Vacation Bible School 2007: Thinking you might like to direct a VBS? See Robin to apply for the position. It’s not too early to think about it and have a year to mull ideas around in your head
Women of Witness Needs: Just thought I’d put the need out there in case someone could help. Right now the ministry has received quite a few requests for help with school clothes. I try to come up with at least one outfit per child if at all possible. So if you have something sitting in a closet or drawer that isn’t being worn, please consider donating it. This week I need boy’s size 10 pants and boy’s medium shirts. I also have 5 children in need of tennis shoes. M looking for $ to purchase a new pair for them (plan to buy cheapest I can find). Please let me know ASAP so that I can get them to these families quickly. Thanks. Robin
FIESTA!!!! On September 5 at 6:30pm we would like to invite everyone who worked this year’s VBS in some capacity to come for a Fiesta Celebration here at the church. No children please (if at all possible). We’ll have some good food and drink for you and would like to have your input on ideas for next year’s VBS. We need your impression of things you saw that worked well and those things that didn’t. This type of meeting is so important for the success of next year’s VBS. Please RSVP Robin (829-2601) so she knows how much food she needs. NO ONE HAS TOLD ME THEY WILL BE THERE.PERHAPS NO ONE IS INTERESTED IN HAVING FOOD? STILL WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU. Thanks.
Baptism: Those of you who were baptized last week please write down your full name (as it will be written on your certificate) and turn it in to Pastor or Robin. The fellowship was so good! We have the best church We enjoy your company so much!
Game Night Fellowship: Let’s get together for some fun. September 15 at 7pm, here at the church. Adults only. Bring something to eat and cards, board games, or whatever you like to play.
The Never Ending Battle
1. In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and populated the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives. Then using God’s great gifts, Satan created Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream an Krispy Kreme Donuts. And Satan said, “You want chocolate with that?” And Man said, “Yes!” and Woman said, “And as long as you’re at it, add some sprinkles.” And they gained 10 pounds. And Satan smiled.
2. And God created the healthful yogurt that Woman might keep the figure that Man found so fair. And Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat, and sugar from the cane and combined them. And woman went from size 6 to 14.
3. So God said, “Try my fresh green salad.” And Satan presented Thousand Island Dressing, buttery croutons and garlic toast on the side. And Man and Woman unfastened their belts following the repast.
4. God then said, “I have sent you heart healthy vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them.” And Satan brought forth deep fried fish and chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man gained more weight and his cholesterol went through the roof.
5. God then created a light, fluffy white cake, named it “Angel Food Cake,” and said, “It is good.” Satan then created chocolate cake and named it “Devil’s Food”.
6. God then brought forth running shoes so that His children might lose those extra pounds. And Satan gave cable TV with a remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And Man and Woman laughed and cried before the flickering blue light and gained pounds.
7. Then God brought forth the potato, naturally low in fat and brimming with n nutrition. And Satan peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy center into chips and deep-fried them. And Man gained pounds.
8. God then gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite. And Satan created McDonald’s and its 99-cent double cheeseburger. Then said, “You want fries with that?” And Man replied, “Yes! And super size them!” And Satan said, “It is good.” And Man went into cardiac arrest.
9. God sighed and created quadruple bypass surgery. Then Satan created HMOs.
