July 2007

So here's the monthly calendar. Everyone ogle it before you go blind from its beauty.

July 2007:

By Your Grace…Prayer Service (Sun., 07/01, 6p) – Meet in the church’s main lobby for a special tour of the new building, then join us for a Prayer Service seeking God’s grace as this project nears completion.

Jr. + Sr. High Devotional (Tues., 07/03, 6:30-7:45p) – All of the youth group will meet together at the Hill’s home to welcome in our new members—the rising 6th graders. Expect pizza, soda, great friends, lots of fun, and a devotional, of course.

Racing & Fireworks (Wed., 07/04, 6:15p-???) – Families are invited to come out to the Anderson Speedway for an evening of local racing followed by the best fireworks in Anderson. The cost is $10 per person, which includes racing and fireworks. The races start at 7pm, but gates open early. Come out and try and sit together in the family section.

LIVEALIVE ILLUMINATE 07 (Sun., 07/08, 5-9p) – A little rain couldn’t hold this event back! Join us at Town Center Park across from the paramount on Meridian St. as we praise God and have a great time. Special guest musicians include Mike Kinney, Justin Webb, MP3 from Madison Park Church of God, and our very own Dos Maquinas. There is a kids’ play area and some fun fountains to run through, so bring a swimsuit and towel. Quiznos has issued special coupons for a discounted dinner. Bring your own lawn chairs for the most comfortable seating. Free parking available in the YMCA parking lot off Jackson.

Movie Night (Fri., 07/13, 8-11p) – Meet at the Hill’s home for another great film. Last month was “Night at the Museum.” Come and see what wonderful movie awaits us this month…hint: Card Game.

Church Picnic (Sun., 07/15, 4-7p) – Families don’t want to miss this church event at Pulaski Park. There will be games, food, fun, sunshine, and an all around great time. Invite a friend.

Girl’s Kings Island Getaway (Thur., 07/19, 7:30a – 1:00a, Fri.) – The girls of the LRCC youth group, along with any female friends and siblings are going to have a great day together at King’s Island. Meet at the building at 7:30am to ensure being at the park when the gates open. The park runs from 10am-10pm. Ladies, have a ball! More details TBA.

Guy’s Day Out (Thur., 07/19) While the ladies wear themselves out sweating in the July heat at a theme park, the guys will enjoy a much cooler day in which we grab lunch together and then take in a movie (or a nap) at the Mounds Cinema. Who knows what other fun we will find. More details TBA.

Sr. High Baseball Trip (Sat., 07/21, meet @ 5p @ the church) – All Sr. High students and their families and friends are invited to join us for a day at the ballpark taking in the great American game. Tickets will be $5 per person. Come for the baseball, come for the unforgettable “How To Score Baseball” lecture, or come fore the Frisbee dogs. Either way, be there.

GoKarts & Golf (Sun., 07/22, 6-8p) – Families are welcome to meet us out at the Anderson Raceway GoKart track for a great time racing. After the racing we will head to the Applewood Putt Putt right across the street for a quick game of pure frustration. I wasn’t even sure that this much fun could fit into one evening…and then I threw in milkshakes at the Steak & Shake! Cost: $10 per person.

Blitz Night (Sun., 07/29, 6:30-8p, @ the church) – Finally, we will play Megaball, and we’ll see if anyone can unseat the resident slushee chug champion, Aaron Estle. Last but not least will be the beginning of a new tradition…the Wiffle Championships! Don’t miss it.


Don't forget that there are weekly devotionals, except for the notable exception of Thursday July 19, 2007, and there will be no devo on that date.

Also, sign up for Youth In Action (Okolona) by no later than Sunday, July 29. The cost is $65 per person and includes three nights in the Holiday in and three meals. It's a great deal on an increidble event. Sign up on the bulletin board.

Peace,
