Announcements and Upcoming Events

FIRST SUNDAY SUMMER BRUNCHES COMING SOON!

Immediately following the 10:30 service in Fisher Hall, everyone is

welcome! The Fellowship Committee will provide the entrees, PBJ

for the kids, beverages and table service. You just bring your family,

friends from worship, and a side dish or dessert. You do NOT need

to bring food to attend. First brunch will be June 4th.

CONCERT IN THE PARK SERIES!

Featuring Doug Chapman (Mr. Motown)-June 10,

The Lovehandles (Joan Nelson’s band)-July 21,

and our new worship ensemble-August 19. Each concert

will also feature a different, local food truck, so pull out your tailgating chairs, tell your

friends, and get ready for some entertaining neighborhood events! All concerts are from

6:00-8:00 p.m. in Friendship Park. The Vista Burger food truck will join us June 10!

Creative Writing Class for Teens and Adults-Mary Mertz

and Rev. Kati Collins will be leading a writing group which

will meet Mondays at 5:30pm at Bluestem Bistro during

June and July. Whether you have already started a writing

project or need some guidance in creativity, this will be a

time for getting tips and being accountable to write and complete a project: fictional

book, collection of poems, illustrated book, narrative non-fiction,

graduate thesis, journaling pilgrimage, etc. Please register through the church office or

on our website.

Now is the time to submit your photos for Father’s Day! You may either email them to

[email protected] or drop off photos in the church office.

Non-traditional Worship Events-A Worship Design

Team led by Rev. Kati Collins will be building over the

next several months to launch a new non-traditional

worship service on September 10th at 10:15a.m. on

Sunday mornings in our family life center. We will be

developing this new worship service to welcome people

of a variety of age groups who are spiritual and drawn

to Jesus, maybe went to church years ago, and yet feel

uncomfortable in a traditional church setting. Three

Worship Events will take place during the summer for

worshipers to explore liturgy, music, and creative

elements to get a feel for what contemporary worship

looks like for First Pres Manhattan. The first event will be a Revival Sing-Along on

Wednesday, June 7 at 6:30 p.m. Contact Pastor Kati for more information and follow

our Facebook Page for updates over the summer.

*OPENING HYMN #339 Lift Every Voice and Sing *CALL TO WORSHIP & CONFESSION Norm Schlesener Leader: If we claim to be sinless, we are self-deceived and strangers to the truth. If we confess our sins, God is just and may be trusted to forgive our sins and cleanse us from every kind of wrong. People: Spirit of God, search our hearts. All: God of mercy, we have sinned against You and against others. We have sinned in what we have done, and in what we have failed to do. We are truly sorry. For the sake of Your Son Jesus Christ, who died for our sins, forgive us for all that is past and raise us to newness of life. Amen. *ASSURANCE OF PARDON Leader: Almighty God, who pardons all who truly repent, forgive our sins, strengthen us by the Holy Spirit, and keep us in life eternal; through Jesus Christ our Redeemer. Amen. *GLORIA PATRI #581 Glory Be to the Father TIME FOR GREETING & ANNOUNCEMENTS Rev. Kati Collins
