THANK
YOU
Thanks
to all of your for your patience as our normal Wednesday night schedule has
been disrupted this Summer. This is unprecedented and we will work hard to
prevent such a disruption in Journey meetings in the future.
UPDATE
ON RICHARD DETWILER
I just
had the wonderful pleasure of speaking over the phone with Richard & Donna
at St. Thomas – Mid Town Hospital. Richard is recovering from a brain aneurysm
incident. His procedure last Monday was successful and today he was sharp as
ever and talking about CLC people and Journey focus groups in our conversation.
This couple are troopers and are so committed to the body of Christ and kingdom
of God. Please continue to pray for Richard’s complete and thorough recovery.
If all goes well, he should be released from the hospital this week.
VBS
SETUP
Thanks
in advance to those of you who will come out this Wednesday evening to help set
up for our huge VBS summer outreach scheduled for this weekend. This is a
tremendous opportunity for children in our neighborhood and beyond to come and
receive the gospel at a level of their understanding. VBS is always tons of fun
for the kids and more importantly a prime opportunity for young people to meet
Christ as their Lord and Savior. Remember, an adult never stands so talk as
when they stoop to help a child.
If you
would like to come out and pray or help set up, please join the CLC family and
pitch in. If you would like to volunteer to serve in some capacity this weekend
in VBS, contact Renae at rluketic@clctn.org.

SHOOTING
UP A FLARE! NEW COUPLE TO CLC NEEDS HELP!
I met
a lady at the Discover Lunch yesterday named Kisha whose husband is driving a
moving van from New York to Murfreesboro this week. I asked her who was helping
her unload and they don’t know anybody in our town. I gave her my cell # and
asked her to call me when she knew when he would be arriving. Wouldn’t it be
nice if we could get up a group from CLC to go over and help them unload their
moving van? Would you be willing to do that? If you would email me, I will text
you time and address for your GPS to drop by and lend a helping hand. What an
opportunity to make a good impression to this new family to our community. No
strings attached just the love of God manifest in a practical way!
WOMEN’S
CONNECTION BRUNCH
Ladies,
mark your calendars to attend to the Women’s Connection Brunch on Saturday,
August 2 from 10-11:30am at the church sanctuary. Ladies are asked to bring a
breakfast side dish and the main course will be provided. There will be lots of
fellowship fun time plus an “preview of coming attractions” time to let ladies
know how you can get connected in the Fall. Here’s what I’d like to ask –
please use your influence as a leader at CLC and invite ladies you know are not
connected, new to the church, or in your friendship circle to come with you to
this event. The personal touch is how we are going to populate our Journey
groups this Fall and build kingdom relationships. Please sign up for this event
at this link here.
MEN’S
ROUND UP TIME
Brothers,
please plan on coming to the Men’s Round Up Time on Saturday, August from
NOON-3pm at the church sanctuary. We will be having corn-hole toss, a Chili
Cook Off, and also sharing a “preview of coming attractions” for men to connect
this Fall. Please plan on coming and bringing some men with you that you would
like to see go to a Men’s Freedom Weekend, get involved in a Journey group, or
attend our upcoming Men’s Retreat with Hal Santos late August. Please sign up
for this event at this link here.
