Family Promise Volunteer Training

We are hosting a reorientation meeting TONIGHT, Wednesday, July 23rd, at 7:30 pm.

Please plan to join us in the Library for an informative hour, complete with hand-outs! And, if you've never volunteered, but would like to learn about this ministry, please join us.

Also, there are still a few spots available for volunteer, including evening and overnight hosts. Please see the sign-up in Ralph Hall near the water fountain. There is so much opportunity for all! Thanks!! Contact Janine Lamm-Roy with any questions.

Thanks to all the senior high students and adult chaperones who lived in Monroe, NC last week serving those in need. The REACH Workcampers lived at "Street Level" bringing the the light of Jesus Christ to the world not only by fixing homes, but by sharing worship, fellowship, prayer and laughs with their neighbors, work crew and friends. Their hearts were truly transformed by the Holy Spirit.

We are so proud of our St. George's youth!
