Don’t worry about planning activities this weekend, we’ve done it for you! Come visit our Garage Sale in which all funds will go to support our summer missions teams, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday. If you have items to donate, collection drop off is today and tomorrow at the Soteno’s house, 211 Willow Bend, Bolingbrook.
Then, drop off your children for dinner and activities and enjoy a date night! Babysitting will be provided at The Sanctuary Saturday from 6-8:30 p.m. Cost is $20 for the first child or $30 for more than one child in a family. Please RSVP here if you plan to attend. Additional dates offered are July 15, Aug. 19 and Sept. 16.
Here are some additional opportunities in the next few months to support our short term missions teams:
GIVING TILE BOARD
Visit the Giving Tile boards located in the lobby and choose a numbered tile that corresponds with the amount you would like to give. The teams appreciate donations in any amount, large or small!
BASEBALL NIGHT
Join other Sanctuary families for a fun evening at a Joliet Slammers game on June 23! Tickets are $10 each. Half of the ticket price goes back to the Student Life Good Works missions trip. Invite a friend! Tickets will be available at the Info Table on Sunday and at Student Life on Monday evenings.
VBS
Hey, kids! You are invited to an exciting week of Vacation Bible School July 31 to Aug. 4! At Ocean Commotion, kids will dive deep into the account of Noah and the Flood from the book of Genesis! They’ll learn to apply the spiritual lessons from Noah’s life to their own. And, along the way, they’ll get to dig into the science behind the Flood through exciting science experiments! Each day will include crafts, games, music, snacks and fun with friends! VBS is open to children ages 4 to 10. Cost is $15, which includes a t-shirt. Please register by July 17: cometothesanctuary.org/vbs.
