### AAPI Heritage/Missions Sunday & Potluck June 7

On Sunday, June 7th, we have the privilege of hosting Dr. Lloyd Kim, Director of Mission to the World. He will be teaching our All-Church Sunday School in the sanctuary from 9:00-10:00 AM and preaching during our worship service. Regularly scheduled children’s Sunday School will still be available during the 9:00 AM hour for families with young ones. Following the service, everyone is invited to stay for a potluck meal and Q&A time with Dr. Kim in the Fellowship Hall.

*Assigned Food Contributions by Last Name*

- A–F: Vegetables
- G–M: Desserts
- N–T: Beverages
- U–Z: Salads & Breads

*Food Drop-Off Instructions*
Families should bring their assigned dishes to kitchen/Fellowship Hall during or before Sunday School (by 9:15 AM). Recommended families bring food in disposable containers whenever possible so food can go directly into warmers during the worship service.

### Heidelberg Catechism #112

Q. What is the aim of the ninth commandment?

A. That I never give false testimony against anyone,
twist no one’s words, not gossip or slander,
nor join in condemning anyone rashly or without a hearing.1

Rather, in court and everywhere else,
I should avoid lying and deceit of every kind;

these are the very devices the devil uses,
and they would call down on me God’s intense wrath.2

I should love the truth, speak it candidly, and openly acknowledge it.3

And I should do what I can to guard and advance my

neighbor’s good name.4
