For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” Romans 8:14–15

SERVE AT KIDLIFE 2022
We are so excited to offer KidLife, Dawson’s version of VBS, on campus June 6–9. Our theme for this year is “SPLASH!” and we will need hundreds of volunteers to guide preschoolers and children on a journey to discover more about God and grow to become more like His Son, Jesus. More than ever before, we need additional volunteers so we can continue to open additional classes. Please visit dawsonchurch.org/KidLife and sign up to serve with us.

CONSTRUCTION MISSION TRIP TO MAINE
July 9–16, 2022
Dawson has supported Summit Community Church in Gorham Maine in many ways, including the Chapel Choir going in 2017 to help them with “We Love Gorham Day.” Summit Church is growing and will be constructing a new building. Dawson will send a team to help Summit volunteers build a large storage building on their new property. The slab will be poured and ready, and we hope to complete the project in one week. All levels of construction knowledge and experience are needed.
We will worship with Summit Community Church on Sunday and work Monday through Friday. The cost of the trip will be $800 per person. You will build relationships with the great members of Summit Church, and you will be blessed by their excitement for what God is doing to reach people in Maine.
