Are you are interested in taking the next step in your commitment at The Sanctuary? Then plan on attending a Membership Class right after second service Sunday. If after attending the class you decide you want to become a member, you need to fill out and submit the application provided at the Info Table and an elder will contact you to set up a time for discussing your personal testimony. Please sign up at the Info Table to attend the class. Lunch will be provided. New members will be welcomed at our Annual Meeting in September.

LUNCH WITH THE PASTORS
If you are new to The Sanctuary, make plans to join us for Lunch with the Pastors right after second service on August 28. This is a great opportunity to learn more about our mission and vision, get to know Pastor Ronn and Pastor John and, of course, enjoy lunch together. Childcare will be provided. Sign up at the Info Table if you plan to attend.

TOOLS FOR SCHOOL
It’s that time of year again when school supplies start filling the shelves, and we begin to think of how to best prepare for another year of growth and learning. But for some in our community, buying school supplies can be a stress and financial burden. Because of this, we have been teaming up with the DuPage Township each year in their Tools for Schools drive. To take part, start looking for those sales on school supplies and bring your donations to church July 24, 31 and Aug. 1. Then, plan to join us Aug. 8 for a fun, high-energy packing night at The Sanctuary.

SCHOOL PRAY
You are invited to gather at Humphrey Middle School in Bolingbrook for prayer July 24. Before heading out to Humphrey, we will meet in the Green Room at 12:30 p.m. to share refreshments, and to learn about what prayer is and how God uses it. It is not only going to be an amazing opportunity to be active in the community, but is also a way to create spiritual memories for your entire family.

WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY
Ladies, please plan on attending a summer weekly Bible Study, where a new topic will be discussed each week. Come as often as you can from 9:30 to 11 a.m. on Fridays to Emily Sault’s house at 941 Canyon Run Rd., Naperville. Childcare will be provided for a nominal fee. For more information and to sign up, please email [email protected] or call 630-209-4915.

JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL
Thrive and Crossfire, our junior high and high school ministries, meet from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Mondays for student-led worship, large group teaching, small group discussion and tons of FUN! Feel free to arrive at 6:30 for hangout time.

Help us celebrate our graduating seniors at a special youth group night Aug. 1. The whole church body is invited to join us at Crossfire, starting at 7 p.m. We will honor the seniors and encourage them in what God has done and will do in their lives. Enjoy a festive atmosphere and refreshments while sending off the seniors on their next big adventure!
