1) Don’t forget that we are heading to LACI tomorrow night. If you have signed up to attend this special Mother’s Day Worship Event, remember we are leaving the church at 5:30 p.m. Also, a few things that we can and cannot do:
a) We cannot wear shorts or tank tops;
b) You must have a picture ID in order to be allowed into the prison;
c) You cannot bring anything with you. This means purse, etc. You will be asked to leave your keys at the check in counter; and,
d) Please pay attention to what Warden Howerton says regarding movement once the ladies begin arriving in the gym.
We have some special events planned for the ladies and we cannot wait to love on these moms.
2) Sign Ups for Summer Semester of Fellowship Connections will begin on Sunday. We have revamped the lineup for this semester only to help Fellowship Church and the members and attendees grow. There will be a sign up table located in the back together with Facilitators available to answer any and all questions you may have. We are excited about the way this has unfolded and cannot wait to see lives changed this summer!
3) Next Sunday we have a busy day planned.
a) If you are facilitating a small group for Fellowship Connection this Summer, we will be hosting a training session beginning at 4 p.m. This will help you understand the 201 Class, answer any questions you may have, and we will also be doing a mock run through of a class. We will be providing child care; and, once again, if you would like to help with child care, please let me know.
b) As Craig has been mentioning, we have decided to rethink the way we handle Communion Services. We don’t want to just tack this onto an event; we want this to be the special time it is suppose to be. We will be hosting a special evening Communion Service beginning at 6:30 p.m.
4) If you have been attending Fellowship Church and would like to make the next step, we will be hosting another Discovering the Joy of Membership Class on May 31st at 5:30 p.m. here at the church. We will be providing a meal and child care for you if needed. You can sign up at the Information Table on Sunday or by emailing me back. Also if you would like to provide child care for this class, please let me know as well.
5) We are in the process of making CDs of the Elephant in the Church Series. If you would like to purchase a CD set, you can do so by signing up at the Information Table. The cost for the series is $15. Please make sure if paying by check that you mark in the Memo line for Elephant Series. If paying by cash, please place in an envelope and indicate for Elephant Series. These should be ready in the next couple of weeks.
6) We have downloaded the Town Hall for Hope DVD message from Dave Ramsey. If you would like a copy of this DVD, please go by the Guest Service Counter. There is no cost for this DVD.
We have some very exciting news to share with you! As Craig mentioned a couple of weeks ago, we have been in talks with The Journey Church in New York regarding a mission opportunity this summer. Those plans have been finalized. The mission trip will be from June 13-19th. The cost is $500 per person. This does not include meals or other expenses you will be occurring. If you are interested in attending, you can sign up at the Information Table. We are asking for a $50 commitment deposit by May 24th. Also, we need a minimum of 10 people in order to attend. This should include 5 men and 5 women. For more information, you can pick up a flyer on the Information Table.
Also, Nate is preparing some fun activities for the children and youth this summer. Just a heads up for the Youth:
a) June 22nd—You will be going to Helen to tube the river. The cost will be $15 plus food and tube rental. We will leave the church at 8:30 a.m. and get back around 5 p.m. Sign up sheets are on the Information Table. Deadline for sign ups is June 14th.
