Memorial Day Weekend

Good Friday evening to each of you. I trust each of you had a good week. Mine was a bit hectic. I am so bogged down, I don't know if I will ever get it all caught up. Course, that's why they call it work, right??!! I try to remember that God doesn't give us any more than we can handle, but sometimes it truly is hard. What should have taken me about an hour to do today, ended up taking about 3-4 (computer problem). Oh well, I am glad to say that with the assistance of a very helpful support person on the other end of the phone, she and I were able to get it corrected! Thank goodness!!

Memorial Day is fast approaching. Soon May will be over. Time just seems to fly by so fast. I encourage each of us to remember those brave men and women who defended our freedom years ago as well as those defending our freedom today. Without them we would not be able to do the things we do (worship freely, come and go as we so desire, etc.). Although it seems as there are many driving forces (Satan's army) trying to discourage us from honoring our Lord and Savior. God is the basis on which this country was founded and it is in God we should most definitely trust. Without Him, NOTHING is possible!!

Here are some activities that will be coming up in the next few weeks. Boy aren't we busy??!! :-)

God's Kids will be presenting "I am a Promise" this Sunday night (May 28th). The children have been working hard on this presentation and I know we will be blessed by their performance (as always). Many thanks to their faithful leader for working with them so hard and helping them to grow in God's love. Come out and join us and bring a friend or two. The service starts at 6pm.

Don't forget about Discipleship training on Sunday evenings at 5pm. We have classes available for everyone and would love to have you join us. We are never too old to learn something new and we always need to be growing in our stewardship.

The children will have a Summer Kick-off Party. This event will take place next Saturday, June 4th. Meet at the church at 1pm (you will return at 4pm).

Vacation Bible School is about to begin. There are classes for everyone. The first day is Sunday, June 4th and ends Thursday, June 8th. Classes begin at 6pm and end at 8:30pm. Come out and bring a friend. It will surely be a blessing!!

"Secret Power", a seminar for teen girls will begin Monday, June 12. The cost is $35.00. This price includes a trip to Fatz cafe Tuesday night. The last session will be held on Wednesday, June 14th. For those that signed up, I am sure you will have lots fun!

The youth will be leaving for Atlanta Fest on Thursday, June 15 and will return Saturday, June 17th.

Children's day camp will start Monday, June 26 and ends Thursday, June 29th.

Children's camp at White Oak is slated for June 30th-July 2nd.

Children and youth: you don't want to miss out on any of the activities scheduled for you! For more information or to sign up for these events, please see our Youth and Children's leader. She will be glad to assist you!!

I hope everyone has a safe and blessed Memorial Day weekend. Take care and God bless!

Love in Christ,

Tina :-)
