Pastors’ Update 05-17-2024

Hi Everyone and Happy Sabbath,

  

Feast of Tabernacles registration for all sites in now underway. Please register, if you have not already done so. Registering early is very helpful in planning each of the Feast sites. Our assigned site (Redmond, OR) opened on Sunday, April 28th, and for those who wish to transfer to another site, transfer registration began on Sunday, May 12th. If you have any questions, you may contact our Festival Advisors – Bob Besore` (Stockton), John Cornelison (Redding), and Mark Fike (Reno).  Members can register at the COGWA member portal (portal.cogwa.org).

 

Camp registration is now open through the COGWA Portal. If you plan to volunteer to help at one of our camps, or you plan for your children to attend camp, please register at the link in the Camp announcement below. There seems to be some confusion about the Sequoia camps for this year. The preteen and the teen camp will run simultaneously, starting on the same date (July 14th). However, the camps will be operated separately. Everything for the two camps will be run separately, but the same facility will be used.

  

Our annual NorCal all-COG church picnic at the Newton-Besore Ranch beginning at 11 am on Sunday, May 26th. Please pick up a flyer and map on the announcement table. We are also planning an all-COG picnic at the Rossmoor Sportsmens Picnic Pavilion on Sunday, June 23rd. Please reserve these special social outings on your calendar.

  

We will have Sabbath services tomorrow for the Stockton, Reno and Redding congregations at 2:30 pm. For those who cannot meet in person with us, the webcast will originate from Redding this week (2:30 pm). Linda and I plan to be in Red Bluff this Sabbath.


New Media Available!

Great news!  Thanks to the untiring effort of Mr. John Cornelison of the Redding congregation, new messages are now available for viewing under the "Media" tab.  Stay tuned for additional content!
