Summer Intern…
Hey everyone! My name is Katie Grant
and I am so excited to be the summer
intern here at SBC! Many of you will
recognize me from my involvement
around the church in the past years. I
am currently just wrapping my second
year of my Bachelor of Arts degree at
the University of British Columbia in
Kelowna, in hopes to eventually get my Bachelor of Elementary
Education degree.
I grew up in Summerland and have been a part of the
Summerland Baptist Church ever since I was a little munchkin in
‘Sparks’. I was an avid participant in middle school youth, then
high school youth group when Mikel was leading it. I went on
the first missions trip to Mexico, to help share God’s love with
VBS and to build a beautiful family of 6 a home. Many of you will
know me from helping Matt with Sunday School while I was in
High School, and leading the little kindergarten and grade one
group. I also was a cabin leader to numerous of SBC’s youth
while I was working, volunteering or a Leader in Training at
Camp Tulahead for 4 years. I was also a camper there for 7 years
and it is where I first discovered and developed my relationship
with God. I am so excited for what this summer has in store and
if you see me around please say hi and introduce yourself!
To register a camper, please visit www.camptulahead.com
PLEASE NOTE! There will be a Camp Tulahead work day on Saturday, May 13, 2017. Sign up at The Hub or contact Grant Evans (call/text) 250-328-8899 for more info.
Summer Camp Sponsorships

otherwise not be able to attend a Bible-

available for Camp Tulahead or any other
Christian camp. Application forms are

hard copies are at the Hub.
Youth…
TAALOO ZOROUNA...COME VISIT WITH US The Summerland Refugee Sponsorship Group presents a free
public screening of "Taaloo Zorouna", Arabic for "Come Visit
With Us". The film is a series of interviews with four Syrian
refugee families who came to the Okanagan last year, including
two families who settled in Summerland and one in Penticton.
The film offers a glimpse into the refugees' lives and addresses
questions many people have of experiences leaving their
country and resettling in Canada.
Following the screening, join the Syrian families and members of
the Sponsorship Group in the theatre lobby for informal
conversation over specially prepared Middle Eastern hors
d'oeuvres. The screening will take place on Wednesday, May
3rd, 2017, 7:00 PM at Centre Stage Theatre, Summerland.
