Car Wash Details!

This Saturday, June 25 is a Car Wash to help support some of our summer activities.  If you can come out and help wash cars, or bring your car to be washed - we would love you forever :)  We will be at the Hampstead Wendy's from 10am to 2pm.

Here's the schedule for the day:
9:30am               Meet at the church
9:45am               Arrive @ Wendy's
10am-2pm          Car Wash!!
2pm                    Head Back to Church
2:30pm               Parent Pick-Up

A few notes about the day:
  • Wear clothes that you won't mind getting wet (our new shirts should be in before then)
  • Pack a lunch & eat a good breakfast (we won't be able to break for lunch at the same time or for very long)
  • Tell everyone you know to come out and help support us! (and to bring their dirty - or clean - cars!)
We need adults & students to help us out, so please let me know if you or your child can participate.

Guy's Night Details


This Friday evening from 7-11pm, there will be a Guy's Night for all of the current middle school students.  It will take place here at the church, and we will mostly be playing video games and doing some "capture the flag" variations with nerf guns. 

Here's a small list of what to bring:
a SMALL nerf gun (see attached images - these normally run about $7-$8 at Walmart or Target)
your favorite Xbox 360 or Wii video games
Snacks or drinks to share (bag of chips, bottle of soda, etc)

*please make sure anything you bring (nerf guns & games) is properly marked so as to avoid confusion later.

Also, the plans to go see Green Lantern have been scratched.After reading some reviews on the movie "Green Lantern" from pluggedinonline.com, I have decided NOT to include this in our evening activities today.  The review leaves enough question and doubt in my mind, that I do not feel comfortable taking our middle school students to see it.  It may turn out to be a good movie, and it may be something that you would enjoy seeing with your child or feel comfortable letting them see.  I simply do not have enough knowledge of the exact content of this movie to merit making it a "youth group activity" without seeing it for myself.
