Sermon: Galatians 6:6-10
Scripture: In Due Season
Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word should share all good things with their instructor. Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reep destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. Funeral Service for
Hiroko Seki Blanco

Report from 2014 Annual
Congregational Meeting
The Annual Congregational Meeting was held a 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 8, 2014. The proposed 2014-15 Budget was approved as submitted. The proposed slate of officers was amended with three nominations from the floor to fill vacant positions: Louie Brinker for Trustee, Mandy Hillig for Elder, and Kathy Grill for Deacon. The amended slate of officers was approved.
A proposed Amendment to the Constitution concerning Trustees' duties had been tabled at the June 2013 Congregational Meeting. It was again tabled, awaiting any other changes or recommendations which may come from the Strategic Planning process.
Copies of the budget and the annual reports were distributed at the meeting and are still available in the narthex.

Meditation & Prayer
Silence is hard to find in our busy modern life. Yet, silence has been an integral quality of spiritual practices throughout history. We are offering two times for you to participate in a time of "spiritual silence" in our beautiful chapel. We hope you avail yourself of these opportunities and find them meaningful.
Sunday 8:15-8:45 AM We will begin with 15 minutes of silence, then read a passage of scripture on which to meditate. We will close this time with a brief verbal prayer or the ring of a bell.
