This month @ City of Peace--July

New Website and Blog--We are in the midst of creating a website for City of Peace, which will be completed soon. We'll provide more information in the days to come. Also, we have a blog that provides pictures of recent events along with this monthly update. Check it out at www.cityofpeacecc.blogspot.com

Opportunities to Serve--We are still looking for a little help around City of Peace. If you are looking for a way to plug into City of Peace and want to help out, please consider helping in the following ways.

Sunday Morning Set-up—If you would like to come a bit early, we could use a couple helping hands to tidy-up, set up chairs and do anything else that needs to be done before the service. Contact Henk V. if you are interested.

Sunday Morning Coffee Rota—If you are not on the rota for helping out with teas and coffees and would like to be, please let us know. Contact Karen B. if you are interested.

Sunday School--The Sunday School hour, which is held immediately following the service, needs helpers to assist the Sunday School Teachers. Contact Marlene B. if you are interested.

House Group on Tuesday Nights at 7:15pm
At House Group we take some extended time to fellowship and study the Bible together. Here is a schedule of the topics we will cover over the next month. We are continuing a study on the psalms, which we started in June.

July 4--We will be studying psalms 14&16.
July 11--We will be studying psalm 18.

Friday Prayer Meeting on the 7th of July
Please join us at the Cafe at 6:30 am. (that’s right, in the morning) for our monthly prayer meeting to pray over individual, community and world issues and concerns. We also take some time to eat some breakfast afterwards.

The Lord’s Supper on the 16th of July
Communion will be served on the 16th of July at our Sunday morning meeting. Please mark your calendars. Again, I’m including Paul’s words as something for you to consider as you come that day.

1 Corinthians 11:27-29 27 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. 28 A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.

Cafe Jumble Sale on the 22nd of July
Cafe Forever will be holding a Jumble sale on July 22nd. If you have items that you would like to give away please see Henk V. or Marlene Botha. Also, Please talk to Marlene of Henk if you would like to help out at the Jumble sale.
