Camp Singing…
Sunday evening, September 1st, we will be going to Grandview for their annual camp reunion and singing. We will be meeting here at the building at 3:10 pm and leaving shortly after. I plan to be back here to the building in time for pick-up by 6:45 pm. If you plan to go, please bring $1 to help with our part of the meal that we are responsible for. Look forward to seeing everyone here!!

TPM…
Sunday night, September 8th, we will be having our teen prayer meeting. We will meet in the High School classroom following services. Supper will follow so you will need money for that. Pick-up time will be 7:45 pm.

Schedules Wanted…
If you are involved in any school or non-school related activity, I would enjoy coming out and watching! Please get me a schedule as soon as possible so I can get my calendar in order. Thank You!!

Bible Hour Starts Sunday!!!
Next Sunday morning 9/1 we begin Bible Hour AND a new check in system for the children. Parents will check in their children, infants through 3rd grade at the check in counter. Parents will be given a card at drop off, and must present that card when they return to pick up their child. IF, your child wants to attend Bible Hour they will remain in their Bible Class and parents will pick them up after worship service. The reason for the changes are to ensure safety, help the transition to flow smoothly from Bible class to Bible Hour and most importantly, we will incorporate the Lord's Supper for the helpers during Bible Hour so the children can witness that, before they missed out on that time. We are asking for patience as we get this new procedure rolling smoothly. Parents are welcome to pick up their child at any time but we do ask if your child is going to attend Bible Hour to please leave them in class, or check them in BEFORE Bible Hour begins. Please pray for Bible Hour to be a success and that we glorify Him! Thank you.
