Last weekend 230 students from our Ohio churches gathered for fellowship. Thank you to each committee member, each person who served as a table leader, every Brother who offered to teach, every couple who shared their home as hosts and, each one who donated food or money. The Youth Day weekend was a blessing to many. 

We look forward to live streaming the Brotherhood Conference at the Rittman Fellowship Hall on Saturday, Aug 8. The conference begins at 8:45 AM with singing starting 45 minutes prior. Lunch and snacks will be provided. This is a wonderful opportunity for fellowship, worship, and learning from God’s Word. Please consider coming for all or part of the day as we explore this year’s theme: Daniel: A life that made God known. The agenda is available online by clicking here. If you have questions, please see Sis. Denise Maibach, Bro. Bradley Stoller or Bro. Caleb Beery.

On Aug 9, we plan to have an ice cream social after the afternoon service to take a moment and thank Bro. Bob and Sis. Lorie for their willingness serving the Rittman congregation through faithfully ministering God's Word.  Bro. Bob and Sis. Lorie plan to be available after the service in the lobby.  We also plan to have an appreciation singing for Bro. Jerry and Sis. Martha on Sept 13.

We have a carry in meal planned at the Fellowship Hall for next Sunday, Aug 9, at 5:00 PM with a singing planned for 7:00 PM. The carry in meal will be all potluck. No meat provided. All are welcome. 

Our local Ohio churches are providing the food for Sister Heart, which will be held at Canaan Church on Aug 15–16. Click here to sign-up to donate homemade or purchased food. Thank you in advance for your generous support! Please see Sis. AnnMarie Widmer with questions. 

We plan to have testimonies and baptisms the weekend of Aug 22 and 23 for Josiah Ramsier, Ezra Hartzler, Jenna Gasser, James Moore, and Lydia Ramsier. Bro. Mark Masters plans to be with us.
