Two Treats at Worship on Oct. 22
There will be two special treats for those who come to church on Sunday, October 22. The first treat will be musical—Edgar Crockett and friends will lead our music in worship. Edgar is a longtime friend of Two Rivers Church. He is an accomplished jazz trumpet player and teacher. It is always a great joy when he comes to play with us in worship.
After church, everyone will get another special treat. There will be several dozen Krispy Kreme Donuts as a treat for our fellowship time. The Junior Rocks Baseball team has sold the donuts as a fundraiser, and an anonymous donor has bought donuts for everyone. There will be regular glazed, lemon, raspberry, and cream donuts available.

Gospel According to Broadway
The Gospel According to Broadway was such a hit last summer that it is coming back for an encore. This summer seven shows will be featured with special performances by local theater veterans. The series will begin on July 30 and last for seven weeks. Each week Pastor Robb will make connections between the show or song, and our Scriptures. Sacred stories do not exist only in the Bible. Stories that illustrate divine truth about God’s love, forgiveness, community, friendship, and grace can be found all around us. Get ready for a reprise of last year’s most memorable series. The Gospel According to Broadway is coming back!

New members lunch
Those who are interested in joining Two Rivers United Methodist Church as members are invited to a lunch at Epworth Hall on Sunday, July 16, at 12:00 p.m. This is the Sunday of worship at Schwiebert Park (which is at 10:30 a.m.), so the timing should work out to come to church right after the service in the park.
At the lunch, families can learn a little history of Two Rivers Church, go over the basics of Wesleyan theology, and learn some about each other and Pastor Robb. A date for the group to take vows of membership will be selected at the luncheon. The lunch will be catered by a local restaurant, so please RSVP ahead of time. Current members who would like to participate are invited as well.
