July 2026 Message

July is one of my favorite months. I think of it as the high part of the summer. Outdoor activities, cookouts, camping, and swimming, July 4th, beach days, and so on. I tend to look at July as a month that is a shame to miss out on fun. At least that's how I looked at it as a kid. Of course, it's still a lot of work to make all that fun happen, especially as an adult. But July is still an opportunity, as all months are, to try and learn to enjoy and appreciate life.

Too often, we forget to enjoy the gifts of life, but these things are a blessing from God. So take a little time this summer to rest, relax, and enjoy life. There will be plenty of time to deal with the work and troubles of this world.

Ecclesiastes 8:15 ESV

And I commend joy, for man has nothing better under the sun but to eat and drink and be joyful, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of his life that God has given him under the sun.

Vacation dates and coverage:

This July, I plan to take a two-week vacation, from July 8th to the 21 . While I'm away, Ron and Cindy will handle the worship services and preaching, and emergency call coverage will be handled by William Carpenter from Linganore UMC from the 8th to the 15th, and by Mark Gorman from Calvary UMC from the 16 through to the 21 .

You can reach William Carpenter at 904-729-9484 and Mark Gorman at 443-458-2092.

Should you need to call, please leave a message. Like most of us, they are now screening their calls because of the junk calls we all receive these days.

Events this month:

July 11 - Dinner on the Grounds at Zion. 2-6 pm Chicken dinner for $15. The Salem Bottom Boys are playing at 4 pm.

July 20-24th - Private Art Camp at Taylorsville

July 25th - VBS at Zion
