Council Update: Next Week (Sunday the 26th) We’ll be praying to dedicate our new council members and their term of service, and thanking the ones who are going on break. Our next Council Meeting is August 6th at 7pm in the Youth Building

We're thankful to be able to announce the result of the congregational voting: Our new office bearers are: Elders: Bouwe Leenstra, Henry Doller & Jim Amels, Deacons: Craig Verblaauw, Mike Bobby. We're running about 30 days behind. So we hope to have a dedication Sunday for them later in this month, and then we'll have our "transfer" meeting - on Thursday August 6th at 7pm in the Youth Building.

GRIEFSHARE A SUPPORT GROUP THAT HELPS PEOPLE HEAL FROM THE PAIN OF GRIEF. What’s next after the memorial service? For many people who have lost loved ones, the feelings of loss only get worse. The mourning continues or gets covered up in unhelpful ways. Goshen Christian Reformed Church is sponsoring a program called GriefShare – it’s a national program that helps people heal from the pain of grief. The program features valuable video teaching from experts and experienced councilors as well as a workbook to help each person work through their own story and a group of people in similar situations to talk with. Join us for 13 sessions on Saturday afternoons at 1pm starting on August 15th in the Goshen Christian School fireside room. Register here or call Deb at 845-381-0533.

The Goshen Food Pantry is handing out groceries twice per month; the second and last Saturday of the month from 9:30 to 10:30 am at the Presbyterian Church. The distribution is 'no contact' as members/volunteers of the pantry load the food into you truck or rear of your vehicle. This food is available to anyone who lives in Goshen or is a member of a participating church. If any of you have been restricted or prevented from working or are struggling with your food supply, this resource is available to you. If you can not make either of the scheduled distribution days, please contact me (Dave Knapp) at 845-610-3100 and I will get you groceries. The pantry is currently in a good place financially. If this 'PAUSE' continues, we may be looking for financial support in the future. We would currently be looking food donations for desserts; cake mix, brownies, jello etc. Also children's snack items; pudding cups, granola bars, crackers with peanut butter and the like. Please stay with smaller portion sizes so that we can impact more families.

If you're stuck at home, I'd encourage you to reach out to another church member esp some of our elderly folks who might need some extra conversations or help during this season. If you are part of Goshen Church, and don't have a pictorial directory, contact us to see how to get one.

We posted some amazing resources for kids, adults and parents. Make sure check out RightNowMedia if you haven't already. We also posted the weekly Kids Church (252) videos, and some ways for parents to teach kids at home.
