We encourage students to come early and stay late for fellowship. If you have a student that will be going into high school or a student that hasn’t gotten plugged in yet, we would love to help get them connected. We can’t do it without the parents, so we ask for your help in encouraging your child to come. We have plenty of fellowship, great worship, and lots of talk about Christ!

HIGH SCHOOL—MOVIE NIGHT
Wednesday, August 4th is movie night. We will be showing the movie “To Save a Life.” We will show it at the church during our normal youth group time. Even though it is rated PG-13, we believe it is a valuable movie for the youth to see. We ask that if you have any questions about this movie to check out the detailed movie review at pluggedin.com. If you wish that your teen opts out, please let Felix know.
