Weekly Check-In - August 2, 2025
I am very much looking forward to worship tomorrow at Hebron. And to the Potluck to follow. We are celebrating the past twenty years of ministry together and I know that a lot of work has gone on to get ready for it. I am so appreciative of Judy Morris' providing leadership for this day and to everyone who has helped and who is planning to be present. It has been a blessing to share these past twenty years and I look forward to the celebration!

Tuesday Prayer Group: Will meet this Tuesday, August 5, at 11:00 a.m. in the Activities Building.
Apologies for the absence of the Wednesday Evening Prayer video this past week. It will be back this week and most likely even on Wednesday where it belongs. We are going through a study of the book of Acts that I wrote several years back. So far we are most of the way through Acts 2. If you would like to catch up and be ready for this Wednesday you can watch the first three videos on our website, hebronpc.net.
Guest To Share On School Partnership: For the past several years we have had a mission partnership with Bullitt Central High School. The relationship was cultivated by Beverly Caple and Ray Baker who got to know a BC resource person named Christy Hardin. A couple of years ago Christy came and shared with us about the needs she sees in the school. We have used some of our money from the Pentecost Offering (more on that in a moment), from the Presbyterian Women, and from individual donors to help meet some of the needs we are made aware of as they arise. This is a way we are able to make a direct impact on the lives of people in our community. In two weeks, on August 10, Christy will be here to share with us again during morning worship.
The Pentecost Offering, which I mentioned earlier, is an offering of our denomination which is intended to support ministry with young people, both locally and at the level of the national church. It is one of the mission offerings of the Presbyterian Church USA. We will be receiving that offering on August 10. Sixty percent of the offering is sent to the national church for ministry at that level with children, youth, and young adults. Forty percent stays here at Hebron and our Session continues to support the use of that forty percent to aid in our mission partnership with Bullitt Central.
Yard Sale Dates: The dates for the Presbyterian Women's Fall Yard Sale are August 29-30 and September 5-6. It's a good time to be thinking about what treasures you might want to donate to the Yard Sale effort. Also, again, all help is appreciated. Set up will begin on Monday, August 25.
Celebrate Life!
