I hope you’re getting pumped up about our new series, “Game On!” that we’re kicking off next Sunday, September 20th! Pull out all the stops, do whatever it takes and invite and bring your friends to church! Wear your favorite team jersey/shirt! There will be a Tailgating Competition on our front lawn during all 3 services (so come early and plan to hang out after the service). Respond to this email or sign up on your Connect Card if you’d like to partcipate in the Tailgating Competition. There will be prizes, giveaways, and the Kona Ice Truck! We even have real tickets for you to use as invite cards for your friends! It’s going to be an awesome day you won’t want to miss!
I can’t thank everyone enough for committing to pay for ALL 400 chairs we need for our new worship space so quickly! Simply pay for your chair/chairs by the beginning of October. Several people have asked me if there is anything else that isn’t covered in our loan that we need to pay for in the new building. Yes, there is, mainly our kitchen appliances/supplies and the remodeling of our Coastal Kidz room/new Child-Check-In area. We will price these needs out and hopefully have a pretty accurate figure next week. Every dollar given to the new building, the All In Campaign, and these specific needs helps us to make a smooth transition and continue to grow and reach as many people as possible with the good news of the Gospel.
Here are 5 other things to remember:
