YOUTH RETREAT
Eight of our teens traveled to St. Simons Island, GA, for a youth retreat last month with Dr. Mulkey and Cheryl Secunda as chaperones. Three girls made a profession of faith while at the retreat and one boy rededicated his life.
We thank God for their decisions. There’s talk of another retreat in 2010.
YOUTH PROGRESSIVE DINNER
Friday, August 14
See Cheryl Secunda for details.
KIDS CONNECTION
Children of the church and community will not take a break during the month of August as previously discussed.
The fun and learning continue on Saturday mornings at 10:00 AM with Discovery Canyon. Due to some problems with technology we were unable to post the children’s pictures on the bulletin board last month. Hopefully we will have them up soon so you may pick a child to hold in your prayers.
