Fresh Start!
NEW VERTICAL CAFÉ
Starts: Sunday, August 15 at 6:00 PM
Topic: Why Jesus? w/ David Nasser
Length: 4 Weeks
PLEASE MAKE THESE FOUR WEEKS A PRIORITY!
Vertical Café Fall Schedule:
August 15, 22, 29 & Sept. 5 - Why Jesus? (David Nasser)
Sept. 12
- Vertical Café PartySept. 19, 26, Oct. 3 & 10: Stress In Relationships (Sean McDowell)
NOTE TO PARENTS: The student ministry will no longer run Vertical Café from the beginning of August until May with all the breaks and distractions like in the past. The goal is to find blocks of time that we can meet without interruptions and complete a full study. Most Bible Studies will be 4 weeks in length and Mickey will be teaching the study while adults will oversee the breakout groups. (similar to the ladies Bible study at the church) In the winter/spring there will be more Bible studies, but please make it a PRIORITY to have your student at this FIRST BIBLE STUDY! Feel free to find Mickey if you have any questions.
UPCOMING EVENTS August 18: Kickball Tournament September 9: BCHS vs. CHS September 22: SYATP Community Rally w/ Clayton King October 29-30: Fall Retreat (Camp Livingstone)
Let me know if I can help,
Mickey

Camp 2009 (June 28 - July 2)
Details:
Crossroads Camp is at Fort Bluff Camp in Dayton, Tn (www.fbc-naca.org). This year's camp theme is two-fold: Morning study is S2AD (Spiritual 2 A Days) with Tony Eubanks, Chaplain for Clemson University; Nightly Worship studying "The World's Perceptions are not God's Reality" with David Allen, very funny illusionist. In the middle of the two studies put crazy group games, The Blob, Shaving Cream Fight, Putt-Putt, Fishing, Triathlon Competition, Ropes Courses, Dodegball, Water slide, etc... and you have a glimpse of this year's camp. Needless to say you do not want to miss it.
Cost:$250 per person
So for more info or if you have a question please contact us at (423) 728-5050
