We are doing a number of outreach projects now, and I want to challenge, invite, ask you to join in on them. We need you to share the events with your friends and family, and we need volunteers to serve, provide and help. The Big Give happens Saturday (tomorrow), Sundae Sunday is on Sunday June 12th, Canada Day is July 1st downtown Amherst, then we have Konnect at the Park and Konnect Camp in August! Please help us tell the world that Jesus loves them, has life for them, and wants to transform them!

We also desperately need you to be praying for these events and everyone attending or serving. It is only God who will create change here and so we need to focus on Him above and beyond everything else. Please be praying for the youth going to OneCon (a youth rally in Moncton) tomorrow and for the Big Give right away. Take a moment today and tomorrow to pray for these events.

REMINDER:

Pastor Sheryl is on sabbatical until the middle of Sept. This is so she can finish up some courses for ordination and be ready for the ministry season coming this Fall. Please be praying for her time to be productive, healing, energizing and encouraging. While she is on sabbatical you can contact Pastor Brad or Evan concerning things you would normally talk to her about.

1. 11 Teens plus leaders are going tomorrow (Saturday) to OneCon, a youth rally in Moncton, with Pastor Brad! 11 Teens!!!!

2. There is SOOOOO much stuff here waiting for the Big Give tomorrow! Amazing to see how the community supports this, and how people keep saying to me, "this is great, and such a good thing for our community!"

3. Our new Stephen Leader is leading the training sessions of our new Stephen Ministers now!

4. Pastor Brad has recruited a new co-leader for his young adults Small Group this Fall!

5. You all did such an incredible job last week when you blessed Pastor Brad and Olivia as they prepare for their baby this July. You really encouraged them a lot!

6. The sermon last Sunday, both here in Amherst and on PEI, was really stirring in hearts and minds and it was evident that the Holy Spirit was doing some work on a lot of people!

There are many times in our lives when people hurt and wrong us. These are sometimes just mistakes or misunderstandings, but sometimes they are just violations and legitimate offenses. When those things take place, a gap forms between us and them and until there is forgiveness that takes place, that gap will exist.

Colossians 3:13

You can't have unity if there's a charge between you.

This is a great Sunday to invite your friends and family to check out AWC and hang around after service for free ice cream!

Let's try to pack out the place!

Everything must go, for FREE! It's like a yardsale, but everything is free and in decent condition!

Donations can be dropped off at the church starting May 29- June 3. Event will run 8-11am with a Free BBQ.

Come hang out at our casual Coffee House. With coffee brewed, snacks available, and some easy listening musical talent, this is a great spot to spend time with friends!

Come learn how to become a leader, a better leader or simply learn something new!

This month we will learn what makes AWC tick, and what next steps leaders should take to keep growing.
