learn about God's wondrous ways anew and to make memories and community together.
We welcome our newest member, Bill Poores! Bill comes to us after having served a full vocation of ministry at the Disciples church in Yakima and a handful of ministerial contexts in and out of the Disciples of Chris world, including a period of interim ministry at Eastside Christian Church. Welcome, Bill!

Among our local and global community:
We pray for peace throughout the world. For an end to violence in all its forms, including those perpetuated in the guise of national interest.
We pray for Palestine and Gaza, for those entwined in the war in Israel and Yemen, for Ukraine, for those in conflict fighting for justice in Bangladesh, for Afghanistan, Somalia, and many more places around the world.
We pray for the village on 6th and Orchard for those who find themselves without shelter.
We pray for our Global Ministry partners this week in Argentina.
