Get ready for a high-energy week where rusty parts, forgotten scraps, and cast-off treasures become something brand new! At Junkyard Redemption VBS, kids will discover how God takes what seems broken and turns it into something beautiful and useful for His purposes. Each night is packed with upbeat music, interactive Bible teaching, hands-on challenges, creative building projects, and team-based fun that brings the theme to life. Through powerful stories of redemption in Scripture, kids will learn that no life is beyond God’s restoring love—and that He has a purpose for them. Bring your friends and join us for a week full of noise, creativity, laughter, and life-changing truth.

Co-Mission Camp is a free, week-long opportunity for 5th-12th graders to be the hands and feet of Christ through service and mission work in our community. This camp allows youth to experience what it means to serve with purpose, grow in faith, and lead with love. Throughout the week, we will work hard, serve joyfully, and have tons of fun! Each day will begin with a devotion to set our focus and end with reflection time to process what we've learned and experienced.

Schedule for the Week:

• Monday: What does it mean to be a servant leader? We'll explore mission-minded leadership and prepare for the week ahead.
• Tuesday: Feed My Starving Children – We’ll travel together by bus to pack meals for children in need.
• Wednesday: Stations of Service Day – A full day of hands-on service supporting multiple local and international organizations.
• Thursday: St. Mary's Food Bank – We’ll work together to help fight hunger in our community.
• Friday: Celebration Day! We'll wrap up the week celebrating all we've accomplished together! We'll finalize our camp video, gather for worship, and conclude camp with pizza and a party!

Important Information:

• Who: Students entering 5th-12th grade
• Cost: FREE!
• Waivers: Additional forms will be emailed on July 1 or can be completed in person during Monday’s registration.

Join us for a transformative week of service, faith, and fun!

What a wonderful evening of fellowship, fun, food, and celebration at this year’s Tacos & Talent Night!

Because of your generosity, we are thrilled to share that together we raised $2,871 to support Co-Mission Camp 2026 and our local youth ministries.

Our church family is incredibly talented, and it was such a joy to see so many people step forward to share their gifts, creativity, humor, music, and heart. Thank you to every performer who courageously shared their talent and helped make the evening so memorable.

Thank you as well to everyone who attended, encouraged, volunteered, donated, and gave so generously. Your support helps make Co-Mission Camp possible—a week where students grow in their faith, serve in Christ’s love, and engage in God’s mission through hands-on service projects that bless our community and local ministry partners.

A special thank you to Deb and Tim Rilley for donating the beautiful baskets, to Myra Curtis and Roman’s Oasis for supplying the amazing dinner, and to Carla for faithfully serving as our Wednesday night Mid-Week@CLP chef. Thank you to Betty Martello for leading our Mid-Week ministry, to Fred Cochrane for making dish duty his personal ministry, to Judy Mercy for coordinating the talent, and to Chanca Morrell and Kelly for being such fantastic MCs throughout the evening.

We are deeply grateful for the spirit of joy, generosity, and community that filled the room. 

Gratefully,

Pastor Brenda and the Co-Mission team

Dear Members of The Church at Litchfield Park,

Thank you so much for sponsoring Onalo at Open Arms Home for Children!  I am deeply grateful for the profound difference you continue to make in his life!!  As you can see, you are bringing much joy and love to his life!  Onalo sends you his gratitude and love for your generous sponsorship!  He is doing very well these days!

Onalo is now 8 years old and will turn 9 on September 11.  He is in 3^rd grade at East London Montessori School this year.  Onalo continues to enjoy school, and he has a lot of friends in his class.  Onalo is one of nine Open Arms children who attends Montessori – the school goes through 9^th grade and then the children transfer to a traditional high school.

Recently, Onalo went to see the movie Zootopia 2.  He loved the movie and would like to watch it again someday.  Thank you for making such outings possible for Onalo!

Onalo continues to live in the white house at Open Arms.  He is one of 7 boys in that house – there is a lot of energy in that particular cottage!  To burn off his energy, Onalo often plays soccer against the older boys.  He is quick on his feet and doesn’t seem to be intimidated competing against older boys.  It is fun to see him compete against boys twice his size.

Onalo continues to pretend to be a superhero in his spare time and loves playing with trucks as well.  He is an active child who likes to stay on the move.  Despite his natural energy, Onalo’s third grade teacher reports that his behavior is excellent in the classroom.  Obviously, he knows how to channel and manage his energy levels.

Thank you for playing such a pivotal role in Onalo’s life.  He is a very vibrant and happy-go-lucky boy who benefits each day from your generous support.  We know you share our pride in his progress!
