We hope that you’ll invite all of your friends and family to come celebrate Labor Day and the back-to-school season with us tonight at 6:00 PM with fun on the inflatables (bring your swim suit!), yard games, and yummy food. We will be serving hot dogs, hamburgers, and Wagler’s famous chicken thighs! We kindly ask that everyone bring their favorite side dish or dessert to share!

• Because of Family Fun Night, we will not have a September Sunday Funday on September 7th. There is also no Men’s Prayer Breakfast on Saturday, September 13th due to Fall Festival.

We meet most Wednesday evenings from 5:45-7:00 PM. Quiz Meets are the second Saturday of each month starting in October through March. This year we we’ll be studying the Book of Genesis together. Even though learning the Bible can sometimes feel challenging, we do our best to make it fun, engaging, and meaningful while helping kids see the importance of hiding God’s Word in their hearts! We are planning on meeting September 3rd to start the year off; we would love to have your children join us!
