I’ve been meaning to ask…what do you need?
This week’s scriptures (Job 2:11-13 and 2 Timothy 4:9-18) present us with two rather dire situations. Job has lost everything—children, livelihood, shelter, and health—and his friends arrive to offer support. Paul, writing to Timothy from prison, is similarly desperate, having been abandoned by many of his compatriots during a time of persecution. One group sits in silence; the other receives a barrage of requests, condemnations, and exhortations. Each story invites us to reflect on the power and empowerment of the question, “what do you need?”
We’ll also take up our July Birthday Bank offering (supporting the Quilting Ministry), and offer prayers for Pastor Jen as she departs to chaplain a week at Camp Wanakee.
Come, just as you are, to worship the God who invites us to ask and receive.

We thank you for your gracious and continued giving, which allows us to ask the question, “what do you need?” and offer meaningful, material responses to our neighbors throughout the year. Scholarships for camp? A space to meet? Medical equipment? A meal or someone to share it with? Thank you for enabling us to say, “we can do that.” You can give securely online via Vanco.
There is no live stream for this service. Children’s activities will be available in the tent adjacent to the worship tent.
