Good Saturday evening! Hope this finds everyone doing well. I wanted to take a few minutes to update you on some activities taking place in and around our church.

First off, I will have some pictures to post on here very soon of the Labor Day festivities. So be on the lookout for those!

A group traveled to Trinity Presbyterian Church in Orangeburg today for CEF/Good News Club training. I am sure they have been equipped with wonderful things to share with those participating in this activity. There will also be a workshop for CEF/Good News Club on Monday, Sept. 17th from 6:30-8pm.

There will be a church conference tomorrow morning (Sept. 9th) immediately following the morning worship hour. All members are encouraged to attend.

Men's breakfast will be on Sunday, Sept. 16th at 8am in the fellowship hall. All men are invited and encouraged to attend.

Women on Mission will meet Wednesday evening, Sept. 19th. If you know of someone who has been missing out the monthly meetings, invite her to attend with you.

Craft night continues every Tuesday evening from 6:30-8:30pm. All ladies are invited to attend.

Choir practice is being held each Wednesday night after Bible Study. Now's the time to join! The more the merrier!

Youth: "SNAC" is being held on Sunday, Sept. 16th. "See You at The Pole" is being held on Wednesday, Sept. 26th.

Children: You will be taking a trip to the zoo this month! This trip will take place on Saturday, Sept. 22nd. If you have a child or children who would like to attend, please see our Minister of Students for more information!

I hope the school year has gotten off to a good start for everyone. You can tell that fall is in the air. With football games and back to school, comes a slight change in the air in the early morning and early evening hours. Over the years, spring and fall have become my favorite times of year. The mark of change that occurs fills you with a sense of reflection. At least it does for me. As one gets older; feelings, thoughts, ideas change about things. The things that once were so important, don't hold the "power" they once did. We spend so much of our youth wanting to be adults. When we reach adulthood, we look back and wonder where the time went. Instead (myself included), we need to focus on the here and now. Tomorrow will take care of itself. Yesterday is the past. Today is the present. A gift that will not be given to us in the same package tomorrow.

I hope you have a wonderful Saturday evening. Take care and until next time, God bless!

Love in Christ,

Tina :-)
