Announcements for September 8-14-08

Our LIFE Group ministry is getting ready to start up. LIFE Groups are the small group ministry in our church. These groups are our way of living out Acts 2 as a church and for loving one another in all the ways Scripture describes. We are asking all people who would like to be in a LIFE Group (even if you plan to attend the same group as last year) to fill out a card in the narthex. If you are not sure about our LIFE Groups or would like more information, you can grab a booklet in the narthex as well.

If you were at our “vision night” this summer, we mentioned the possibility of a new discipleship resource. We are interested in offering a class this coming fall, provided there is enough interest from the Body. At this point, we are not committing to the accredited school program, but want to see how useful the classes are first. Would you take the class if it were offered? If so, will you contact Sonda (547-0065/ office@greenvillegrace.org) and let her know.

Welcome to Grace--If you are fairly new to Greenville Grace and would like to learn more about our church, or want to consider becoming more committed to our church, our Welcome to Grace time is for you. We gather for three weeks (September 7,14 & 21) at 6pm. If interested, let Danny know this morning.

Elders Meeting - Tomorrow night at 7pm

Women's Study-- We will be starting this Thursday, September 11 at 9:30 (morning session) and 7pm (evening session).

Children’s Church Registration--You can assist us by pre-registering your child for Children’s Church. Please fill out the tear off portion and place it in the offering plate.

3rd Annual Sharing Grace Benefit
Great family outing that also supports missions! Sharing Grace (Jeff & Tammy Dietrich) is having their 3rd Annual Benefit this Saturday, September 13th starting at 11am. This is a fun filled day of activities (for children and adults) that helps raise funds for mission purposes. The event will be at 5693 Hogpath Rd. Door prize drawings throughout the day for everyone that is participating in the events. A Spaghetti Dinner will be served between 5:30 and 6:00. This year, the funds will go toward the St Clair family (Laredo Stepping Stone) and our own Megan Maurer (Campus Crusade). For details or to purchase your entry or Meal tickets, please contact Jeff or Tammy (548.6811). You won’t want to miss it!

SHAKE Parents Night-- All parents of teens are invited to observe what happens on a typical Wednesday night in our youth group. Join us on Sept. 24th @ 7pm.

JOY Outing--If you are 55 and over, we would love for you to join us on Sept. 25th. We will be touring the Wicks Pie factory in Winchester, having lunch and then touring Silver Towne after lunch. We will meet at Shawnee Prairie Reserve at 8:45am to carpool. If you have any questions, please call Lois Jones, 548-6965.

Coming this fall. The “Weekend to Remember” will be coming to Fort Wayne in October and Columbus in December. If you’d like more information, there are brochures on the table in the narthex, or see Dan or Jeni Berger.
