Sabbath: a time of rest and worship.
“… a Sabbath rest remains for God’s people. For the person who has entered his rest has rested from his own works, just as God did from His. Let us, then, make every effort to enter that rest… “
Hebrews 4:9-11 (CSB)
Beginning July 5th, we will enter into a season known as “Summer Sabbath”. During this time (July 5th-August 2nd), there will be no 9:00 am hour*. Each Sunday, join us for Family Worship at 10:30 am in the Sanctuary, with Harbor Kids provided for babies-twos. These Family Worship services will be intentionally planned as multigenerational gatherings.
This season will allow our church time to rest and gear up for a strong start to the new school year, which we will kick off with a Lifegroup Relaunch Potluck and Back to School Sunday on August 9th.
*No Adult Lifegroups, Harbor Students, or Harbor Kids will take place at 9 am. Harbor Kids, ages 3 and up, will be joining us in the Sanctuary for Family Worship at 10:30 am.
Summer Sabbath Schedule
Sunday Fellowship
Sunday’s July 5th – August 2nd | 9:30 am – 10:15 am
Throughout Summer Sabbath, we will have an informal time of fellowship before service (9:30 am – 10:15 am) out on the deck. Bring your favorite morning drink, and we’ll provide some light pastries/fruit.
Harbor Students: Dart Lunch
Every Other Thursday, June 18th – July 30th | 11:30 am – 1:00 pm
All Harbor Students (6th-12th grade) and leaders, as well as graduating 5th graders (incoming 6th graders) are invited to join us every other Thursday this summer for Dart Lunch as a midweek time of fellowship in place of Salt & Light. On the Sunday prior to the scheduled lunch, a student will be chosen to throw a dart at a dartboard filled with nearby places to eat in the Rivercity Marketplace. Drop your student off at the chosen location at 11:30 am with their own money for lunch, and pick them up at 1 pm!
We will post the lunch location to the parent chat in Church Center, so be sure to join that group if you haven’t already: JOIN GROUP
