Have you always wanted to meet an archbishop? Next Sunday, Restoration will have the privilege of welcoming the archbishop of the Anglican Church of the Province of Southeast Asia, Bolly Lapok, to worship with us. The Cambodia small group invites you to join them for a dinner with Archbishop Bolly on Sat., Jun. 21 from 6–9:30 pm. For more info and to RSVP, email dinner.with.an.archbishop@gmail.com.
Fourth Tuesdays at AFAC: The fourth Tuesday of each month, from 6:30-9 pm, a team from Restoration helps distribute food to our neighbors in need at the Arlington Food Assistance Center.

What happens to kids’ small groups during the summer? The last day of regular kids’ small groups is June 29. Beginning July 6, we will have nursery and preschool kids’ small groups only. Older kids will worship with their families throughout the service, and we’ll have kids’ worship bags full of cool stuff to help kids engage with the service—or just zone out while they color.
Apply for an Outreach grant: The Outreach Steering Team provides personal and project funding for Restoration folks involved in outreach activities that align with Restoration’s outreach and strategic goals. Grant applications are due July 5. For more information, contact Liz: Go to restorationarlington.org/contact and choose “Outreach.”
