Just a Few Announcements!

Since I am a professional Minster of Announcements, I have a few reminders from Sunday morning's list. Since we had a technical glitch with the slides advancing on their own, I will slow down this presentation!

Parent's Night Out - Friday, February 12, 6:15 p.m. - 8:45 p.m. 
Registration for all children age birth to 6th grade will enjoy an evening of activities developed from the Biblical account of Jonah. All of the children will be organized by age and led through a journey of Jonah's life through storytelling, crafts, games, snacks, and the Veggie Tales movie: Jonah! The evening is free, but donations will be accepted to offset the cost of the snacks. All donations collected in excess of the cost for food will be applied to the scholarship accounts of the youth participating. 

Each child will need a sleeping bag or pad to place upon the floor as they view the movie. Any questions concerning the evening can be directed to Autumn Heaton. She has created a wonderful evening for all the kids and has the support of two adults per room in addition to the youth workers.

Men's Breakfast and Bible Study - Saturday, February 13, 7:30 a.m.
The monthly breakfast will be held in the Fellowship Hall for all the men of the church. A donation is collected for the breakfast. Immediately following the breakfast, Dr. Greever will lead the group in a Bible study and prayer time. 

Easter Musical Rehearsals will be increasing as the Drama Group will practice Sunday afternoon, February 14, at 5:00 p.m.  On Saturday, February 20, the Adult Choir and Youth Ensemble will rehearse in the choir room beginning at 9:30 a.m. 

VBS Worker's Planning Meeting - Thursday, February 25, 6:00 p.m.
All VBS volunteers will need to meet with Shannon Sikes, VBS Director, as she conducts an overview of the VBS theme and the teaching stations. Almost all of the teaching assignments have been filled, but Shannon could use a few more helpers for the week of June 13-17. If you can help, contact her soon.

These are a few of the special meetings for the month of February in addition to our weekly schedule. Thanks for reading!
