Crisis Control Ministry
Dear Friends!
Even though our temperatures are in the 90's, Crisis Control
Ministry is getting ready for the cold weather that is just around the corner. For the month of September, they are requesting GRITS AND OATMEAL be given by the local churches. These are
inexpensive items so add as many as you can to your shopping cart. I believe you will be "warmed" by your own generosity.
Becky Minnix,
Christian Action Ministry

Condolences
Our deepest condolences to the family of Monica Banks who's grandmother passed on this morning. We send the most sincere prayers & love to lift them up during this time of mourning and the seasons to come. May we encourage one another to hold on to our faith which gives us the hope that we will see our loved ones down the road again.

What a summer! Many of our youth spent the summer volunteering and working with the kids at Palooza. Their compassion, patience, and dedication to those children served as an excellent representation of our church community and what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
Their hard work has inspired our September theme: "Reflection."
As we reflect on our summer experiences, we will reflect on what it means to be a part of a church family, what it means to live as examples of Christ, and what it looks like to spend time in quiet contemplation with God each day.
Our theme verse for this month is Matt. 19:14 -
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
If you would like to know how you can get involved with the youth group, please email Kaitlin or call her at (828) 713-2570.
Peace,
Kaitlin

PINC
To those interested in renewing our PINC (Partners In Christ) meetings, please respond in an e-Mail.
In your answer, please relate the following answers:
-
Your level of interest
-
Evenings that you
Cannot
meet
-
Types of activities that interest you
Our goal is to meet together and get to know each other in a more personal way. In sharing various activities, I think we accomplish that in a very Christ-like way.
In the past in addition to opening devotionals (when appropriate) we have performed several service projects - Valentine and Easter Baskets for seniors, Preparation of eggs for our Easter egg hunt,and help with fund-raising projects of the church.
In addition we have prepared items for sale to raise funds and had sale of donated items.
We have also participated in fun activities such as movies, bowling, art and wine parties, and dinners out. We also had interesting speakers for our meetings as well as instructors for arts and crafts projects.
Your response to this message is important in deciding the future of PINC.
