A “SCAR” IS BORN!  SELF-ACCEPTANCE NIGHT!

THIS SUNDAY… There is an old saying that claims that “Scars are just tattoos with better stories!”  This week we will be taking a look at those stories that come with some of our scars AND remind ourselves that those SCARS (the ones that we see and the ones that we can’t see) can be a beautiful and even necessary part of our faith journey if we allow God to help us heal.  Being able to accept ourselves (scars and all) the way God accepts us is a key way to turn a painful event in our lives into a source of strength and so us just how tough we really are!

We will eat a little supper, play a few games, then talk a little about this stuff!!!  See you there!

Supper will be served at 4 PM

We will be done by 6 PM!

BRING A FRIEND!

SMALL GROUP for HIGH SCHOOL & MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS!

WEDNESDAYS
6:30 PM
MEET IN THE YOUTH ROOM
(Upstairs in the Christian Enrichment Center)

These small groups are designed to be different than our Sunday Night Programs.  Instead of events, service, activities or discussing issues, “Small Group” meets simply to share about how your week is going and to have a few people pray for you and your life.  You will in turn get to pray for others and hear about their week as well.

WHAT DO WE DO?
When you meet you are asked to share 3 questions:
What was the HIGH POINT of your week?
What was the LOW POINT of your week?
Where did you SEE GOD during the week?

HOW DO I JOIN A SMALL GROUP?
Its pretty simple, but it is very meaningful to those who attend and you have an open invitation to just SHOW UP and we will guide you to find the perfect fit for you in a small groupl. Contact Rodney (336) 906-3036 if you have any questions!  Hope to see you there!
