PRAISE POINTS
We began a pilot project to team with Chavez Middle School to provide 30 “meals in a bag” at the end of each month for Chavez families that would benefit from receiving food. We call the meals “blessing bites.” We will complete our three-month pilot in June and prayerfully consider our “next right step” to serve our neighbors. We completed a six-month Mission Igniter journey to review and refresh Living Hope’s mission and vision. This included an initial five-person core team joined in the last two months by a team of 12. We believe that God has a future and a hope for His church here in Eugene. - Pastor Debbie Powell led a Spiritual Direction Day for 35 women. The focus was to help women hear God’s voice, love His instruction, and anticipate the working of the Holy Spirit in their lives. One participant who attends another local church has invited Pastor Debbie to lead their women through a similar experience.

PRAYER POINTS We hope to connect with college interns from Bushnell University to serve in worship, outreach, and youth ministries.
As we conclude our third year of hosting a Fellowship of Christian Athletes Breakfast Huddle, the core of our students have graduated. Please pray that this summer and fall we can connect with a second generation of students for this on-gong ministry.
We will host outdoor “home church” events at the end of June, July, and August. Please pray that these events will be an “on ramp” for connections with people who do not yet have a home church.
