Reminders and Announcements for 1:6

The "Student" sheets are in your mailboxes (since Tuesday). They are a half sheet, front and back. If anyone needs a larger edition, let me know.

Also in your mailboxes are the sign-up sheets and a couple "get connected" fold overs. Please have a couple people take one of those and have them invite someone else to come to a 1:6 group.

We are planning to meet in the church office on Sunday for about 15 minutes or so for prayer and last minute stuff at 8:55 AM.

Let me know if we need anything else. I am really not good at thinking ahead.

Prayer for 1:6 groups:

Tonight's prayer focus for the church is the different women's Bible studies at the church, the college students and the AWANA Program.

There will be a bunch of teens going to "Scare Mare" in Lynchburg on Oct 20 - 21. Please pray for this trip. Some of the kids are unchurched.

Some announcements for 1:6 groups:

Next Sunday is Communion Sunday.

The next 1:6 group meeting night is October 21.

One way you could begin to use what God gave you to minister is to sign up to be on the "GOTO Crew". This is for everyone. We need greeters, idea people, publicity people, workers (for set up, tear down, etc.), technical people, and prayer people. We are looking for people who will talk with guests about the evening in the hopes that the conversation will lead to a decision for Christ. We could use some people who would just be available on GOTO nights to be "gophers". If any of these things fits what God has given you, then we would like you to talk to Aaron. He will be able to give you more information.

Our next GOTO night on October 28 will be a sports related theme. Yaccov Yisreal, a former Penn State football player and current Pittsburgh River Rats football player will be our special guest. There is a good possibility that we will have a former Penn State field hockey player as well. We are planning to have a "tail gate" fellowship in the Family Life Center beginning around 5:30. We are asking people to bring some sort of tail-gating food item(s) to share. Also, if you would like, wear some sort of sports jersey that evening. There are plans for a sports trivia game, video or two and an interview with Yaccov. Pastor Paul will conclude the evening with a talk about "de fence". Invite some people to come along with you to this unique, fun and energetic evening.
