Love Bellevue is Coming in July!

‘Love Bellevue’ is coming in July
www.lovebellevue.com

To tell the city of Bellevue “we love you” in the native tongue of every person in the city, you’d need to learn at least 80 different languages. Or you could do what one new Bellevue church is doing – demonstrating its love with action.

Essential Church is making July “Love Bellevue” month– which will include free events for the community and service projects throughout the month.

“We want to show the people of Bellevue that we care about them,” said Warren Mainard, Essential Church’s lead pastor. “We have a lot planned throughout the month – from block parties to soccer camps to concerts to movie nights and more. We know that when a city experiences love in the context of community, positive things are bound to happen.”
