Do not boast about tomorrow,
for you do not know what a day may bring.

We will be celebrating Communion this Sunday.  We will be serving the Lord's Supper similar to how we did it before the pandemic, but we will have prepacked elements available for those who prefer them. Those who are joining us online may use their own bread and juice, or other food and drink.

Did you know... At our last meeting, Session decided to use unused Mana funds* to buy feminine hygiene supplies for Sterling High School.  (Click here to read more about why this is needed.)

*Mana funds come to us through the Dillons Community Rewards program through which a percentage of your purchases is donated to UPC.  Read more and sign up to participate here.  Our church organization number is SN227.
 

Goodfellows is providing all school supplies for students at USD 376 this school year. 

UPDATE (8/2): "WOWZERS!!! We live in the most incredible community. This morning we needed a little more than $2,000 to cover all the expenses for this year's campaign. One hour ago I posted that we needed a little more than $700, and now we need $0."

Prayer of Dedication/Offering

There are those who have no place to rest

     May our gifts provide shelter

There are those who are parched for justice

     May our generosity quench their thirst

There are those who wander the streets alone and afraid

     May our blessings provide a way

There are those who are in the valleys of suffering

     May we offer ourselves as companions on the journey

In Jesus’ name, we pray

     Amen

(Old Vanco Giving Link)
