Highlights from Council and Staff
- Violet is still working on setting up Mailchimp as our eblast provider and will be postponing the transition until July 13th due to creating the easiest accessibility to our congregation. This will be a slow transition, but please be mindful if you do not see the Monday eblast in your inbox by Tuesday. Please reach out to OSLC915@gmail.com for assistance and troubleshooting.
- If you know of anyone or has checked on those who are shut in or do not have computer access please send their name and physical address to Communications@oslchurchdenver.org. As Violet creates this new eblast, her hope is that it is a smooth transition to a paper based option that is set to occur later in the Summer.
- If you are equipped and have the capability to burn CD’s please let Violet know at Communciations@oslchurchdenver.org. We are working with the Congregational Care and Outreach Committee on various ways to reach out to those who are shut in. Have interest in this committee or how to serve this population? Please email OSLC915@gmail.com and tell us. The committee would love to have you.
- OSLC Staff will be transitioning to different email addresses from our personal emails.
- Pastor Marty: Pastor@oslchurchdenver.org
- Caleb C: MusicDirector@oslchurchdenver.org
- Violet B: Communications@oslchurchdenver.org
- If you don’t know who to send an email to or would like to contact Church Council, please send emails to OSLC915@gmail.com. Violet will continue to filter through this email box and send it to the correct person.

Interest Group Spotlight- Discussions on White Privilege and Anti-Racism
We have had a good turn out for our weekly meetings and would love to have you. If you’re joining us for the first time, come at 5p for a 15-20 minute intro. We will now be opening the room at 5pm. We also use time before the meeting for intro and general discussion, with the formal group still starting at 5:30.
Can’t wait to see you and have a great discussion.

Care of Creation
Listen to the air
You can hear it, feel it,
Smell it, taste it.
Woniya wakan, the holy air,
Which renews all by its breath.
Woniya wakan, spirit, life, breath, renewal,
It means all that,
We sit together, don’t touch,
But something is there,
We feel it between us,
As a presence;
A good way to start thinking about nature,
Talk about it.
Rather talk to it,
Talk to the rivers, to the lakes,
To the winds,
As to our relatives.

Prayer Requests:
We mentioned various prayer requests within small groups on Sunday. As a collective and not being specific, we lift up that everyone stays well and smart during these unprecedented times, we pray for all small businesses and restaurants affected by Covid, we lift up marriages and health factors that are in question, we lift up the caregivers as they care for others, we lift up the first responders as well as the well being of the human race, we pray that we are given the right words and heart when we are faced with those who do not see eye to eye with us, we pray that we are willing to have those tough conversations that are so important to bridge the gaps of difference, we pray for those struggling against white privilege as an individual as well as group, and we pray that though we are undergoing hard times, that we all can rediscover joy under restriction.
