Redwoods, Science Camp, Sidewalks & Art

Two themes emerged in the eulogies offered for Richard Sr. on Saturday: 1) his love for the outdoors and 2) his love for decadent french toast breakfasts. Tomorrow the Parks family will head up the California coast to live into both of these legacies. We're spending the week camping in the Redwood National Forest, and our secret french toast mix is all bottled and ready to go. Please pray that God will lead us beside still waters and restore our souls.

Please also continue checking the prayer guide. Our friend Amy will be posting updates about our Sky's the Limit Science Camp. The camp starts on June 29th so this coming week is critical! Since Amy shares an apartment with Lauren (our program director) she'll be able to keep you current on the challenges, obstacles and works of God that Lauren encounters each day. Stacie Paz will also share information about Streetlamp Studio's ministry with youth. Please pray boldly for God's work in our neighborhood kids and youth this summer!

Lastly, our sidewalk repair campaign is underway, with 13 volunteers starting to survey the damage. Please pray for this group by name as they set out to document problems and listen to their neighbors' concerns. You can also view their findings at the Take a Walk Campaign blog.
