CURRENT EVENTS & IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

“SUMMER OF LOVE” is a groovy, church-wide adventure fueled by worship, mission, and Jesus' love: the kind of love that shows up for others. Each Sunday, we’ll explore a different expression of that love. But it’s not just about listening — it’s about living it out.

SERVICE PROJECTS: Every Community Group has been invited to spread love across Lee’s Summit and beyond. If your Community Group has not yet chosen a project in which to do this, connect with your group leader to decide how your group will get involved.
 
SERVICE PROJECT WALL: Our Family Ministry is sponsoring the project wall in the Worship Center. There are still lots of suggested projects for you to do on your own, with your family, or with a group so feel free to pick a project from that space. These are projects you can do in an hour or an afternoon!


PRAY FOR SUMMER IMPACT: This month, let’s pray for Youth Camp (July 7-12), Centri-Kid Camp (July 14-18), and our two Guatemala teams (leaving July 15 & 22). Ask God to move powerfully through every conversation and every act of love.

TWILIGHT SWIM – July 8: First Kids & Preschool families, join us at Summit Waves this Tuesday, July 8, from 5–7 PM for Twilight Swim! Slides, wave pool, splash zones - and friends! Look for Rachel and Kimberley at the entrance. Tickets are limited, so grab yours now!

PLAYLISTS: To help you interact with God all week long, we've created playlists packed with songs that inspire, uplift, and connect to our sermon series and worship themes. Visit fbcls.info/playlists to find links to all our playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Dive in, sing along, and let these powerful tracks fuel your worship every day!
