Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing
you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2

Our Patriotic Service . . . was successful in bringing us
back together. Right now we are meeting four times a year in
one combined service. We had a great crowd on Sunday and the
spirit was amazing. I appreciate all the work that Stephen put into
the service as well as all who gave leadership. We had two young
people come for baptism at the end of the service which made for
a great celebration. I hope you were blessed as much as I was on
Sunday.
Our World Changer Projects last week . . . had us working
in West Memphis and Gallup, New Mexico. Nick was the Project
Coordinator in West Memphis and I was the PC in Gallup. I took a
small group with me and Nick had a strong group of students and
workers who were with him. Homes were rehabbed and the gospel
was shared in both locations. I believe Nick’s group got the worst of
the heat. Both weeks were a blessing to both home owners and the
students. Thank you for supporting our mission work. Thank you
for allowing your staff to give leadership in these kinds of projects.
School Supply Collection
The WMU group is now collecting
school supplies for Brinkley Heights to
distribute to underprivileged children
in the immediate community. Boxes
are located around the church and
collection will run through Sunday,
August 2.

Be praying . . . for our Camp ministries coming in July.
Both our Youth Camp and our Kid’s Kamp will be held in July. These
camps are so critical in the lives of our students and children. I am
looking forward to being at both camps this summer. I missed them
both last summer due to my ankle surgery. While Kimberlie Herron
is serving as our interim Minister to Children, she will be organizing
our Kid’s Kamp. We are blessed to have strong and capable leaders
in our Youth and Children’s Ministries.
MDO & Preschool Registration
Don’t forget . . . about our new Wednesday night
reservation set up. As of July 1, you must have a reservation to eat
at the regularly scheduled time. You may have to wait until those
with reservations get fed. Also, if you are on the “standing weekly
list” and you don’t show up and you don’t cancel, you will be
expected to pay for the meal. We are trying to be better stewards
with the Wednesday night meal costs. We also want to try and
enhance the meals with less wasted spending. You can call in by
9:00 am on the Wednesday before the meal to make any changes.

God’s vision and will for our church? The staff is meeting and we
are asking God to give us a clear picture of what He wants for our
church. Are we accomplishing His purpose for us in Bartlett? Are
we being successful in sharing Jesus? How can we better reach our
community for the Kingdom?
I am excited about what God
is doing in our midst. We want to be constantly pursuing His plan
for our church. Pray that our hearts will reflect His heart!

Wednesday Night is Moving Back
to a “Reservation” Approach
As of July 1, we are using a “standing list” to reserve
a meal. This will bring two big changes:
1) If you are on the “standing list” and you do not
come to eat, you will still be expected to pay for
that meal. You can cancel your reservation any time
before 9:00 AM on Wednesday morning and you
will not be expected to pay. If you want to be on
the “standing list”, contact Karyn.
2) If you are not on the “standing list”, you may be
asked to wait until 5:40 PM to eat to be sure all those
with reservations get served. You can call before
9:00 AM on Wednesday and make your reservation
to eat with us and you can come at 5:00 PM. Steve
will always prepare enough extra for any guests
that may come to eat first time.
“Why are we doing this?” you may ask. We are
wasting a lot of food in our current approach. We
can be better stewards of our money and upgrade
our meals if we use the “reservation” approach.
Begins August 26th at 5:45 PM
