CYF outing to play whirlyball in Dallas this Wednesday
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Youth in grades 9-12 will take a trip to Dallas tomorrow (Wednesday, June 23) to play whirlyball, an exciting game that combines basketball, lacrosse, and bumper cars. The group will meet at 12:30 p.m. to carpool to Dallas for two hours of play, and should return to the church by 5:00 p.m. You're welcome to bring a friend, but be sure to contact Jessica Vacketta at jessica@uccftw.com so that we have enough seats.

Mission Trip Stock Sale ends this Sunday morning in the Gallery
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This Sunday is the last opportunity to buy stock
in our youth mission trips at the table located in the Gallery. At $10 per share, the
stock helps reduce the cost of each trip for participating youth and earns an
invitation to a "shareholders luncheon" at the end of the summer to hear about
the trips. If you or your child can't make the trip, this is a great way to support youth missions and get an exclusive report about the trips afterward. Just stop by the table in the Gallery Sunday morning after either service or Sunday school.
