The June meeting of Icebreakers will be held this evening at 5:30 p.m. in the social hall. The program will be given by Pam Moore - Musical Comedy. This will be a pot-luck; bring a dish to pass and your own table service. Drinks will be furnished. Please plan to attend and enjoy good food and fellowship. If you need a ride call Gene Larson, 734-6103. |
| Ice Cream/Pie/Cake/Barbecue Sandwich Social
This yearly social event is scheduled for Sunday evening, August 1, at Faith United Presbyterian Church. A big change this year comes with the church's session approval to open it up to be an all-church project rather than just an Icebreaker project. The Icebreakers organization will still provide the leadership but all members and friends of Faith United are invited to help with the different activities - the sale of tickets, baking a pie or cake, and working at the evening social.
Anyone interested in helping in any of these areas should contact Donna Larson (734-6103) or Jim McCurdy (734-2638). |

Trivia Night Scheduled - July 17, 2010
You won't want to miss the second annual Trivia Night at Faith UP on Saturday, July 17th sponsored by the Mission Committee. Food and fellowship will be available from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. with the competition starting at 5:00 p.m. Rob Hale will be the MC for the evening. The cost to participate is $30.00 per team of six participants. Remember to think "Intergenerational" when you select your team members because the categories and questions will span centuries of useful and useless (except for trivia night) information. Proceeds from this fun event will go toward mission projects supported by the members and friends of Faith United Presbyterian Church. Sign up forms will be available starting Sunday, June 20th. |

An electric adjustable twin sized bed went unsold at the rummage sale. It is in very good condition and is similar to a hospital bed. It is extra long and comes with extra long sheets. If interested, it is yours if you can pick it up. Come to the church during business hours and have a look (8:00-4:00) or call the church for more information. Thank You. |
