(Live Stream from St. Marks Luthern Church this week)
Vacation Bible School
Point kids to Jesus, a faithful friend we can always trust.
Guide kids on the ultimate Alaskan adventure where northern lights glow over majestic mountains, racing rivers, and glistening glaciers. As kids trek the tundra, they’ll explore how easy it is to lose sight of what’s true in our wild world today. Pointing them toward Jesus, True North VBS shows them that he is a faithful friend we can always trust. He’s our True North!

Worship in the Church Park begins on Sunday, July 6 and concludes on Sunday, August 31.
Worship in the Park will be at 9:00 a.m. Worship in the air-conditioned Sanctuary will be at 10:30 a.m. Please note, that if we are headed to 90 degrees or more on a Sunday, the sign will be up at the park to come to the Sanctuary.

Hair for Care 2025
To Benefit the Mission Efforts for the Reformed Churches of the Upper Perkiomen Valley
​
The Reformation Sister Clergy have offered their “hair” for the feeding of others through a program called “Rise Against Hunger!” We wish to raise at least $10,000.00! Each pastor will set a goal for their congregation to share in! New Goshenhoppen’s goal is $3,000.00 to be raised by August 24, 2025. Should we obtain this goal, PD’s “salt & pepper” will be professionally colored and revealed on Sunday, August 31 at worship. Imagine our pastor in Penn State Blue and White, Eagles’ Green, Fire Engine Red, Passionate Purple, Liturgical Green, etc. A vote will be held on August 24! Coloring by Sarah George will follow!

Attention All Cooks
The Anniversary Cookbook Committee is collecting recipes for our publication. We are looking for your favorites. Please dig deep and send us recipes for the ages. Include those from your grandparents, friends, and family members with a focus on, but not exclusively, old
German and PA Dutch foods.
​
Recipes can be dropped off in the appropriately marked box in the Social Room, handed to a committee member, or emailed to krause1123@comcast.net. Please include your name and contact information.
We are looking forward to some tasty treats!
Women's Fellowship
Women’s Fellowship will continue to meet during the summer months in the Church Park as follows:
 Monday, June 2nd 9:30 a.m. for Coffee Klatch;
 Monday, July 7th at 5:30 p.m. for a hot dog roast;
 Monday, August 4th 1:00 p.m. for an Ice Cream Social.
The Women's Fellowship voted to purchase an aluminum bench for the Church Park. All our financial giving is largely possible because of your participation in the Redners’ Save-A-Tape program. There is a container in the Fellowship Hall vestibule and in the Social Room for your receipts. Remember, in order for us to use your Redners’ receipt, the receipt must include the entire sales receipt.
300th Anniversary
