PROMOTION PARTY August 6th is Promotion Sunday for Phillip Jaynes and

other 7th graders. The youth will be having a party that

night at 5:00 in the Youth Room to celebrate his joining

our group. We cannot wait for the opportunity to add

another member to our ranks and grow in friendship

with him while sharing more of God's word and His gifts

with each other. If you know any other youth who have

been out of touch for a while, this is the perfect time to

invite them to come back! ———————————

THE GATHERING TOUR The youth will be taking the bus to attend The Gathering

Tour at Madison UMC on August 27th at 5:30 pm. This is

the traveling version of the yearly weekend youth confer-

ence. We will be attending a high energy night with per-

formances from Big Al, magician Todd Smith, and music

to celebrate our Lord and Savior. There will be amazing

worship and a lot of fun to generate excitement for the

Gathering next February. We will be coming together with

hundreds of other teens as one body to celebrate our

God.

———————————

CABIN TRIP The youth had an incredible weekend at Ben and Patsy

Rogers’ cabin. We spent the days immersed in nature,

enjoying the spectacular world that God created for us

by hiking through Red Bluff and kayaking down the Oka-

toma River. We spent our nights growing closer as a

group and getting to know each other better through

playing board games, grilling delicious food, and laugh-

ing through the night. In the end, we all were so thankful

to God for giving us the opportunity to be a part of some-

thing so beautiful and fun. We want to give a special

thanks to the Rogers for letting us use their fantastic

cabin and for cooking breakfast for us. We also want to

send out a special thanks to Lori and Richard Smithhart

for accompanying us on this journey. Without them this

trip would not have been possible.

BACK TO CHURCH SUNDAY

SEPTEMBER 17TH

We hope everyone will make a special effort to attend

church and invite a friend on Sunday, September 17th,

for our annual Back to Church Sunday. Churches across

Pearl will be participating!

We are having a special service specifically designed to

welcome people back to church, so now is a good time

to start praying about who you will invite.

Eight out of ten people say they are open to visiting

church if invited. That’s powerful! Imagine how our

community can be transformed if everyone here invited

at least one person to come to church.

A potluck lunch will follow worship on September 17th.

COME JOIN IN THE

TASTY FUN AND

FELLOWSHIP!
