Graduation 2008

We have 3 high school graduates this year: Kerri Bennett, Brittney Donehoo and Brittiny Garmon. Kerri and Brittiny are graduating from Kaufman and Brittney is graduating from Scurry-Rosser. We are so very proud of these three young women. We hosted a small graduation celebration on May 18th.

Musicals

We are preparing a revival of "Sweet Freedom's Song" as a celebration of July 4th. Mrs. Bobby and the choirs are rehearsing to make this a special night. Please plan on joining us.

Building and Renovation

After many years of hard work and self-sacrifice by our members, we've finished our fellowship hall. What a wonderful blessing to have such a terrific space.

Our current rate of growth (Praise God!) predicts standing room only in a few short years. We're now in the planning stages for increasing the auditorium seating, and are looking into all options. Look for more information and forms in the church foyer.

Men's Prayer Breakfast

At 7:00 a.m. on the second Saturday of each month, the men gather at the church for a hearty breakfast and a time of prayer and fellowship. Sometimes, the breakfast is "worked off" by doing a few minor jobs around the church. It is worth waking up early for!

Teen Night

We have been having a Teen Night on the last Saturday of the month, with great success. We've had other churches join us, and we've travelled to other churches for a concert. Bring friends, too. The last person to bring the most friends got a prize!

Due to church camp and school schedules, we won't be having a Teen Night during July or August. We'll start back on Sepember 27th. We hope to see you then!

Ladies Meetings

Wow, are we busy! There is a lot going on.

We have a Ladies Bible Study, led by Lisa Bailey. We meet in the Fellowship hall each Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. We're taking a short break between studies and will resume on July 15th. This next study is titled "Forgiveness". Bring a friend (or two), and we look forward to seeing you.

There is also an organized group of ladies that are taking care of the church foyer and auditorium decorations as well as sending "don't be homesick" boxes to our college students. If you aren't already part of this, please contact Lori Robertson or Glenda Smith. There is a sign-up list in the foyer of the church, too. This is a team effort, so don't be afraid! You'll have a partner (or two!) to help!

We have also created holiday "goodie" boxes for our soldiers overseas. We have even heard back from some of them!
If you have a soldier in your life that would appreciate a package from home, please get us their addresses, and we'll add them to our list for the next time.
Don't have a soldier? Want to help one? Go to AnySoldier.com and read some of the stories. You don't have to send goodies: moral support is needed as much as chapstick. Send a letter. Tell the soldier that gets your letter that even though you don't know their name, God does, and you are praying for them. These folks are the epitome of courage and bravery. Without them, we'd all sleep less secure at night. Make every day "Veteran's Day" and thank everyone who has ever worn a uniform.
