This Sunday, July 14th, in place of gathering at Foskett Ranch Elementary, we will worship God by going out into our neighborhoods and loving others.  Do something with your family, friends or home group. There are a two opportunities available for serving the Lincoln community if you would like to join:

• Clean the Lincoln Youth Center and clear out planter boxes behind the building at 391 H Street in Lincoln; meet at 9am to 11am
• Visit elderly residents at the Villa Del Rey Manor at 1660 3rd Street in Lincoln; meet in the dining area at 10am to 10:45am; For more information contact Sabrina Nisan at 209.380.7619

We can't wait to hear how you loved your neighbors!

"This year's Emmaus Family Camp was a great success. We are so very pleased with how many families made it out to Stumpy Meadows and enjoyed participating in the various community building activities. The hike to University Falls, crafts around the campfire, swimming at the lake, Minute 2 Win-It Team Challenge, Dessert Contest and the Sunday morning gathering were all activities that allowed for growth in our relationships with each other. Thank you so very much for joining us, we are already looking forward to the next Annual Emmaus Family Camp. See you there!" 

There will be a Baptism on Sunday, August 18th following the morning gathering.  The Baptism will be held at McBean Park in Lincoln.  If you are interested in being baptized, please contact Rich Lester at rich@emmauscommunity.org by this Sunday, July 14th. 

Each Sunday this summer you will have an opportunity to join an individual, couple or family from the Emmaus Community for lunch!  Just fill out an orange card from the Welcome Table or the baskets passed at the beginning of the gathering with your name, drop it in the offering basket, and you will be randomly paired with another individual, couple or family to share lunch together after the gathering.  You can choose which Sunday(s) you join in and the Club will continue throughout the summer months.  Since "community" is a core value at Emmaus, this is a fun way to get to know other people at Emmaus that you may not have had a chance to meet!  Who doesn't love to eat out?  After the gathering, check the Summer Lunch Club board to see who you are paired with and then pick a spot to go enjoy lunch together, it's that easy!
