The church will be needing someone to do cleaning. Two families have indicated an interest but if others are interested let your Pastor or a deacon know.
We will no longer be opening the pantry. We continue to serve the community. If you know of a family in need please let Pastor Lonnie, April Jones or Kendra know and we will get a food box to them.
We have the promise that the parking lot will be resurfaced (tar and gravel) this month. When that happens, because we will want to stay off the work, there might be the need to not have a Wednesday night service.
July ARC food items:
Instant oatmeal, Pop-tarts and cans of mixed fruit. Personal hygiene items are always needed too. You may also make a financial donation.
Flood Victims in Texas Offering:
We will receive an offering for Flood victims in Texas on Sunday July 20th to be sent to Samaritans Purse for their U.S. down there. They are already working there and this would be a contribution to help in their work for those affected by the storm.
We will need an Adult Sunday School Teacher(s):
We will be scheduling several different people during the next weeks. If you want to teach let your pastor or a deacon know. Pray that one person or even a couple of people will share this position.
Sunday School teaching schedule:
July 13-no Sunday School
July 20th-Curtis Barker will teach
July 27th-Kris Little will teach
August 3rd-Zane Blevins will teach
Back 2 School Blast:
Pastor Lonnie has agreed that we would collect glue sticks again for the Back 2 School Blast. We collected nearly 1,300 glue sticks last year! We have a goal set to collect 1,000 glue sticks this year. This event draws in over 4,000 Ashe Countians and is such an amazing event for our families to get ready for the new school year. If you would like to donate, there will be a box in the back of the sanctuary. If you would rather donate monetarily, please let me know. The due date for collection will be July 27th. Ashe County Schools and the Back 2 School Blast team appreciate the support!
July 20th Sisters in Christ will travel to Yadkinville Seafood for an afternoon of fellowship:
Please let April or Teresa know if you plan to attend so we can get a head count.
Special Baptizing Service:
We will have a special Baptizing Service on July 27th at 2:00 pm at the low water bridge on the Fulton Reeves Road. The time change is to allow family members time to arrive at the service.
