The Bluffton Area Ministerial Association will conduct its annual outdoor community worship service at 9 a.m., Sunday, July 29, on the Bluffton Presbyterian Church lawn.
The theme will be "For the Beauty of the Earth" and we will continue the Vacation Bible School theme from the previous week," according to Rev. Carol Clements, St. John's pastor and ministerial association member. St. John's UCC will host this year's VBS.
"This year, there will be only one offering taken, and that will be for the community food pantry. Please hold your individual offerings to your own church until the following week," according to association.
The usual snack of grapes and muffins will be offered. Persons attending the service are invited to bring some to share. All extra grapes and muffins will be donated to Our Daily Bread Food Pantry.
Also, be sure to bring your lawn chair. The service has never been rained out-but should it be raining, the service will be held in the middle school cafetorium.
