Thursday, August 15, 2013

Our new school year will begin in just a few short weeks. The children are all smiles as they get to explore new classrooms and toys, etc. Teachers are smiling because they can finally do some REAL cleaning. Teachers are decorating and planning for their new learners and the children are excited to be a part of it all. Once again we are crying while smiling because we are losing and gaining new friends. We are preparing to embrace new learning with our upcoming threes. We are looking forward to a fabulous new school year at ARBC-CDC.

A Love Offering will be taken up!

Sunday, August 18, 2013 If you wish to participate please call the office by Tuesday, August 13 and indicate which service you would like the dedication, and submit any pictures you would like shown during the dedication by August 13 as well.

Tonight @ 6:00pm in the Activities Building Ashley River Heritage and Inter-generational Sharing. Welcome to our newest members: Please greet them and let them know how glad you are they are here.

Is abundance holding you back from something greater? Fight back against overindulgence, materialism and greed by joining us in Jen Hatmaker’s The 7 Experiment. Discover how temporarily disengaging from excess can allow God’s heart to break through your stuff and open your eyes to the things that really matter.

A new season of handbell ringing is upon us! The Thanksgiving &Advent seasons are just around the corner. It is time again to start preparing a great musical adventure! ARBC & Matthew Swingle are opening up two handbell workshop retreats to anyone who is currently in middle school to adult-age to attend these upcoming workshops. At these retreats we will learn: the basics of handbell ringing, start on new music, advanced techniques like 4-in hand & 6-in hand, handbell pedagogy, and mallet techniques. Past, present, & new Handbell Ringers are highly encouraged to attend. The Handbell Ringers had an incredible year last year, & we hope to see everyone there, new & veteran, as we grow & advance this fantastic ministry!

It’s never too early to start collecting for Operation Christmas Child 2013.

Shady Grove Senior Center has a small community garden which is in need of attention and needs some fall planting done. Meet at the church at Noon. If you are interested in helping with this project please contact Pastor Kent at 743-4471.
