Weekly Update, June 26th, 2026
Hi Church,
As our nation celebrates its 250th anniversary, it is a great time to reflect on Christianity's remarkable impact on our country's founding. On July 5th and 12th, we will explore specific biblical truths that powerfully shaped our nation. Also, what about the future of America? As Christian citizens, we need to know how God deals with nations and pray accordingly.
Germany Mission Trip
This summer, we are sending a team of seven people to serve at an English Camp in Wölmersen Germany. We invite the Weems Creek family to join this mission in two ways:
Please pray for our team as they prepare for the trip. Pray for the volunteers who will be serving alongside them. And pray that those who do not yet know Christ will be drawn to a saving relationship with Jesus.
Prayerfully consider supporting the team financially. Your generosity helps make it possible for our team to serve and share the Gospel with students who may never have heard it clearly before.
Vacation Bible School Snacks & Shirts
Thank you to those who signed up to bring an ingredient or item for Neon Snacks! If you haven’t dropped off your donation yet, this Sunday, June 28, is the day. Didn’t get a chance to sign up for Neon Snacks? We have another opportunity for you to help! We’d love to stock the VBS Lounge with treats as a special way to thank our amazing staff each night. Would you be willing to contribute a snack or dessert? Store-bought and homemade goodies are both welcomed. Thank you for helping us make our volunteers feel appreciated.
VBS t-shirts will be available Sunday in the atrium. They are $12 for kids and adult sizes. Grab yours and be ready to shine at “Illumination Station” this Sunday night!
Orioles Faith Night
Sunday is the last day to sign up and get tickets! Our next church-wide fellowship is the Orioles Faith Night on Thursday, July 9th! The game starts at 6:35pm and is against the Chicago Cubs. After the game, some players will share their testimonies and there will be a postgame Christian concert, all included with the ticket price. We have seats reserved in section 346 which is covered and between home plate and third base. Tickets are $24 and must be purchased by this Sunday. Please sign up in the church app or at the Connect Center. We will be taking the minibus but it will be a long walk between the bus and gate so it may not be a good option for those with mobility or respiratory issues.
Sunday Evening Service
Please join us on Sunday night, July 12th at 6pm for a special service. Caden Mewshaw, who has been serving in our church’s Fellowship program this summer, will preach, and we will have a time of prayer for our nation. We will meet in the multi-purpose room.
Prayer for America
The greatest way to serve our nation is to pray for it (Proverbs 14:34, 1 Timothy 2:1-4). Ultimately, God rules the nations and we should pray accordingly. We have a one week guide that provides a daily prayer focus, available at the Connect Center. We will pray as a church the week of July 5 and join together to have corporate prayer at the Sunday night service on July 12th.
Prayer for Revival
Join us for an hour as we pray for our nation, state and community. We meet on the second Thursday of every month from 11am-12pm in the Student Ministry room. Our next Prayer for Revival is July 9th.
Museum of the Bible
Weems Creek Church has been invited to offer our members and attenders a free one-year Light on a Hill membership to the Museum of the Bible for each family. This is a great way for you and your family to engage in the transformative power of the Bible through various exhibits and experiences. For your family to receive a free membership, you must access the registration page https://qrco.de/bgqAOE. Use the promo code “NEWMEMBER2026” at checkout to secure the free membership. There is additional information at the Connect Center.
Student Summer Nights
WCS week is a week full of games, food, and lessons centered on the gospel and knowing Jesus. Students are encouraged to bring friends as each night will focus on a unique aspect of the gospel message, culminating in our need to surrender our lives to Jesus! The final day of WCS will be an all-day event at Guppy Gulch. Dates are August 10-13 from 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm. Cost for Guppy Gulch is $20 per student. Please register here or in the church app.
Notes from “The Problem with Evil” Class
The notes from this class will be available at the Connect Center on Sunday.
Parking
Recently, we have had people pull into the parking lot on Sunday morning but weren’t able to find a spot in the front lot so they left. If you are able, please park in the back parking lot so that our guests will have available spots in the front.
