A message from Ken Klopman: “Royal Family KIDS Camp is really short on men this year. We could probably use 8-10 more guys. In fact, we have stopped inviting boys to camp for now because we don’t want to have to turn them away for lack of male counselors. If you can refer some solid Christian men (not just warm bodies), I’d love to hear from them very soon. Interviews are this week with only two days left (tonight & Sunday). Training is at VMC June 1, 6-8:30 pm and June 2, 8 am-6pm. Camp is July 1-6. Applications at: https://form.jotform.com/63085678273163.

THIS SUNDAY, in our message series through the book of Hebrews, we look at Hebrews 8:7-13. We’re going to see why and how Jesus is greater than the old covenant God had with the nation of Israel. The old covenant was made up of over 600 laws. The vast majority of them don’t apply to us today in the new covenant with Jesus but some still do. Do you know how we can know which ones we can ignore and which ones we still need to obey? It’s going to be a rich time together. I can’t wait to see you.
Love you guys,
Scott
