4th of July Picnic

admin — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 21:47:21 +0000

Join us for our 4th of July Potluck/Picnic from 6 – 9:30pm.

Everyone in the community is welcome to join us for hamburgers, hot dogs, ice cream, bounce house, hay ride, games, music/dancing, fireworks show and fellowship.

Bring your lawn chairs and plan to have a great time.

Also, there may be some concerns about the weather on Sunday. The weathermen have been predicting a 40% chance of rain for the whole week, and so far they are correct – we’ve gotten rain every day. They are also predicting a 40% chance of rain for Sunday… so here are the possible scenarios and our contingency plans:

1. It rains all week, and the field is too wet for a picnic, but the weather is good for outdoors activity. Solution: We move the picnic to our parking lot. That would mean everyone would need to park down by the soccer field.

2. The weather isn’t cooperating and it’s miserable. Solution: We move the picnic inside. Of course that would mean no bounce house, and limited games for the kids (and adults), no boot scootin, and no fireworks. But we could still have some good food and awesome fellowship.

3. The weather cooperates and the field dries up. Solution: The picnic is on!

Dedication Service

We will be having a Baby/Child Dedication Service on Sunday, May 23rd. This is a special time of committing your child to the Lord. Please email Pastor Brent at pastorbrent@churchofthesprings.org by Sunday, May 16th, to let him know your desire to have your child/ren dedicated.

FPU in January 2010

admin — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 02:31:53 +0000

As we mentioned earlier once again, Church of the Springs will be offering the 13-week course called Financial Peace University (FPU) beginning on January 3, 2010. This is open to anyone in the community – husbands and wives, singles, and juniors and seniors in high school – so if you or someone you know is interested in learning how to stay out of debt, this is the course for you. Dave Ramsey, the founder of FPU, highly recommends that husband and wife take the course jointly so that they’re on the same page. We totally agree! Also, this is not only for people currently in debt and wanting to break free, it’s a great encouragement for those of you who have no debt but perhaps want to learn more about saving for retirement or using your savings to benefit others.

If you have graduated from any FPU in the past, you are entitled to take the course (entire or any part) as many times as you like. Just a word here about older kits. You can still use the same kit, but it may be a bit confusing because there are some things that are different. If you would like to update the kit to the current version, the cost is $50; a full new kit is $90 (deeply discounted through the church) per family.

Robert and Judi George will facilitate the program, which is video driven with Dave Ramsey doing the actual teaching, and will lead the adult discussion group. Ron and Kathi Hood will lead the teen discussion group which will focus on finances from college to career. We’ve had rave reviews from teens who took the course the last time it was offered. So, teens, talk to your parents and get them to sponsor you – this may be just the thing you need to get you started on the right foot when you enter college. If you can begin your college/career with healthy financial habits, you’ll be light years ahead of your peers – AND you won’t have to break any bad habits!

But the good news is – it’s not too late for anyone to get started on the road to freedom from debt. So let’s start the New Year with a resolution to get fiscally fit as well as physically fit! For more information, please leave your comment or question below.

Mission Team is Back

Our missons team returned from Serbia on Tuesday, October 20th where Jon-Mark lead a team of 6 men in raising the roof of our sister church, Church of the Springs-Senta. The men were able to do an amazing amount of work in just ten short days. When leaving Serbia, they were comforted to know that God had worked through them to give the church a new sanctuary in which to worship.

Including Jon-Mark McMullen, the team consisted of David DiDonato, Jason Everman, Tim Brown, Dan Jeffers and Cody Schmidt.
