Weekly Update, July 10th, 2026
Hi Church,
We have an important week of ministry ahead of us. We are sending out a mission team to Germany as well as the summer camps for our kids and students. Will you pray for protection, salvations, and powerful fellowship, ministry, and teaching? Most of all, let us pray for God to be glorified in everything!
Sunday Evening Service
Please join us this Sunday night 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 multipurpose room.
Family Devotion Night
What if you could take a night off from cooking AND be equipped to have family devotions? Join us Wednesday, July 29 at 6pm for a meal and we will show you how to have a simple family devotion that can impact your family. This event is for the whole family. Please register in the church app or at the Connect Center.
Women’s Ministry Sip & Paint
Please join us Saturday, August 1st from 3-5pm for our first Sip & Paint! Ashley VanSant, a local artist born and raised in Kent County, MD, loves helping others learn how to experience the joy of expressing yourself through art! She will teach us how to paint a beautiful piece of art as we fellowship together. Light snacks and drinks (non-alcoholic) provided. Open to high school girls. Cost is $25 per person. Please register in the church app or at the Connect Center.
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.
75th Anniversary Celebration
We're excited to celebrate our church's 75th anniversary on Sept. 12th & 13th! We plan to make different displays of our church's history. To help us, contact the church office if you can provide the following: photos of church events, church directories, contact info for former church members who may like to attend, and 5-10 volunteers for short video testimony of what the church has meant to you or special stories of God’s grace.
Next Sermon Series
Who is Jesus? That is the question of questions. Jesus asked his disciples that pointed question and we all need to think deeply about it. Join us for this incredible passage where Jesus also declares the unstoppable mission of the church! This two-part series, “Who Do You Say I Am?,” will cover Matthew 16:13-20 and begin next Sunday.
SonShiners Lunch
The SonShiners (55 ) will meet on Friday, July 17 at 12pm in the multipurpose room to share lunch and celebrate America’s 250th birthday! Be sure to show your patriotism by wearing red, white and blue. The church will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, rolls, and drinks. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share. Sign up at the Connect Center or in the church app.
Widow’s Walk Gathering
The next Widow’s Walk gathering will be on Saturday, July 18 at noon at Brenda Hallmark’s home. This is a BRING NO FOOD event. They will have Subway sandwiches and an ice cream bar. If you are able, please bring $5 to help with the cost of the food. Also bring an example to share of how God has walked with you since becoming a widow. It might be a Bible verse, a practice, or words of wisdom. Sign up in the church app or at the Connect Center.
VBS Volunteers and Parents
Please remember to fill out the brief survey about VBS by this Sunday evening. It was emailed to you on July 7.
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.
The Bless App
Using technology and publicly available records, the Bless App equips Christians to know their neighbors by name and prompts us to pray regularly for our neighborhood. Obedience to the Great Commission begins with prayer, and the Bless App guides us toward daily prayer for the people we pass every day in our community.
So far, twenty-five families at Weems Creek have committed to praying for their neighbors. Over the past several months, Weems Creek has adopted 1,192 homes and prayed for the spiritual welfare of those homes 3,060 times. We need you to join us in praying for the families of Anne Arundel County, asking God to bring salvation and transformation to our communities.
All you need to do is sign up at app.blesseveryhome.com. You'll start receiving daily reminders to pray for your neighbors, along with encouragement to build relationships that can lead to Gospel conversations.
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.
