Pastor Sean's May Book Club
This month's book club pick is called 'Unlimited Grace' by Bryan Chapel. One review of this book says:
"This book has given me clear understanding of God's grace in a practical and powerful way. My heart was stirred to create notes with Scriptures and prayer journal outlines, based on ideas in this book. I am utterly grateful to have read this book as it has already enriched my relationship with our Father. Thank you, Bryan Chapel!"
Be sure to grab a copy!

Sycamore Summer Project Needs
The summer project is designed to give college students an opportunity to grow in a Gospel-rich environment. Each summer we invite 4-6 college students to come take part in the Sycamore Summer Project. Our hope is to provide them with a paid internship or work placement for the duration of the program, to challenge them to lead as they serve our church, and to encourage them with the good news of the Gospel through study, discipleship, and service.
We are in need this summer of the following things:
- 1 or 2 host families for students who are not local
- Men and Women willing to walk alongside these students in discipleship for the summer
- People willing to provide meals for weekly intern meetings
- Prayer partners
If you are interested in helping us out this summer or would like to learn more about these opportunities to care for and serve these college students please contact Marty Cates at mcates@sycamorepres.com.
