<div>Dear Church Family and Friends,</div>
<div>Tomorrow, July 23, we will have a very special communion Sabbath here at Downers Grove. I want to encourage you with some words of inspiration as we approach the sacred Sabbath hours.</p>
</div>
<div><strong>Communion Sabbath</strong> – “As brethren of our Lord, we are called with a holy calling to a holy, happy life. Having entered the narrow path of obedience, let us refresh our minds by communion with one another and with God. As we see the day of God approaching, let us meet often to study His word and to exhort one another to be faithful unto the end. These earthly assemblies are God&#8217;s appointed means by which we have opportunity to speak with one another and to gather all the help possible to prepare, in the right way, to receive in the heavenly assemblies the fulfillment of the pledges of our inheritance.” MRV7, p98</p>
</div>
<div><strong>On Sunday there will also be a church social from 6-8 PM:</strong></div>
<div><strong>Vegetarian Food Fest</strong> &#8211; please join us Sunday at 6:00 PM for a Vegetarian Food Fest. Bring your favorite dish to share. There will be more information given on this tomorrow at the announcement time. This is a great opportunity to come together and is organized by the Church social committee.</p>
</div>
<div>I wish you a blessed Sabbath evening as we prepare to receive Gods blessings,</div>
<div>Pastor Joe</div>
</div>
</div>

<span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Listen Now!</strong></span></p>
<p></strong><strong>Scripture Reading:</strong></p>
<h2>1 Samuel 13:5-7(King James Version)</h2>
<p>And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.<br />
When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed,) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.<br />
And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.</p>

<p></strong><strong>Scripture Reading:</strong></p>
<h2>Isaiah 41:1-4(King James Version)</h2>
<p>Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment. Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow. He pursued them, and passed safely; even by the way that he had not gone with his feet.Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he.</p>
