SNOW TUBING TRIP THIS SATURDAY!!! (No Youth Group on Sunday)

THIS SATURDAY… we will travel to SEVEN DEVILS, NC (right outside BOONE, NC) to go SNOW TUBING at HAWKSNEST!    Just be warned, the weather forecast is NOT what I was hoping for, (possible rain in the afternoon – but our tubing session is 10 AM – 12 NOON so we hope to miss any precipitation with an early tubing time!), AND I am not convinced that conditions will get any better this season, so we are going to make the best of it!

BTW…
I still have a few OPEN SPACES, so if you want to bring a friend LAST MINUTE…SIGN UP HERE!

SATURDAY TENTATIVE SCHEDULE
7:00 AM MEET at the CHURCH (EAT BREAKFAST before you arrive — we will not stop for breakfast.  I will have SNACK FOODS & DRINKS in the vans if needed!)
9:30 AM  ARRIVE at HAWKSNEST

12:00 PM TUBING ENDS, CHANGE CLOTHES & GET READY TO GO TO BOONE FOR LUNCH

ALSO… the ASP MEETING ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED for LAST SUNDAY, HAS BEEN RE-SCHEDULED for NEXT SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 18 at 3 PM

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!

YOUTH CHOIR

WEDNESDAYS
7:00 PM (until 7:30 PM)
CHOIR ROOM (Main Building)

We are starting an ALL NEW YOUTH CHOIR!!! NO EXPERIENCE required!  Just a desire to make a joyful noise!

We will begin by practicing with the Adult Choir.  We will be preparing a few pieces that we will sing during worship this Fall!!!

FOR MORE INFO contact NORRIS NORWOOD (336) 575-7726 (our Director of Music)

BRING A FRIEND!!!

SUNDAY SCHOOL!!!

SUNDAYS!!! 10 AM YOUTH ROOM! (Upstairs in the Christian Enrichment Center) Join us for a discussion-based Sunday School Lesson!  No Bible knowledge necessary – Let’s learn together!  Bring a friend!

SMALL GROUP for HIGH SCHOOL & MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS!

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!
