THIS SUNDAY - EMMAUS ROAD IN BELLEVUE, SHORELINE

Instead of meeting at our regular time and place in Belltown at the Seattle School, Emmaus Road is invited to explore two options to build local connections with congregations and area ministries:


SATURDAY NIGHT CONCERT 7-8:30PM
Benefit Concert for Aurora Commons
Bellevue CRC - 1221 148th Avenue NE, Bellevue, WA
Bring canned goods, enjoy a variety of music, meet people from your sister congregations and ministries, and support the work of Aurora Commons. Our very own Sax'a'Bone Cirkus  (Pastor Eric Likkel and Dan Ruiter) from Emmaus Road will join a roster of diverse musicians Saturday night to raise awareness and support for the ongoing ministry of Aurora Commons.  Launched by Awake CR Church  this ministry along Aurora Avenue has been serving and reaching a vulnerable population along one of the most spiritually oppressive corridors of our city. Seattle Dream Church, led by Pastor Bomsu Kim, are the event organizers, with Bellevue CR Church offering their facility as hosts.

SUNDAY WORSHIP WITH 1st SEATTLE CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH 10-11AM
Pastor Eric Likkel preaches on second Sundays to one of our sister congregations in Shoreline. This is another opportunity to worship and become acquainted with local partner churches. 
Directions to First Seattle CRC.

SUNDAY CREW DAY & DECALOGUE FOUR

Emmaus Road, it's that time of year: people change routines, scatter, hopefully rest, recreate, etc.  But for us as a church, we also conclude one six month shift of Sunday volunteer roles and begin another.  Fittingly, tomorrow we celebrate SUNDAY CREW DAY, as we appreciate one another's service, AND we listen to the FOURTH COMMANDMENT, receiving the Lord's Sabbath instruction. Service and Sabbath are not enemies, they are friends. There are times to be fruitful, and there are times to prune; both are good. That is what tomorrow's theme will be about.


LIKKEL’S LECTIONS 
Gospel: John 15:1-10
