First Christian Church - Disciples of Christ (JCMO)

First Christian Church - Disciples of Christ (JCMO) We are a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. As part of the one Body of Christ, we welcome They used to say there is "no creed but Christ."

The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a community of about 800,000 Christians in 3,800 congregations in the United States and Canada. Two groups of frontier Christians came together in 1832 to form the foundation of today's Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). They shared the view that people should not be excluded from fellowship in the church because they didn't adhere to a particular

human-made creed. Today's Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) still thinks that way. We study the Bible to deepen our connection to God through Jesus Christ, and to discover what God wants us to do. We believe that God is calling the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of the 21st century to be a faithful, growing church that demonstrates true community, deep Christian spirituality and a passion for justice. Our mission is to be and to share the good news of Jesus Christ, witnessing, serving and loving from our doorsteps to the ends of the earth. We are devoted to strengthening our congregations for this mission. Some Disciples have liberal views. Others have conservative views. But we share the belief that we are united in our faith that "Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God, the Savior of the World."

This week we follow David’s story as the ark returns to Jerusalem and God’s promise sets his life in motion, while Acts shows Paul continuing his witness even in confinement. Together they invite us to consider what it means to live inside a story that is still unfolding.

This week's readings ask a simple but uncomfortable question: What changes when we remember that God is present? David dances, worships, and shows mercy when he lives from that reality, but he causes tremendous harm when he forgets it. Paul, meanwhile, stands before governors and kings with confidence because he knows he is never standing there alone. Through triumph and failure, celebration and repentance, these readings invite us to consider what it means to live as though God is truly with us.

Do you have extra veggies from your garden? Or, empty egg cartons? The food pantry is collecting surplus garden veggies and clean, empty egg cartons. You can drop off your donations at the church office.

In May, FCC volunteers transitioned the Food Pantry Garden from spring to summer plants. Wow, did everything grow fast! Soon, the Food Pantry will begin seeing the first of the summer harvest - tomatoes, cukes, peppers, beans, garlic! Thank you to our hardy May volunteers - Shelley Dawson, Barb Gage, Georgia Griffith, John Kuebler, Becky and Herb Kuhn, Lura McAllister, and Patty Osman.

Community Christian is tending the garden in June, and FCC will take over care again in July. If you’d like to volunteer, look for the sign up calendar which will be posted in the Gathering Area soon. First-time volunteers are always paired with someone who has volunteered before. It’s a great way to give back to our community, and it’s fun!
