Impact Clinton: 30 in 30

September 2022 we will seek to impact our community with 30 mission projects in 30 days. One simple project for each day of the month touch the life of our community. We will show appreciation to teachers, police, firefighters, and dispatchers. We will demonstrate care for seniors and special friends. We will serve students and the underserved.

You can make an impact. Choose a day in September, there are 30 options. Or choose a simple project, Sandy has a list of 30 options developed by the Church Council. If you have something in mind you want to do, Sandy will be glad to add your project to the list and mark your day on the calendar. Collect some friends to help you plan and carry out your impact project. Impact Clinton: 30 in 30

Impact Helena, Montana – We have opportunity to help Capstone Church impact Helena Montana by assisting with their fall ministry kick-off. Our team needs to be three or four women to lead a Women’s event and three or four men to lead a Men’s event. These are simultaneous events Friday September 16. Our whole team will be involved in helping Capstone open their new larger space to the community on September 17-18. The Impact Helena, Montana mission trip is tentatively scheduled for September 14-20.

“Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good” (1 Cor 12:7). Using your spiritual gifts is good for everyone and glorifies God. We are blessed to be a blessing. Glad I am on the journey with you.

Coming in August, we will be having Wednesday night youth in the park! We will be joining with other youth groups in Clinton to worship God together. We will be at Artesian park August 10 and 17 from 6pm to 7:30pm to play games, worship through song and opening God’s word together. 

We’re very excited to start up small groups again this fall! We will be having our Small Group Kickoff August 28th, 5:00-7:00 pm. We will be spending this time connecting to the leaders and students in our small groups. We will also be competing as small groups for bragging rights and maybe a prize. Dinner is provided. Invite your friends and bring your running shoes!

Adults, if you have any interest in helping with a small group, please contact Joey Conway for details. Our small groups are weekly/biweekly Bible study groups divided by gender and age. These groups are centered around Bible study, but our purpose is to build relationships with Christians their own age, as well as giving them a mentor relationship with their small group leader. If that interests you in any way, or you would like to help us in other ways, please contact me! 660-890-4343.

If you have a student in youth, information about weekly events, signups and other important information are communicated through the Remind app. If you are not in our Remind group, download the app using the class code 6fg83e or contact Joey Conway.
