We wish to invite everyone to join us as we celebrate Fall with an evening of Christian fellowship, music and food.

Entrance Fee is a can of vegetables to add to the stew pot, but remember you will be eating out of the can so make it a large one. (If possible bring your cans in any time prior to the supper so they can be added earlier and simmering in the pot as folks arrive)

Bring along an extra can for a canned food donation to a local food pantry for families struggling in our area.

CONTEST:  This year we are asking everyone to dress up as a hobo... there will be a contest for the BEST DRESSED HOBO.

Lee County Public School students return to school on August 18, 2008.  Please be aware of the students waiting at bus stops or walking on the side of the road.  Also be aware of the big yellow school buses.  These bus drivers have to deal with students entrusted to them...don't make them deal with you too.

Time Change - Fall Back
October 29, 2006

The 2006 Nominating Committee needs your prayers and your support.

If you are asked to help in an area of our ministry, please pray about it and consider it with an open heart.

Three Good Reasons to Serve Your Church

  1. Your Christian life needs a service outlet. Nothing helps you to grow as a Christian like putting your faith into practice on a church committee.

  2. You have a testimony to share with others. The reason why you are asked to serve is that your fellow Christians have confidence in you and your ability. Your Christian testimony will be a good influence in the lives of those whom you lead and serve.

  3. Your church needs you. There is no way for a church to get its work done unless members volunteer their time. When you accept a place of responsibility, you help your church move forward in the name of Christ.


RECEIVED $893.00

The Maguire State Mission Offering makes it possible to carry out God's call of rescuing the downtrodden and spiritually lost, reconciling a needy world with the hope found in Jesus Christ and renewing all believers to fulfill the Great Commission.

  • Supporting pastors in partnership states and countries

  • Spreading the gospel through evangelistic ministry

  • Developing believers through youth and family camps

  • Helping churches in Florida changing communities

  • Ministering to migrant farm laborers

  • Helping rebuild lives after disasters

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL - ARTIC EDGE
Where Adventure Meets Courage

Trek north... to the Arctic Edge, where daily excursions from Big Bear Lodge will have you hiking across the tundra, exploring the seascape by kayak, and skimming the backcountry in a float plane. As you test your limits in the challenges of the vast Arctic wilderness, you will learn that God is always with you and you will find the courage required to follow Jesus in the everyday challenges of your life.

Haven’t I commanded you: Be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. (Joshua 1:9 Holman CSB™)

Be strong! Be courageous! Follow Jesus!

FEB
 2nd
 2006

Groundhog Day (a spin-off from a former Christian holiday Candlemas).  Candlemas, Feb. 2, was a Christian festival commemorating the purification of Mary and the presentation of Jesus in the temple.

The name Candlemas was derived from the procession of candles, inspired by the words of Simeon “a light to lighten the Gentiles” (Luke 2.32).   Early Christians believed that if the sun came out on Candlemas Day, then there would be six more weeks of winter.
