We will have a special blessing for the backpacks during the service this Sunday. Don't miss it! 242 Group backpack coordinators, please have the backpacks to Creekside by 9:40 this Sunday.

Thanks to all who have helped make this year's program a success including: Maryann Roper, Jan Burks, Andy Slaughter, Virginia McCrae, Julie Kelly, the Breedloves, the Poole's and all the groups who worked hard to pull this together.
242 Group's Sign-Up's
242Small Groups are central to our vision and life as a church,  Our conviction & prayer is that every member and regular will be part of a small group that pursues spiritual growth, mutual ministry and outreach into our neighborhoods together - a group where people serve and care for each other as a way of life.  We call our small group ministry 242 Groups (after Acts 2:42-47).   From now through Sep 7 we will be adding to existing groups and establishing new groups.  Please come by the 242 Groups table in the lobby before or after the service to talk about your interest and sign up for a group!

Youth Alpha - September 7
youthalphaYouth Alpha is about having a chance to ask questions. "What is life all about?" "Why am I here?" "Who is Jesus?" "What does it mean to follow Jesus?" Often answers are given to us without giving us a chance to wrestle with the questions themselves.  @ Youth Alpha you get to ask the tough questions and work through the issues you've always thought about and explore unresolved doubts in a setting where your views are respected and your questions are welcomed. No questions are out of bounds. To read on, click here.
