Manna's July Newsletter (Friday Worship Cancelled!)

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Just a heads up: things might look a little different - we're trying a new hosting platform for this email.

This month in the newsletter: A Worship Update regarding July 3rd, a call for art & artists, and an opportunity for your feedback!

July 3rd Dinner Church

While we are eager to gather again for dinner church, we will have to wait a little bit longer. Our worship, which had been scheduled for tomorrow, Friday July 3rd, is unfortunately canceled due to the dangerously high temperatures.

We are looking at options for gathering in August - check back soon for more information, or reach out to Pastor Byrnese directly via email at pastor@mannabethlehem.com.

Artist Call for All Ages!

Have you ever dreamed about having your art on a shirt? We are looking for submissions from artists of all ages to help make promotional materials for Manna including shirts, mugs, hats, stickers, or anything else! All ages are welcome, and any medium that can be represented in 2 dimensions (sorry, probably can't make sculptures work this time). Submissions can be made via email to hello@mannabethlehem.com and are due by August 1, 2026

Themes You might like to explore could include:

-God will Fill the Hungry with Good things

-There’s More Than One Way to Be Hungry

-Bread

-Dinner Church

Or Something else!

Feel free to use the Manna Logo in your design, if desired.

We want to hear from you:

We're looking ahead to the fall and wondering - what connection opportunities are you looking for? Do you want to see Craftivism continue every week, or are you ready to move to once-per-month? If you've got ideas, or thoughts about what you'd like to see from Manna, let us know at the link below:
