SIX15 IN THE SUMMER
![Picture](/uploads/4/6/2/0/46207773/published/six15-thumbnail.jpeg?1718302997)
We realize that a Sunday worship service does not match every person's schedule. Because of that, we offer a Wednesday service, complete with worship, prayer, and a message for all ages at 6:15pm. We meet in the High School Room so that we can mingle with one another and see all that is going on. Our time together is casual and yet meaningful and ends around 7:00pm so families with littles can get them home in a timely manner. If you know someone that can’t come on Sundays, invite them to this time with God and His people.
The schedule for the Summer is July 17, July 31, Aug 14, and Aug 28.

CHRISTMAS IN JULY FOR CHILDREN

Children around the world will have the opportunity to know God loves them through Operation Christmas Child, which distributes filled boxes around Christmas. We want to help by building 100 boxes and we are making July our collection month.
All items will be packaged in shoe boxes so items need to be compact or rolled up. In September we will get the boxes and sort the items into them.
Here is how YOU can join in:
1. Purchase items and put them in the designated boxes in the lobby. Below are some ideas but you are welcome to purchase other items not listed but fitting in one of those categories.
2. Give financially for postage (each box costs $10 to mail).
a. Online (choose Operation Christmas Child
b. Cash (please designate for OCC)
c. Check (made out to BSLC with OCC in memo line
3. Give a donation and let someone else purchase items.
Download the below file to see what items we will be collecting for the shoe boxes and where you can purchase some items.

GROW YOUR OWN FOOD!

There are up to four garden plots available up on the upper terrace for anyone (members or not) to grow their own food or pretty flowers. Each plot has access to water and Steve and Greta Schmidt are available to answer questions or help to get things growing properly. The cost for the whole summer is $25 and you would have access to the shed to store things or use the tools that are in there. If interested, please contact Steve Schmidt.
If you have questions about any events, just give us a call at the church office at (503) 788-7000.
