A morning of leafletting for Chain of Lakes

I’m inviting all friends of Chain of Lakes to join us for a morning of leafleting on Saturday, June 2.

This summer the primary worship experience for Chain of Lakes will be Wednesday. We’re calling worship, “Sundaes on Wednesday.” We will be worshipping at Northpoint Elementary School which is very near the property the Presbytery is purchasing for us. Worship will be different. We’re calling it casual, engaging and conversational. People will be seated at tables, I will preach in a conversational way for 10-15 minutes, and after the sermon people will have conversation around thetables. Music promises to be very good. We will have a separate youth program for youth ages 5th grade and older and 4thgrade and under. Participants can pick up some healthy, pre-packaged food when they come and eat it during worship. We will have sundaes afterwards. Worship will begin at 6:30 p.m.

This service is aimed at people who leave for the weekends during the summer and for people who are not connected to a church. It is also a way to get the word out about Chain of Lakes to people who live near our new property. We are very hopeful that the new people who come to Sundaes on Wednesday will connect over time to Chain ofLakes church.

We are starting “Sundaes on Wednesday” on Wednesday, June 20th.

This is where you can help!! Come pass out leaflets on Saturday, June 2. We will gather at the Lino Lakes Senior Center at 9:30 a.m. The address is 1189 Main in Lino Lakes. (A map is on the Chain of Lakes web site—colpres.org). After we gather on June 2ndeveryone will receive a short training. Folks will then go out in groupsof two to pass out leaflets for about two hours.

This is a wonderful opportunity for the Presbytery and friends to live into the idea that Chain of Lakes is a Presbytery ministry.

I hope you will come. If you are planning toparticipate, send me an E-mail at pastor@colpres.org.
