Church Calendar

All 6th - 12th graders are invited to join us for a pool party at the Hawkins' home! In case of inclement weather, we'll meet at church. Bring a friend!

Everyone is welcome to join the ASLC Book Club!

August's book is HALF A CHANCE by Cynthia Lord.

Lucy’s family has just moved to an old house by a lake. She decides to capture her new home through the lens of a camera. After all, this is what her dad does for a living; and he has taught her a great deal about getting good shots. Finding out that her dad will be judging a photo contest, she decides to enter it anonymously, hoping that it will meet her dad’s standards. While out trying to get the best photos, she meets her neighbor, Nate. During the summer Lucy helps Nate to deal with his grandmother’s fading memory, and they both learn how art and the beauty of the world can change lives.
 

Mark your calendars for Brightview Prayer, Peace & Play Craft Night on Thursday, August 23 5:30pm, at Cross of Glory Lutheran Church. The night will begin with prayer and passing of the peace followed by crafting and fellowship. Bring your own craft to work on. Everyone in the *Brightview community is welcome to attend!

*For the past few months, Abiding Savior has been in conversation with Cross of Glory Lutheran Church, Atonement Lutheran Church and Christ the King Lutheran Church about how we can better serve our community and share God’s love together. Because our churches are located in New Brighton and Mounds View, we are calling the shared ministries between our churches BrightView, combining parts of both cities names.

Already Abiding Savior has a great working relationship with Cross of Glory and Atonement. Together we have
partnered on Vacation Bible School, Thanksgiving Eve worship, God’s Work our Hands Day, and now this year
Confirmation. Moving forward, we are looking for more ways to not duplicate ministries in our churches, but to
share ministries. By sharing we will free up resources of time, energy and finances for new areas of ministry that will reach more people and change more lives. Please note, BrightView is not about mergers or acquisitions, it is about sharing and working together. As we move into these new partnerships and relationships, watch for more BrightView shared ministry opportunities. How exciting to be working together to reach more people
with God’s love!
