Fall is Upon us!

Time, where does it go? It seems that the summer just began and here is drawing to a close. School has been back in full swing for everyone for several weeks. I hope the year started off on a good note! Remember to keep God in your relationships at school as well as in your day-to-day studies. Homework is no fun, but it helps build knowledge and character. Make the most of the time you have now. Study hard a make good grades. You won't be sorry that you did!

I wanted to update you on some things taking place around our church over the next few weeks. And they look busy!!

Our Minister of Students is looking for volunteers for this year's Good News Club. If you feel God urging you to take part in this ministry, please follow His call. He will never lead us down a path we will be sorry we took. And children need good role models these days.

The monthly birthday celebration will take place Wed., Sept. 10th following the evening supper. Come and join in a fun time of food, celebration, fellowship and worship. Supper is served at 6pm in the fellowship hall.
