This Sunday our online service will be streamed live from the Great Hall. Normally this will begin at 11:00 a.m., however, this Sunday we will be doing our final test and it will not be posted until about 12:30 p.m. But if all goes well, it will begin each week at 11:00 a.m. after that. This is a change from how we have been offering the online service when anyone could watch the service beginning early Sunday morning. But after this Sunday, you'll need to wait until 11:00 a.m., however, you can watch it any time after that. Our staff has been working hard to make this transition and we hope everything goes as planned this Sunday. We realize that online worshippers comprise the largest group of people participating in our worship at this time.

This Sunday, JCPC member Victoria Melin Robinson will be our guest preacher. Victoria grew up in this church and is planning to attend Columbia Theological Seminary this fall. We're excited to have Victoria come and preach both the drive-in service and the in-person indoor service in our Great Hall which will be live streamed.

At the present time, Victoria is Director of Youth Ministries at First Presbyterian Church in Greer, South Carolina. She is married to Melvin, who will also be sharing his musical gifts in our worship service. Victoria is also the daughter of Dawn and Johnny Melin.

As most of you know by now, I am having my surgery on my back this Friday, June 11. Thank you to everyone who has expressed their concern, and who has been and will be praying for a good outcome. I will be off for about 6 weeks, and I am planning to return to the office on July 26. Until that time, Brian will be functioning as Head of Staff. I know our staff will have everything under control while I am gone. We also have great elders led by Rick Zellmer, our Clerk of Session. I look forward to returning to you after my surgery with a healed back.

We have something very exciting planned for the morning of our next Fifth Sunday on August 29^th, which we will be sharing with you in the coming days. It is something you will not want to miss here at Johns Creek Presbyterian Church!

Prayer for Today

Gracious God, we belong to you. You know us, you love us, and you watch over us. Through these ongoing times of change and transition, fill us with your Spirit -- that we may serve you and one another in the name of Christ. Amen.
