Good morning everyone.
Here is the link to Sundays service for anyone who missed it. https://youtu.be/ZxEZRtafkN8
Don’t forget about these dates (Salem, you are of course welcome to come but these are in Eugene):
· This Saturday 6/4 is our June “1st Saturday” event. Since we are doing the potluck on Sunday the advisory team decided to change the theme from “BBQ & Baking Cook Off” to a movie night.
We’ll be watching Encanto & think it would be fun if everyone could bring their favorite Latin style treats. I’ll be brining chips & guacamole! Snacks & fellowship start at 6:00, the movie will start at
7:00.
· This Sunday 6/5 is Pentecost & we will also be celebrating Logan Eshlemans graduation. We will be having a potluck after service. Please bring a main dish or a salad & dessert. We will be having brownie Sundays, so we need some non-dessert too! 😊
· Avenue Champions & Pastors – We will be having Zoom meetings on 6/13 & 6/27 (both Mondays) with Mike & Heber to discuss the upcoming OTW event; meeting time is yet to be determined. Separate emails will be sent with the meeting link. These meetings are mandatory.
The theme for next week is the Spirit who sustains.
Scripture passages:
· Psalm 104:24-35b
· Acts 2:1-21
· Romans 8:14-17
· John 14:8-17, 25-27

REMINDERS:
· Please set up Amazon Smile to automatically make donations when you shop. There are separate numbers for text to give for each congregation; Eugene is 1-458-209-2209, Salem is 1-971-273-5588. If you need help getting set up with either Amazon Smile or texting donations, please see a member of the advisory team & we would be happy to help you.
· I will continue to add any prayers received on request slips during Sunday service to the prayer wall on our website unless the slip specifically says that it is not to be posted on-line. The prayer wall is available 24/7 for anyone to add a prayer. Although the prayer wall is on Eugene’s website it is also open for Salem members to use! Once at https://gcriverroad.com/ hover over the ANNOUNCEMENTS heading at the top of the screen & then click on Prayer Wall when it appears. Scroll to the bottom of the prayer list to enter your request into the provided fields. The name field is required; however, if you would like to add a request anonymously, you can enter “anonymous” there. You will still have to enter your email address, but it will not be posted anywhere. Once you have filled out the four fields (name, email, prayer request & select to share), click submit to post your request to the wall.
