Greetings!
". . . all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 This week we continue exploring fundamental Methodist beliefs as we discuss the reality and problem of sin.
- When were you first aware of the reality of sin?
- Can you think of examples of how sin that occurred before you were born has affected your life
- How does it feel to know you are a sinner?
- How does it feel to approach God with the knowledge you are a sinner?
Just a few thoughts as we prepare for Sunday.
Have a great week!
See you Sunday!

Trunk-or-Treat Carnival
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30th, 2010
Our annual Trunk-or-Treat will be held on Saturday, October 30th, in conjunction with Grant community trick or treating. This is a huge outreach event for us!
This year we will be combining our Trunk-or-Treat with Carnival Games. The games will be interspersed among the trunks in the parking lot. We need sponsors for each game. If you would like to participate in both trunk decorating and a carnival game, side by side spaces will be reserved for you.
Listed below are some of the available games --however, feel free to come up with your own. Please simply let me know so I can reserve a space for you.
2 liter ring toss, dish toss, milk bottle/baseball, balloon bust, grand prize toss, pin the nose on the pumpkin, duck pond, bounce house, fishing hole
There will be a sign-up chart in the narthex in the next few weeks, or you may simply email me your preference.
Our Needs: Please start bringing in LOTS of candy/prizes. Dollar store or Oriental Trading is great! Also, any old or mismatch dishes or glasses you'd like to donate.
Please remember this is a church function-- no scary themes or costumes -- and plan accordingly.

New Life Youth
Sunday Nights in the Fellowship Hall
Optional Meal and Hang Out 5:30 - 6:00 pm
Bible Study 6:00 - 7:30 pm
For 6th - 12th Grades
Theme: Under Construction
Building a relationship with God doesn't require a contractor's license or an architect's degree, but it does require work on our part. Having the right tools and blueprint will help you construct a solid relationship with our Holy Savior. In truth, building that relationship strong is a lifelong process - we're always "under construction."
Youth Center Renovations
The youth center is currently under renovation. If you, your family, or small group would like to adopt one of the rooms at the youth center, see Milanda for details. The adoption may include labor, wall decor, furniture or money. We are hoping to be finished with downstairs painting by October 10th.
Youth Fundraisers
Rada Cutlery: The Youth will be selling Rada Cutlery as a fundraiser. Great Christmas gifts for friends, family, parents, grandparents, neighbors, co-workers, teachers, coaches, and volunteers! Contact Sherry Newton to purchase.
Trunk or Treat: The Youth will be selling chili and fixin's at the New Life Trunk or Treat on Saturday, October 30th.
If you would like more information or to donate chili, fixin's, desert or money, please see Paula Wright.
Watch bulletin and newsletter for details.
