STUDENT MINISTRY CHALLENGE ENVELOPE FUNDRAISER continues! Summit is attending the EFCA’s biennial youth conference in July. This has been instrumental in starting a prayer group at CCHS and has been a catalyst to students taking the step of baptism. Money raised will be used exclusively to lower student costs. Visit the Welcome Center, grab an envelope(s), and return it with the corresponding dollar amount on the envelope.

DIAPER DRIVE ONGOING in support of our local pregnancy center. Place donations at wood wall in lobby now through Father’s Day. The Pregnancy Center especially needs larger diaper sizes (4, 5, 6 & Pull-ups) and unscented diaper wipes. The most used formula brands are the purple and yellow Enfamil, but any type of formula is appreciated. In some of our historic Diaper Drives, we’ve rallied together to help provide their diaper needs for 1/3 of the year!

If you would like to share a prayer request with the prayer team, please fill out a prayer card in the lobby or click here.
