Summit Fest - Baseball & Soccer for Kids

Saturday, August 8 from 9:00 to Noon at Legacy Park 

 

Liven up the "dog days" of summer at SummitFest, a morning of sports clinics for boys and girls age 8-12 led by pros from soccer and baseball.

 

SummitFest is a community effort of six Lee's Summit churches.  Our goal is to benefit Lee's Summit Social Services (LSSS) and the kids of our city.

Registration fees pay for event t-shirts and expenses, with more than 50% going to LSSS. The sponsoring churches receive no funds.  In addition to soccer and baseball instruction, our pro coaches will share about the importance of spiritual and ethical values.

Mulan Jr
Reed Performing Arts is doing Disney's Mulan Jr. at Deerbrook Wednesday through Saturday, August 5 - 8 at 8:00 p.m.

Defying the village matchmaker, Mulan takes up arms and disguises as a boy in order to spare her father from having to serve in the army. The Huns have invaded, and it is up to the misfit Mulan and her mischievous sidekick Mushu to save the Emperor! Disney's Mulan JR. is a heartwarming celebration of culture, honor, and the fighting spirit. The show allows for a large ensemble of actors playing soldiers, family members, and brides-to-be.

Worship in the Park
Our much anticipated annual Worship in the Park will be August 30 at 11:00 a.m.
(That's not a typo, it is at 11:00.)  We'll eat right after the worship service.

Once again, we'll be at Longview Park Shelter #4. 

Fried chicken & drinks will be provided.

     N-Z Bring a dessert to share.

Plan on fun and games for the whole family! 
Christmas in July at Pro Deo Youth Center
Pro Deo Youth Center thanks Deerbrook for the wonderful support with Christmas in July. They were overwhelmed with the generosity and appreciate all that was collected last month.

They are always looking for volunteers to mentor high school aged kids, even if you only have an hour.
 
Pro Deo Youth Center works with teens in the Lee's Summit community.  They desire for every teen to be loved, valued, and equipped for change.

They run an after school program with tutoring, counseling small groups, and life skills classes.
