Hello Everyone, I pray that you had an awesome CHRISTmas and we are looking forward to a spectacular New Year!!! Just wanted to send you this week's announcements and ministry opportunities. Please pay particular attention to that attachments and info regarding the Overflow Youth Encounter tomorrow night.

OVERFLOW YOUTH ENCOUNTER – The day is finally here!!! Tomorrow night several churches in the area will come together to have a New Year's Eve service/overnighter for middle and high school students. The night will include worship, teaching, games, food, fellowship and plenty of fun. It will be held at the Bryan Family YMCA (501 Market St.,) downtown and will be from 10 p.m. - 7 a.m. The latest time for pickup is 8 a.m. The cost is $5 per person in advance and $7 at the door. Remember to dress in relaxed clothing since there will be a lot of activity (no church/dress shoes). There will also be a talent show that you can sign up for as well. Please help us spread the word and make sure your family and friends are there. A copy of the flier is attached as well as the permission slip and release of liability form.

Computer Classes---Saturday, January 24, 2008 10:00am

BOOK DRIVE - I am making an appeal on behalf of the Bessemer Elementary PTA. We are currently conducting a book drive in hopes of getting books in the hands of all the kids especially those who will be tested by the state on the reading proficiency. We are looking for books in new and used condition that are age appropriate for K-5 and we could use some that are of middle school level as well. The books can be dropped off in front of the Genesis media center door as we will be providing a box to receive what we collect. Our cutoff date will be Monday December 15th so that we can sort and get them in the hands of parents and children at our December PTA meeting. We are determined to raise the bar and challenge our children, parents,teachers, and administration to get the test scores to a positive range. FROM REV .NIEILS CHAPMAN.

Have a great week! Santes Beatty,
