Night Of Nets
I wanted to remind as well as invite all of you to Night of Nets this coming Saturday starting @1pm. We will have a great time of fellowship and also learn a little about Malaria and how we can help stop the spread of this terrible disease! There will be many fun activities and great fellowship time for us all to grow closer together as a group throughout the time we will be together.
So what is this night of nets all about?? Night of Nets….. To end Malaria is an advocacy event to help advocate and raise awareness of Malaria. The event is organized by World Vision and coincides with World Malaria day which is Saturday April 25th. Along with helping advocate and raising awareness we will also be raising money to help purchase Mosquito Nets that help in preventing the spread of Malaria by protecting families while they are asleep which is a time they are most vulnerable. For every $20 we raise, we will be able to help provide enough nets for an entire family. You may say, Scott we don't have enough time to raise money for this. Well here is what we are going to do. For the whole month of May we will be raising money and then at snack supper on May 31 I will announce how much we have raised and we will get the money sent to World Vision so that they can purchase the Mosquito Nets.
So what all will we be doing?? Well we will be learning about Malaria and how to help prevent the spread of the disease. We will also be playing games and just enjoying the fellowship of each other! We will also have a prayer and worship service on Saturday night @7pm. (Parents if you want to come to this please feel free to come and join us! It will be a grand time of worship as well as prayer) Then we will end the event with a Pancake Breakfast on Sunday morning!! If you have any further questions about the weekend please feel free to contact me at the church or on my cell.

I Have Been Horrible About Updating This :-(
Hey all of you, I am so terribly sorry that I haven't used our Web Blog to its full potential! I promise that I will strive to keep things more up to date and when I send out the monthly newsletter I will try and figure out a way that I can either upload that to here or just highlight the main things from the newsletter. Anyhow, just wanted to say sorry and I will start posting to this more regularly!!
blessings!
