We got everyone off this morning for Kid’s Kamp. Relatively uneventful and they left on time! They should be rolling back in Thursday afternoon. This is also prep-week for youth camp. Cooks and sponsors are rushing around getting the final details taken care of. With camps in full swing that can mean only one thing – school is just around the corner. That means some great opportunities for ministry. Our Mission Team met Sunday afternoon and discussed projects for this fall. We will be doing some things for teacher appreciation as school starts up at Clinton (now Webster Jr. High) and possibly Webster High School. We will also provide a game day meal for the Webster football team again this year. This is a great outreach that gives us additional opportunities for ministry on the campus at Webster. We will be looking for a coordinator for this ministry. If you are interested please see me. We are also planning to have a booth again this year at the Community Block Party on September 17. We will need volunteers to man the table stay tuned for details to come in the next month.
In the meantime our nominating committee and committee on committees continues to fill ministry spots for 2011-2012. We also have an opportunity to take over a Good News Club at Robertson Elementary. This evangelistic Bible study was started last March, just after Spring Break, and have averaged 40 kids with 75 enrolled. There were also 17 professions of faith in just the few weeks the program operated before the end of school. The couple that started the club has asked if we would take over the ministry so that a church in the community would be tied to the program. This is an exciting evangelistic opportunity. All of this to say we have much to pray about and much to do. But we cannot do any of it unless you are willing to be a part. Pray about it. Give it careful consideration. Then let us hear from you!
I’ll see you Sunday.
