Hi EPC Friends and Members, 

Here's my "3-2-1" for this week... 

3 EPC Happenings
1. Vacation Bible School is around the corner! Invite your family and neighbors to join us for this week of faith, fun, food, and fellowship! A great week has been planned so invite all the kids in your life to attend! 

2. The EPC Gala for Project C.U.R.E. is on Friday, September 22 and tickets are now available HERE. This will be a wonderful opportunity for fellowship and mission as we aim to send $15,000 to fund the shipment of medical equipment for Malawi! Mark your calendars and get tickets for this great event. 

3. We are looking for volunteers to come and help with the free community meal alongside ICDI and the Tzu Chi Foundation on Saturday, July 15th from 6-7:30PM. Please contact Cristi in the office if you are interested. 
 

2 Interesting Links
1. I came across the BOOK OF BEAUTIFUL QUESTIONS in the Library this week and was sort of taken by the concept and the questions. I love unanswerable questions. 

2. I was talking to a physicist recently who told me that the way she understands how Jesus is both fully divine and fully human is the same way that she thinks about light being BOTH a PARTICLE AND A WAVE. How’s that for a brain bending thought experiment?

“People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.”

— Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
