Stuff You Need To Know

ROC—Every Tuesday night when school is in, Sr. Highers meet in the youth room for a study on how to love God and love others in a way where our lives are transformed by the Word of God and we are ready to see the lives of others around us transformed. We meet from  6:30pm to 8:00. Don’t Miss it!

FUZION—Middle School Students gather in the youth room every Wednesday night from 6:30pm—8:00 to learn more about what it means to be a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ. Games, food, a challenging lesson, and small groups are the order of the night. Make this a regular part of your life during the school year, a place where faith and life collide!

SS&W—Sunday School and Worship every Sunday morning at 9:15  for middle school and high school classes, and then we gather with the rest of the church for a time of worship and a study in the Bible. Make these times a regular part of your week, especially in the summer when we don’t have ROC or FUZION.

VBS SET UP—A chance to serve together getting the church ready for our outreach to the children in our community. Setting up tables, decorations, and making this the coolest place to be this summer. We’ll be here from 6-9pm on June 8 & 9.

VBS KICKOFF—On Sunday June 13 from 6—8pm, we are having a block party trailer here with all the games and prizes so we can get kids signed up for the week of Vacation Bible School. Sign up to help serve with this fun event.

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL—If you want to serve the week of June 14-18, it’s a lot of hard work, but very rewarding. You must sign up ahead of time if you want to help out this week. It goes from 5-9pm every night, and you will be worn out by the end of the week, but all for a good cause!

POOL 1 & 2—We are having a pool party on June 22  at the Angels (1170 Davis Mill Ln) and August 11 at the Fennings (4699 Old Country Rd) from 4-8 pm. Bring your suit, towel, and a snack or desert to share. We will provide the dogs and the drinks. Bring your family with you, and we’ll all hang together.

VBS CLEANUP— We’ll meet at the church on Wednesday, June 23 from 12 noon to 3pm to clean up the church after the wild week of Vacation Bible School. Then we’ll head over to Bridgewater for some ice cream. Bring money, and plan on being picked up at church by 5pm.

SKATE 1 & 2—We’re heading to Lynchburg on June 29th and July 20th for the skate park. Cost is $5, plus bring money for dinner afterwards. Be at the church by 12 noon, we’ll be back late. You must sign up so we have enough space in the van.

LAKE—On Wednesday, June 30, we are meeting at the Fox’s lake house (110 Water’s Edge Dr) at 4 pm to go skiing, boat riding, and swimming off their dock. We’ll have hot dogs and drinks, but everyone must bring $5 along with a dessert or snacks to share. Plan on being picked up at 8pm. The money is for gas for the boats, but no family will pay more than $20, so bring out the whole crew.

GREAT GOD & INDESCRIBABLE—Meet in the youth room at 6:30 on Wednesday, July 7 and Wednesday, July 21 with your whole family to see the Louie Giglio videos that will give you a healthy perspective on the power and faithfulness of God. Don’t miss these incredible opportunities to deepen in your faith.

KINGSFEST—Too much info to put here, you need to pick up a separate flyer that has all the details. Leaving early on July 8 and returning late on July 10, we’ll be camping at King’s Dominion. Middle School students need a parent or adult sponsor in order to go. You must sign up as there is limited space.

We are leaving the church at 5pm for the early game (it’s a double header), and will return late that night. Sign up so we can plan rides.

HIKE—On Sunday, July 25, we are leaving after church to go hike the Peaks of Otter. This is a great opportunity to enjoy each other in God’s creation and get some great exercise at the same time. Wear comfortable hiking shoes. We’ll be back late afternoon.
