We'll have worship services this Sunday at Austin High School at 9:30am, 11:15am or 5pm. This week's scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:19,20.

Starting next week, we’re taking three Sundays to look at some key things the Bible says about our finances. Money can be an uncomfortable subject to bring up, especially in church. But as much as money is talked about in scripture and as much time and stress as finances can exert on our lives, it’s clear that money matters. Together we’ll consider Jesus’ radical liberation of our love of money and fear of being without.

If you're not currently in a small group, consider joining one for these weeks; groups will spend time in scripture together considering the issues of our hearts and our finances. Find a group.

This summer, we have groups and individuals from The Austin Stone all over the world, living and serving in other communities and sharing the Gospel, both in word and deed. To read updates on these trips and to learn about some of the places in the world where The Austin Stone is specifically partnering, check out our new Make Disciples Blog.

This August, a team will be traveling to the southeast corner of Sudan in order to get to know the Didinga people group and to hear about the vision of a local pastor and his wife to bring restoration and peace to their land. This indigenous couple have already planted a church and they desire to build a multi-tribal boarding school in order to bring the Gospel and build community in Sudan.

Our team of 13 are excited to meet the Didinga people, hear the vision for the boarding school, and seek the Lord’s will for long-term partnerships between the Church in America and Sudan. If you're interested in hearing more and helping send them out in prayer, we're having a time to do that at 9:30AM this Sunday at Austin High School. The team departs on August 1.
