Welcome to Our Guests
We extend a warm welcome to our guests today at Canyon Creek. We are honored by your presence, and it is our hope that you will be blessed this morning. We ask that you fill out a visitor’s card located in the card holders on the backs of the pews and place it in the collection plate. Again, thank you for worshipping with us today.
Information for our Visitors: We have an Attended Nursery in the Education Building for babies up to 2½ years old; or, if you’d like to stay with
your child, an Unattended Nursery at the back of the auditorium next to the Foyer.
We have Children’s Church for children ages 2½ through 5 years in the Children’s Church Room in the Education Building. A slide will be flashed on the screen when it’s time for the children to be dismissed for that program. Toward the end of our service, the children’s teachers will bring them back to you for the closing songs.

Please remember the Salado Church of Christ’s Summer Preaching Series on Wednesday nights. We would love to have you join us next week! For the rest of July, Dr. Jeff Peterson will be speaking on “Romans: Rediscovering the Gospel.” There is a children’s program for children up through elementary school at the Salado church. We no longer have a babysitter available here at our building. Remember, if you want to go with someone from church, you must be at Canyon Creek by 6 pm.
On Saturday, July 18, the Divorce Care group will be having a Garage Sale in our Fellowship Room from 8 am to noon. The ones participating will bring their own goods to sell and will manage their own tables. If you’re interested, be sure to come and “shop”!
Please remember to bring your food contributions for our Food Pantry here at our building! There is a white bin just outside the old cry room in which to put your items for the pantry. See Kerri Hensley for more information.
Our elder chairman for the month of July is Kevin Huddleston. If you have any questions or would like to meet with the elders, please get in touch with Kevin, and if necessary, he can put you on the agenda for their meetings. At the present time, because of the Salado Preaching Series, they are not meeting on Wednesday nights, but will be scheduling meetings as necessary. His e-mail address is: kphuddleston@swmail.sw.org.

Thank you so much to everyone who has helped us prepare for this week! Please believe us when we say we could not do it without your help – the meat-cooking; cookie-baking; contributions of soup, cereal, supplies; money to help with the food we have to buy; and, last but not least, the volunteers who will be coming down to help in the kitchen. Every last gesture on your part is so much appreciated.
If you forgot to bring your meat or cookies to the building last week or today, please talk to Debra or Cathy to arrange a time to bring it/them this afternoon. We will be trying to leave by 5 or 6 pm this evening, so we can still get it from you!
There’s still time for you to decide to come down to camp to work for a day – cooking or washing pots and pans! It’s not too late! We also really need someone, usually it has been a “male” member of the church, who could come down and help cook the hamburgers on Thursday afternoon for the evening meal. They have a huge grill outside where the hamburgers are cooked, and of course, Jonathan and/or some of the youth group guys would help you with the task. It takes about an hour and 20 minutes to get to the camp, so it’s not a bad drive. We have maps and driving directions to help you find the camp.
We will be cooking 3 meals a day for a total of about 175 people each meal, so your help is greatly appreciated – AND the campers, counselors and staff will be enjoying all your efforts as well!
Please pray for us as we strive to serve God in this ministry.
