We had a big day at New Hope yesterday! Our worship service was well-attended, with a count of about 154 in church. Since it was July 4th weekend, I had a couple patriotic hymns in the mix, with a brass quartet and a 10-voice men’s choir—fun! Dewey talked about Jesus’ baptism, and we sang songs about our need for cleansing and what Jesus has done for us.
We then headed over to Dancer Park, where we enjoyed a barbecue potluck together. The weather was perfect, and it looked like everyone had a really nice time. We had some balloon tossing and 3-legged racing, and I got a chance to meet some new people. It was great! Thanks to Repko Bruinsma for the burgers and dogs (and for suggesting the picnic in the first place).
Our softball team improved its record to 3 wins and 2 losses yesterday afternoon with a fun win over Creekside’s #2 team. I sure appreciate Meredith Berthot managing our squad. It’s a lot of fun every week. There are no games scheduled next Sunday because of Turkey-rama, and I’m bummed we don’t get to play!
It’s days like this that make our fellowship a family. We love being a part of the New Hope Christian Fellowship community!
