Next Few Weeks Schedule

Sunday July, 27th: The Beavers
This will be the same way we have done the last few Wednesdays. With large group followed by 30 minutes of small group. Casey will be there to be the go to guy for any major issues.

Wednesday July, 30th: Bob James
Thad will be leading worship and Nick Terry will be the go to guy with any major issues or problems.

Sunday August 3rd: Emily Bowers
Casey, Scot, and I both won't be there; so Luke Beaver is the go to guy for any major issues that come up. Romania Team returns later that night.

For these 3 meeting times if you can be there it would be very helpful. I know everything will go fine, and I will be updating the blog on how the trip is going to anyone that is interested.

Looking Around

I look around the church and am completely humbled by what our students are doing over the next few weeks. In my office there is a stack of luggage that is continuing to pile up in my office as 9 of our seniors prepare to spend a week in Romania hosting a camp for children. Against a wall in the 10th grade sunday school room there are stacks of food, games, and crafts ready for the children at Piedmont Park (a low income housing complex that we visited at camp this year). All these item were paid for by our 10th grade students, who will be going Thursday to spend a day loving children at Piedmont Park. On the table in the work room there is a sheet ready for students to sign-up to serve during SWTA. As I talk with Gaylin she tells me story after story about the growth and depth of the rising 7th grade class from their experience at children's camp this year.

Amazing youth workers and amazing students are a very powerful combination.
