Unity Family Cares and Concerns


Staffing Changes
As of July 1, Pastor Jeff begins his new contract as a full-time pastor and Pastor Wendy changes to a volunteer rather than staff, remaining available to the congregation. Please note that tax-deductible contributions can no longer be made for her support through the church at this time. This change has also been worked out with outside contributors. Pastor Jeff and Wendy both thank you deeply for your prayer and financial support over the last couple of years.

Fragrance-Free Reminder
Unity Church strives to be a scent-free facility so that we can effectively minister to all people without forcing away any who have allergies. Please be considerate when getting ready for worship on Sundays. We face a tough challenge in controlling scents because of our small worship space, so we are pleading for your help. Please refrain from using perfumes, colognes, aftershaves, hairspray, or even shampoos and soap that are scented. We do not want to alienate people from the gospel over smelling good. Let your “fragrant offerings” only be the life you live and the gifts you use. Thank you for following this policy - we appreciate it greatly.


UNITY CHURCH MINISTRY OPPORTUNITIES


Missions Support
We give abundant thanks to the Unity Church family for its ongoing support of our Long-Term missionaries. We plead for your continued prayers for them as they labor in foreign lands for the sake of the gospel. While we do not want to reduce our support of our missionaries to just sending money, it is necessary to assist in the work they do. So far this fiscal year (through last week) we have given over $34,000 to our missionaries. Hallelujah!! Last June, we made a commitment to raise $36,300 by June 30 to send to our missionaries. We are asking for you to consider giving generously these last two weeks to ensure that our missionaries receive the funds they need and we have committed to. If you would like to help in this ministry, please designate your check to “Missions” and place it in the offering plate. Thank you for your support!

Worship at the Lake
NEXT SUNDAY ~~ 11:00AM!
Next Sunday we will gather at Kandiyohi Lake (County Park #1) for a special outdoor service and picnic celebration. Take a blanket or lawn chair with you as we celebrate God’s goodness to us in the great outdoors! A picnic lunch will be served afterwards by your elders and deacons! A special surprise for the kids will also be available during the lunch hour! It will be a great day for the whole family! See you at the lake NEXT WEEK!
