A
Message from Jeff
Summer
has come quick! If you do not believe me step outside and check the
temperature. Along with the coming of Summer, things normally slow down
around the church but that has not been the case at the Saint. A few
examples:
- Church Workday - June 21st
- Monthly Wednesday Night Fellowship - June
25th
- Greenville Drive Family Night - June 30th
- Church-wide picnic after worship - July 13th
I know the
beauty of these summer days and the cool lake waters can be inviting on
Sunday's. I hope if you are in town you will continue to worship with us
but if you are traveling, please find a place to worship. It can be
exciting and renewing to visit a different community of faith, worship,
and sense how the Spirit is working.
Please join us this
Sunday as our youth will lead us in worship. They have just returned from
a week at Montreat Youth Conference in Montreat, NC, with 1200 youth from
around the country. They will share some of the music they learned and
share how they experienced God during the week. A huge "thank
you" to Kevin Cribbs and Amy Jackson for coordinating and providing
guidance to our youth during the week. Please share your gratitude with
them.
And one final thought...
please remember to send in your stewardship pledge. Our ministry to the
community continues even during the summer. We need your support to
continue to further God's Kingdom.
Yours in Christ,
Jeff

Church-Wide Picnic Planned

July Picnic at Herdklotz Park on July 13, 2008, immediately after
worship.

Team will provide the Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, buns, tea and lemonade. We
are asking you to bring a summer side dish to go with the Hamburgers
and Hot Dogs.

those who did not attend last year, Herdklotz Park is located at 126
Beverly Road, Greenville, SC, 29609 (off Rutherford Road across from the
Farmer's Market at the bridge). The park has the following amenities:
soccer fields, large and small shelters, playground, walking trail, sand

We
would like to thank EVERYONE who sent
food items with us to Montreat. Everything was so good and we appreciate
it all very much! We would also like to thank the entire church for supporting
all of our fundraising events and for just supporting our young people
and adults at the Montreat Youth Conference. Thank You!!
We
sincerely hope that you will join us on Sunday,

working hard to make this worship service an enlightening experience for
you. Please don't skip worship this Sunday, the kids have worked
very hard to make this enjoyable for you and are looking forward to
sharing what they learned at Montreat!
