UMYF Sunday: Life is total chaos sometimes, right? So why should UMYF be any different! Come this Sunday (8/1) for SCRAMBLE NIGHT - when all our normal meeting activities are jumbled up and YOU get to decide the order. Closing prayer first? Why not! Blessing after dinner? Sure! (We'll also talk about making order out of the chaos!). 6-8 in the CLLC!

Atlanta Road Trip: Sunday is the final day to sign up for our big trip to Atlanta. We'll leave on Friday morning, August 6, see a Braves game that night, go to Six Flags all day Saturday and return home on Sunday after church. Cost is $100 per person and includes transportation, 2 nights hotel room, tickets to the game and park, and breakfast both mornings. Please bring extra money for meals and spending money (if desired). To sign up, call Elizabeth (813-8700).

Prayers for Casey McCurley: As many of you know, Casey was involved in a skateboarding accident on Monday evening. He is recovering at home but could use our prayers! Please pray for his speedy recovery and for his family as they care for him. We love you, Casey!

Boat Day 2010! Back by popular demand, BOAT DAY will be Sunday, August 15 from 1:30 - 5:30pm. This fun day on Beresford Creek is a great way to end the summer and greet the school year.

Sign-ups will be taken on a first come, first served basis. If you own a boat and would like to captain it for this event, please contact Brad Nyers at bradnyers@gmail.com.
