If you were to overhear someone saying that you are a meek person, how would you feel about that? When Jesus goes into the display window of life and changes all the price tags, things you have valued are now of little value. Things that you thought were worthless are now given great value. Won’t you join the conversation?

After Children’s Time, the kids are dismissed for a movie, activities and snacks. This week we’ll talk about what does it means to be called by God? How can we follow God when it’s scary? PLUS–we’ll build simple boats with foil, popsicle sticks and straws and enjoy yummy ham, cheese, pineapple Hawaiian sliders!

The History of Christian ArtTHIS WEEK: Botticelli, Raphael. Reconciling Christianity and Roman Paganism after the Fall of Constantinople
Alexander Nixon teaches art history at the University of Tampa, classes at Ringling College, and beginning this Fall, at Florida Polytechnic. He is a talented artist and his main focus today is sculpture.
Nixon has an MA in Art History (Brooklyn College), Latin American Studies (MA, NYU), and attended Stanford University (BA, Latin American Studies, Studio Art). He was awarded the Nathan Oliveira Award for Painting (Stanford U.). He continues to paint portraits, but his main focus today is sculpture (made from bamboo harvested from neighbors’ homes).
Invite your friends and join us, led by Alexander Nixon in the Conference Room or Zoom.
Drop (Off) Your Drawers—Help Solve the “Drawer Dilemma”
Something as small as a pair of underwear can have a big impact.School starts next month, and many children in our community “shop” at the Clothes to Kids Store on Hillsborough Ave to get their back-to-school clothing. In addition to school clothes, Clothes to Kids gives each child 5 sets of NEW underwear and socks to start the school year. In Hillsborough and Pinellas County alone, that means providing over 80,000 undies for kids in need!
How can Hyde Park Pres help?
Each year HPPC helps Clothes to Kids meet this need in our community. If you are able, purchase NEW in the package underwear for kids age pre-K, to seniors in high school. Young women’s sizes 5-9, boys knit boxers and young men’s knit boxers are a specific need.
Please bring the packages to church by July 27–or use the Amazon list at: https://tinyurl.com/43vp5hfb
Let’s see if we can reach the goal of 100 sets of underwear by the end of July!
Thanks, from your Missions Ministry
