We’re heading to Quartzite! We’ll be leaving the Church parking lot on January 10th at 8 am to go to the Annual Gem and Mineral show. There’s also a GIANT swap meet! If you want to ride in the Church van, please sign the sheet on the bulletin board. Plan to buy lunch. (you might even get the opportunity to eat a camel burger!)
Our Fellowship Ministry will be meeting on January 12, at 6 pm at Dennys. Join us to help plan for future events!
The Financial Ministry will be Meeting, January 19th, at 6pm. Anyone is welcome to attend, but only official “voting members” of the group can vote.
We’re having another P.I.G. night!!! (Pizza, Ice Cream & Games)
Where? In the Church Basement.
When? Saturday, January 24th.
What time? We’ll begin at 4 pm.
What should I bring? Cash to help pay for pizza.
Can I do more? Bring toppings or ice cream. (Talk to Robin about what is needed.)
How do I get there? You can take the stairs to the basement, or you can ride down on the golf cart.
A Congregational Meeting will be held on January 25th, immediately following our 10:30 am Worship service. Financial reports will be available in the foyer soon. We encourage everyone to attend, but you need to be a member in order to vote. If you aren’t sure whether you are a member or not, you probably aren’t. Ask John about how that works.
Your Christmas gifts were very much appreciated! It is our joy to work here at the Church, but your kindness makes it even better!
Happy New Year!
John, Robin, Billy & Barb!
A Message from the Parking Lot….
You probably didn’t expect to find a note from your parking lot in the Church newsletter, but you need to know that I am in dire need of your help!
You probably don’t think about me very much, and that’s ok… After all, I’m a parking lot. But lately, when you walk into the building from your car, you’ve probably noticed Cracks in my asphalt. Big cracks, wide cracks, long cracks, skinny cracks, short cracks…. There are simply LOTS of cracks. If you had cracks like this in your skin, you’d be visiting your doctor!
There is good news and bad news about all this. First, the bad news. Filling my cracks isn’t cheap! In fact, the estimate to make me as good as new is $21,420.00. The other bad news is that if you don’t get my “doctor” to help me out soon, it will cost even more…. But now, on to the Good News….
The first good news is that $14,000.00 has already been donated to help fix my cracks. That gift leaves $7,420.00 that is still needed to get me back in shape. The other good news is that this bid includes filling all my cracks, recoating my “face,” and painting all my stripes back on. I’ll be as good as new!
There are special envelopes in the foyer for your gifts. Thank you in advance!
Sincerely,
Your Parking Lot
