Teen Ministry
On Monday, July 22 at 6:45pm, we will have a meeting for parents to discuss plans to meet the spiritual needs of the teens who call Deep Water home and give them opportunities to include their friends. This meeting is open to anyone who has teens or is interested in the program. The meeting will NOT be at Deep Water’s building, so please ask me for directions.
For more information, talk to me on Sunday, contact us or comment below and we’ll be sure to get directions to you.
Baptism
The baptism is scheduled at the beach for this Sunday, July 21. In order to avoid a crowded beach, we plan on meeting at the beach at 6:00pm. Everyone is invited to come and celebrate with us, whether getting baptized or not. We’ll be announcing more details on Sunday and explaining exactly where we will meet.
If you’re interested in being baptized, see me, contact me, sign up on Sunday or comment below so we can be sure you get the most up to date information and let you know about any last minute changes, including plans if it rains.
If you’re wondering what baptism is, whether you should be baptized, whether you should be baptized again, etc., the “mythstery” (Our current sermon series is titled Mythsteries: investigating myths about God and the Bible.) at our worship gathering a few weeks ago was about baptism. So check out the podcast!
Parent Cue for Sunday, July 21
Each week we supply a weekly Parent Cue and Kids God Time sheet.
- The Parent Cue is meant to be a resource for you to discuss and reinforce the lesson with your kids.
- The Kids God Time is intended to help kids learn to spend some quiet time with God on their own. (Of course, you’re welcome to help them and model it for them as they learn!)
We’re posting the upcoming week’s material for the lesson that will be taught this Sunday. Additionally, we will provide a hardcopy of these on Sunday for those who may not prefer the digital versions.

Our goal as a church is provide you with resources to help your children grow spiritually. We’re doing our best to make things simple and easy. Please feel free to give us feedback on this!
Thursday Night Group Schedule
Community groups are formally organized, but meeting places and times are flexible depending on the schedules of people coming. It’s always a good idea to connect with the group leader before attending a group for the first time–or the first time in a long time, especially in the summer!
Since the Thursday Night group meets at the Worship space, we’re posting the upcoming schedule so you don’t show up and find no one there!
Buffalo Stampede
If you’re not from the area, that title might be confusing. When did buffalo come to Delaware? Are we taking preparing for a very unlikely danger? If we have a herd of buffalo, why are we planning to make them stampede?
The Buffalo Stampede is an annual race in Wyoming, Delaware. (It’s right next to Camden, but not the same town–but that’s a long story!) If you’re the kind of person who runs from things other than danger, you may want to run the 5 or 10K (Enter here.). If you’re not a runner, or maybe just want to serve others, join us as we run a water station during the Buffalo Stampede in Wyoming on Saturday, July 20.
We’ll be pouring water and gatorade into cups and giving them to people running the race. The race begins at 8am and we would probably see our last runner by 9:30. We need 4-6 people for this to work well. If you’re interested, comment below or contact me!
