The GRITS Retreat is scheduled August 25th and 26th. It will be at Cuscowilla at Lake Oconee. Cost is $20 per person and payment was due (cash only) by July 31, 2017. You can give the payment to Linda Cowan or Pam Kirkland. There will be swimming and other activities.  We will send out a email soon for teams to be responsible for food, drinks, snacks, paper products, and condiments once we have a head count .  There is a sign up sheet at the Welcome desk.
Israel Trip
Pastor Stan has planned  a trip to the Holy Land.  Israel Biblical Mission Tours will arrange an Israel experience, led by Pastor Stan.  The tour is entitled
  "A 9 Day Walk in the Footsteps of Jesus" .  Dates for the trip are November 10 - November 18, 2017.  There is more information regarding this trip at the Welcome desk if you are interested or talk with Pastor Stan.
Missions Opportunity
Are you interested in being part of the Africa 2018 Mission Team?  Were you inspired by the pictures and stories of God's work in Zambia?  We are currently enlisting our next team for July 1-12, 2018.  There is a sign up sheet on the Information Counter.  Please place your name on the sheet and the first 11 spots will be designated as the 2018 team.  There is only 1 spot remaining.  Names listed under those names will be "on standby" in the event someone has to back out.  The cost of the trip will be approximately $3000 (exact cost cannot be determined until airline fares are released) so if you would like to make payments, the monthly payment from now until next July will be $250 per person..  A $250.00 deposit is requested by August 13, 2017 to reserve your spot.  If you need more info, please contact Pastor Stan or Nancy.
