Highlights from Council and Staff
  • The church has several LARGE PRINT  “Christ in our Home” devotional booklets for July-September. If you would like one, call or text Dean Z.
  • Today is the first day for the transition to Mailchimp! This will be a slow transition, but please be mindful if you do not see the Monday e-blast 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 e-blast, her hope is that it is a smooth transition to a paper based option that is set to occur later in the Summer.
  • Women’s Bible Study will be meeting next Tuesday night at 7 pm. Please see next week’s e-blast for meeting information
  • Pastor Marty will be on vacation from July 18 through August 1st. Services will continue as scheduled on YouTube and coffee hours and small group meetings will still happen on Zoom. The emergency pastor’s contact information will be on the next email blast.

If any of these prayer requests have been turned into praise reports please email OSLC915@gmail.com

Prayer Requests:

We mentioned various prayer requests within small groups on Sunday. As a collective and not being specific, we lift up those who have suffered a loss (job, income, family), 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. 
 
Praise Reports:
We thank God for new job opportunities and positive medical reports.
Care of Creation
“Gratitude is the antidote for greed”
Rev Anne Morawski, retired ELCA campus pastor at UNM.

Action: Anne’s remark came after reading Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, Potawatomi Native. It is a beautifully poetic and moving book of native stories related to environmental spirituality of native peoples and their deep gratitude for the earth. Join discussions of books and ideas with the Rocky Mountain Synod Green Team on the second Saturday of the month at 10:am. Details in the Synod econnections.
