Church School Kick Off
The Christian Education Commission and Fellowship Committee Invites you to join us Sunday morning, September 12, to celebrate our “Back to Fall” schedule for Church School. A delicious continental breakfast will be served at 9:15 AM, Church School teachers will be introduced, and children (Pre-K through High School) will be invited to go with their teachers to their classrooms. Then it will be time for the remaining adults to hear all about the exciting new adult learning opportunities that are being planned for them in the fall. It will be an exciting and informative time to enjoy the fellowship of our church family. Mark your calendars!

Back to Fall Luncheon You are cordially invited to attend the Back to Fall Luncheon. This is our time to reconnect and be in fellowship over a meal of Pulled Pork, Vegetarian Beans, Coleslaw, Corn-on-the-Cob, Melon Slices, Dessert and all the trimmings. Proceeds from this meal will benefit Binky Patrol Comforting Covers, a non-profit that gives blankets to children in need. Our Junior High Youth started making blankets in the spring to also donate. Our hope is to have a Binky Patrol representative present to accept our donation and tell us more about their cause. |

| 10 Minutes for Hope Every first Tuesday - next meeting, September 7
Imagine standing in a circle side by side with someone you love, someone you find very difficult, the worst person in the world and the person you most admire. In this circle we wouldn’t need to agree with each other, we wouldn’t need to like each other. We wouldn’t even have to approve of each other. All we need to do is agree to stand still for 10 minutes in respect for humanity. 1. Remember what you like about the people you know. 2. Think about what you’d like to discover from the ones that are difficult for you. 3. Consider how to bring out the best in both. It may not be enough to create a world of peace but it could create the hope we need to cooperate globally and respectfully. |
