Ministry Update - 11/9/11

Hello Parents & Leaders,

Here's your weekly update (hopefully limited to just one email this time)  :)

1) ALIVE Meeting - Sunday, 11/13 @ 10:20am
I need to meet with all of the parents of those going to ALIVE (just 9 days away!) so I can go over final details & arrangements.  Please meet in the Youth Chapel this Sunday, promptly at 10:20am.  Also, if you have any remaining balances due, please bring them in by this Sunday so I can wrap up the finances for the trip.  If you do not know how much your child has left, I can email it to you or show you tonight or Sunday.

2) Winter Meltdown Retreat
I have 2 open spots left for the WInter Meltdown retreat @ RVR - 1 boy's spot & 1 girl's spot.  If there is anyone else interested in going (or any friends), I need to know ASAP.  the spots will be on a first-come-first-served basis.  The cost is $150.

3) Sunday's Homework
I have started assigning "homework" at the end of our middle school service, that the students can do throughout the week for prizes.  This week's homework was to complete at least 3 days on the Quiet Time Sheet (available at the check-in table every Sunday).  If your child did not pick one up, they can grab one tonight at small group.  Please encourage them to work through these very simple devotions, and to make time in their week to do them.  The Quiet Time Sheets are a resource to help them begin a habit of connecting with God throughout their week (and not just at church).

4) Calendar Fundraiser
If you have any calendar money or extra calendars to turn in, please do so tonight!!

5) Upcoming Dates
November 13 - Final Payments for ALIVE
November 15 - 2nd Payment for Winter Meltdown
November 18-20 - ALIVE @ Ocean City, MD!!
December 4 - "Bring a Friend Day" (Special Blind BMX Stunt show @ Submerge)

Thanks to all of you for your continued support!!
