The Violet Connection 30

On June 14, our church family overwhelmingly affirmed Pastor Eric Flynn as the next Senior Pastor of Violet Baptist Church. This important milestone marks both a celebration of God's faithfulness through Pastor Rick Williams' 30 years of ministry and an anticipation of what God has planned for the future of our church.		1

A Month of Mission and Ministry		7
June was a wonderful month at Violet! We were blessed to host a mission team from Upstate Church in South Carolina. For one week, 187 adults and youth called Violet home as they ate, slept, showered, worshiped, and prepared to serve our community.		7
We are especially grateful for our Disaster Relief volunteers and teams who worked behind the scenes to provide and maintain hot showers and facilities throughout the week.		7
Celebrating Father’s Day		7
On Father’s Day, we had the opportunity to celebrate the fathers and father figures who make such a difference in our lives. Thank you to everyone who joined us for worship and fellowship.		7
A special thank you goes to Fresh Donuts, our locally owned Pickerington business located on Route 256, for providing the delicious, sweet treats enjoyed by our church family.		7

Mega Sports & Art Camp is just around the corner, and we need YOU!		7
There are many ways to serve, whether you enjoy coaching, leading a huddle group of kids, preparing meals for the volunteers or snack for the kids throughout the week. Every volunteer plays an important role in helping kids experience God’s love in a fun and meaningful way.		7
Please prayerfully consider spending the week with us. As a bonus, we’ll provide dinner for all volunteers each evening. If you’re interested in serving Sign up and plan to join us in the VioletCafé for a volunteer training on Sunday, July 19th, from 12:30 - 1:30 PM. During this training, we will cover the daily schedule, logistical information, and more details on this year's theme - Mission Cup! We can’t wait to see what God will do through Mega Sports & Art Camp this year!		7
