CHURCH PICNIC

THIS SUNDAY we will be meeting at Sonny Koontz’s Farm (see below for directions) and join the rest of the church for a church-wide picnic!

Please join us for some food, fellowship, and fun at our Fall Church Picnic!

Make sure to bring a LAWN CHAIR and a DESSERT TO SHARE. There will be lots of fun for the whole family (hamburgers & hotdogs, bonfire, hayrides, yard games, inflatables, crafts, frisbee, football, volleyball, ping-pong and more!).

We hope to see you there!

Directions to the Koontz Farm are Below:

Follow GPS directions to “668 Embler Road”, Lexington, NC:  Sonny’s is ACROSS THE STREET (the street sign will read “Prospector’s Trail” but it is not on GPS), FOLLOW THE SIGNS and PARK IN THE OPEN FIELD immediately to the left, and ETHER WALK down the long driveway (all the way to the end) OR WAIT for the HAY WAGON to pick you up!

ALSO, SEE BELOW for a few VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS…

FOR THE SUMMER ONLY:
WEDNESDAYS
6:00 PM MEET at DAIRI-O in THOMASVILLE (1811 Liberty Dr, Thomasville, NC 27360)

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20
6 PM
WE RETURN TO THE CHURCH!

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!
