The Sequence game is about to commence.
As good followers of Jesus Christ, we at United Christian Church love each other, care for one another, support one another, uphold one another in prayer…
…and we compete ruthlessly, going all out to WIN!
Well, that last one is not always true. But we do like to have fun, and we like to do so iin the company of people whom we know and love deeply. This is why Family Game Night is so important. We bring snacks. We bring board games. And yes, we do bring our A game into competition. But we do so with great fun because we know that ultimately what matters is the blessing of one another’s company.
At the last Game Night, Whist and Sequence were the big games. Ken introduced a new, quick, and really weird version of Backgammon. And Stephanie vows never to lett married couples play on the same Sequence team.
The next Game Night is Friday, July 7, starting at 6:30 pm. Bring a snack. Bring a game. (Ken promises to bring another weird one.) Bring kids. Come join the family!
Installation service for James King as pastor at United Christian Church Country Club Hills will take place as part of the 10:30 am Sunday morning worship on July 16. A catered lunch will follow.
Our church will be sponsoring a bus trip to the Illinois State Fair in Springfield on August 15. We do this to have fun, but also to open up to others and invite them to join our delight. So–invite friends and neighbors. Celebrate the accomplishments of 4-H students and crafty adults. Lose yourself on a midway ride. Take the opportunity to eat something entirely unhealthy. (Or not!) And let’s just relax in one another’s good company. Details in the flyer.
