TUMBLERS FOR SALE - $20 EACH
Our 20 oz RTIC tumblers feature the phrase “Our God is Able” from Ephesians 3:20, along with the Lighthouse Bible Church logo. Browse the available colors at the entrance table. Orders will be accepted through August 21, with payment collected at the time of delivery. All proceeds support our Seats for Souls fund!

SEATS FOR SOULS UPDATE
We are currently working closely with architects to carefully design our new space, determine the best seating capacity, and plan all the important details to best serve our church family and community. Because of this, details are not final, including the number of seats. While 800 seats is being discussed, the actual number may be less.
Our new banner represents the next challenge of raising another $1 million by December 31, 2026. We used 800 seats to determine that each seat is worth $1,250. At the end of June, we have raised $1,141,841. We took the $141,841 and divided it by $1,250, which equals 113 seats. (Please note that the banner lacks 80 seats of the 800 so we colored in 33 seats). Praise God for His incredible provision! Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

KAIROS OUTSIDE FUNDRAISING NEED
Donate $10 for a meal ticket
Help bless a woman attending the “Kairos Outside” retreat by sponsoring a meal for just $10. Each “meal ticket” includes your name and church and will be placed at her seat as a reminder she is loved and prayed for. Donate via cash/check (tithe boxes) or online. Please include your name and label it “Kairos Outside - Meal Ticket.” Donations accepted through August.

WICKIES - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Saturday, September 6, around 8am-1pm
The Wickies team is looking for a few handy volunteers to help a church member with a deck repair. It’s a great opportunity to serve and show love in a practical way. If you're available to help, contact Chris Fitzgerald at missions@thelighthousebiblechurch.com.

NURSERY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Sunday mornings, all services
We’re looking for caring volunteers to help in our church nursery! If your children attend the nursery, we’re asking for your help to serve at least once a month. Your support makes a big difference and helps keep this ministry thriving. Please sign up at the bulletin board if interested.
