Church Life
� FIRST READING FOR MEMBERSHIP TRANSFER: Barry & Debbie Stentzel to Chewelah.
� *Children’s Church: We have started a program at church for children ages 2 – 12 during the sermon time. This is an age-appropriate teaching time we are calling Children’s Church. All children who wish to go, and with parents’ consent, will be dismissed when the sermon begins and need to be picked up when church is over.
� Fire Evacuation: If you are in an area that is being evacuated due to fire and need a place to stay, the Bacons are offering their home as a shelter. Contact Shelley Bacon at 509-675-5003.
� Family In Need: Twyla Burch’s brother (Toby Seaton) and his wife and two children lost their home and all their belongings on Aug. 1 in the Old Trails Fire in Spokane. If you feel impressed to help them get back on their feet, you can contact Twyla or Justin to give them your donations. Right now the best way to help is through monetary donations rather than items since they don’t have any place to store items at this time. They are extremely grateful for everyone’s generosity and kindness and say thank you.
� Shirley Fields: (Mother of Heidi McMahon and Tammy Schreven) passed away on Sunday, July 19. If you knew and loved Shirley, the family invites you to join them in her Celebration of Life service at the Colville Adventist Church on Sunday, August 23 at 2pm. To attend the light meal following the service, please RSVP to Heidi McMahon at 509-680-1622.
� Folk Mountain Gospel Concert: With Don & Donna Mohl will be presented at the Colville SDA Church on Sabbath evening, August 29 at 7pm. You will not want to miss this amazing concert.
� Church Campout: A church campout is planned for September 4-7 at Princess Pine 4-H camp ground on Gillette Lake across from Beaver Lodge. The camp is about 25 miles out of Colville on Hwy 20 (Tiger Hwy). There is plenty of room for tents and RV’s, and lots of beds between the four cabins and the main lodge. We are looking forward to some “down time” to be together and have some fun. No need to register to camp. Just show up. Day use is also fine. Please see the attached paper for more details on meals and programing.

Hello Friends,
I have more information on the church campout coming up September 4-7 at Princess Pines 4-H camp.
The church will be hosting three meals and we need an RSVP for the meals for food planning purposes.
Friday evening will be a special meal since the kids will be preparing it with adult supervision. Supper will be served at 6:00 so the kids who wish to participate need to be at the camp by 4:30. Everything needed for the prep will be supplied.
The other two meals will be Sabbath lunch and Sunday breakfast.
We plan to have an evening worship together around our imaginary campfire Fri, Sabbath and Sun. Camp ends on Monday. There is seating in the dining hall, but bring your own as well for other events such as the evening worship.
RSVP for meals – please check all that apply:
