Our annual Thanksgiving Breakfast is quickly approaching!  Every year we serve a breakfast on Thanksgiving morning as an appreciation to the Memorial congregation for all of the support and care that they provide for us throughout the year!

Invite your friends and family, but we especially need people to cook biscuits, grits and prepare coffee and juice!  We also need people to serve the meal AND I will also be looking for some people to help with a short devotion at the end of the meal!

IF you are willing to help with this year’s Thanksgiving Breakfast, CONTACT Rodney (336) 906-3036 as soon as possible and let him know what you are willing to help with!  THANKS!!!

CHRISMON SERVICE – HELP!

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 3
4:00 PM PRACTICE

6:00 PM HOT DOG SUPPER

I am looking for a bunch of people to do a short reading for our “Chrismon Service”.  Every year at the beginning of the Christmas season we have a special worship service to explain what the different ornaments (Chrismons) on the tree that we have in the sanctuary mean!  The Youth and Children typically do these readings!  So, if you are willing to do a reading for this year’s Chrismon Service (it will be short and easy) I really could use your help!!! Contact Rodney (336) 906-3036 as soon as possible!

WANT TO BE IN THE THOMASVILLE PARADE?

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9
11 AM
JULIAN AVE.

We need people to walk along with our Parade float and hand out candy for this year’s Thomasville Parade!  If you are interested, contact Rodney (336) 906-3036!

ACOLYTES!!!  HELP!

In case you have never heard the word “ACOLYTE”, an ACOLYTE is the person at the beginning of the worship service that brings in the flame to light the altar candles.  We need some volunteers to light the candles at the 11 AM service!   (the 8:50 AM service does not use Acolytes)  It only takes about 30 minutes to learn how to “ACOLYTE”.  Typically, you sign up for a month (4 Sundays) and then you will be the Acolyte for that month at the 11 AM worship service.  You would need to light the candles at the beginning of the service and put them out at the end.  If this sounds like something you might be interested in, contact Rodney (336) 906-3036 OR Brandy Lambeth (336) 688-6881 for more information!

SMALL GROUP for HIGH SCHOOL & MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS!

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!
