And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy 2:2

Dawson wants to make worship in the Sanctuary easily accessible for all of our members and guests. A special area has been created for wheelchairs and other transport devices in the upper right-hand balcony. This will allow families to worship together by entering the Sanctuary from the 2nd Floor of the Arendall Building in lieu of utilizing the elevators on the far side of the Sanctuary. This new area is in addition to the location already available for placing wheelchairs and walkers in the lower left-hand transept during worship. For more information on wheelchair or other transport device accessibility at Dawson, please visit our website or contact Debbie Moss, Dawson’s Health & Wellness Minister, at dmoss@dawsonchurch.org.

Monday, July 22–Thursday, July 25, 9:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m.

Every year, we host a four-day Hispanic VBS on the Dawson campus. It is our church’s largest outreach to the surrounding Hispanic community. Over 100 children attend—many will hear about the love of Jesus for the first time. There are over 60 spots to fill! Our greatest need is for leaders in the Bible study classrooms, Kindergarten through 6th grade. We need both lead teachers and assistants. Other areas of service include: nursery care, music, crafts, recreation, and snacks. All classes are in English so you do not need to know any Spanish to help. For those with children, this is a great opportunity to get your kids involved and serve together. We do offer nursery care. Will you consider joining us this year? There is a place for you. For volunteer information, please contact Wendy Adams at 731.225.8295 or wendy.vz.adams@gmail.com.

Dawson’s Chapel Choir has begun their Mission Tour in Ecuador. From June 14 through June 23, students will be worshipping with local churches and performing concerts in the community.

Please join us next Sunday, June 23, at 6:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary for our Home Concert or via livestream at live.dawsonchurch.org.
