Hi Friends!
Praying for us this week following Paul's example:
Gracious God, thank You for Your grace and peace to us and for preserving these words across centuries that we may know You, love You, & believe You. We need you as we encounter the encouragement, exhortation, correction, and path-straightening power of Your word through Paul to the Philippians.
We need Your help understanding love Your Way. Sometimes we just want to stay the same because it's familiar and easy. But thank You that You understand our sin-warped affections and bent toward selfishness. I pray that we would grasp love Your way and live it out so practically and tangibly that we will be known as Yours because of our love, just like Jesus taught. Thank You for loving us! Get Your glory from the breath You have given us.
All glory, praise, power, and honor are Yours, Amen.
Notables:
We are highlighting Royal Family Kids Camp for the next few weeks to invite anyone called to give to make it possible for children to attend this life-changing camp. $500 sends one kiddo to camp. Sign-ups are still open for counselors. For every counselor who commits, another child gets to go to camp. Will you pray with us for all these dear little ones and those giving their time?
VBS Kids' Sign-ups open this Sunday! Servant Team sign-ups are growing! What a week it's going to be as we focus on Jesus as the Light of the World!
See you Sunday,

Royal Family KIDS serves children in hard places. These kiddos have often seen the world at its worst. Many carry trauma they didn’t ask for, and struggle to trust adults.
Through Royal Family Kids Camp, one week each summer and mentoring throughout the rest of the year, children are paired with committed adults who demonstrate the love of Jesus.
Whether you pray, give, or commit to being a counselor with Royal Family KIDS camp, you make it possible for more children to receive love and build memories that last a lifetime. Thank you!
When: June 6-12
Where: TBA
Requirements for Camp Counselors: Background check & interview with Camp Directors. Please register by May 1st.
