There are many interesting things happening at our church!
In June we welcomed mild weather as well as the talented Faith Ministries Singers. We also held our June All-church Potluck and a church-wide Work Bee, keeping our members busy!
The Faith Ministries Singers blessed us with a sacred concert enjoyed by all!
Fathers and father figures were presented with beautiful leis, some edible!
At our June All-church potluck we welcomed baby Mattias to our church family and honored June birthdays, graduates, and of course, fathers!
We closed out the month with a church Work Bee - cleaning, tossing, trimming, digging, and cutting. Never easy tasks! Thank you to all who came out to help.

May was a busy month for our church family members with the conference Men's Retreat, a Ladies' Fellowship & Tea, Mother's Day, and a Family Game Night. Whew!
These four men had a blessed weekend attending the Northern California Conference "Christian Men's Retreat" held annually at the Leoni Meadows Retreat Center in the beautiful El Dorado National Forest.
Not to be outdone by the men, 48 women from our church and the East Bay Fil-Am Adventist Church enjoyed a Women's Ministry afternoon of "Fellowship & Tea" - reconnecting, chatting, laughing, and eating with new friends and old! We were blessed with an inspiring message from our guest speaker Rita Barnes. Thank you to all who worked so diligently to bring this event back to our church!
Several women from our Women's Ministry team helped create corsages and a photo backdrop to honor all mothers, grandmothers, aunties, and mother-figures!
We closed the month of May with "Family Game Night" (sponsored by the social committee) with lots of laughter, games, and food of course!

April brought an exciting, 3-part seminar called "Origins: The Evidence of Creation", our monthly All-Church Pot Luck, and an Men's Ministry pizza event!
Dr. Stan Hudson presented "Origins: The Evidence of Creation" in three parts including a discussion of dinosaurs! Our delicious April All-Church Pot Luck was for seminar attendees and to celebrate April birthdays, of course!
Our Men's Ministry held their annual "Men-to-Men Chats" pizza lunch with a few ladies sneaking in! The main topic of discussion: Christian Men's Retreat at Leoni Meadows Conference Center in May.
