Omnipresent We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God. The world is crowded with him. He walks everywhere incognito. And the incogni-to is not always hard to penetrate. The real labor is to remember, to attend … in fact to come awake. Still more, to remain awake.
—C.S. Lewis

Anchor Watch at Lighthouse
Friday, July 13th 5:00 – 8:00pm
Anchor Watch is the official name we have given to our new Respite Care for families who have a loved one with special needs. On Friday evening, July 13, Lighthouse Church will become a beacon of hope for these families in our church and community. The parents and/or caregivers of loved ones with special needs (Buddies) are invited to bring both their loved one and his/her siblings to our church from 5:00 – 8:00pm. We will team up a volunteer with each Buddy, feed all of them pizza for dinner (yes, siblings too), have a brief devotion/prayer, and then en-courage them to explore several types of rooms in the building (including a Quiet Room for people who are sensitive to sight and sound). There is no cost for this evening, and nursery / childcare will be provided for children up to three years old. Since Anchor Watch is still very new and we are learning as we go, we will be limited to the first 20 Buddies who sign up. You may sign up your Buddy (and siblings) at the Welcome Table on Sunday morn-ing, call the church or email: [email protected].
