Weekly Announcements: REEL Joy

Posted on February 10, 2012

Hi, Church!

After a few weeks of no announcements, we have a big one for this week!  Read on!

Coming Soon: REEL Joy 2012:  REEL Joy is an annual film-festival that the Youth Group (YG) puts on together with Redeemer Community Partnership (RCP) and Street Lamp Studio.  This year our theme is "Belonging, Family and Home" and for the next several weeks we'll teach on this theme from scripture while leading our youth through the process of creating their own short films.  It's a super fun time that ends with a film screening and "Red Carpet Sunday" service at church, and has been a major way that God has brought new kids to the Youth Group. 

We're expecting 40-50 kids and need some volunteer help for the upcoming REEL Joy Monday nights!  Here are some volunteer opportunities:

- Provide rides to and/or from REEL Joy on some or all REEL Joy Monday nights: 2/20, 2/27, 3/5, 3/12, 3/19, 3/26
- Provide snacks - there are two dates, 2/27 and 3/12 that we'd love to have some help with snacks. 
- Pray for the youth!  Elliot will be sending weekly prayer updates about REEL Joy.

There will be sign ups at church on Sunday for these volunteer opportunities.  As the time for the screening and Red Carpet Sunday gets closer, there will also be lots of opportunity to serve during those events as well.  We will announce those when it's time.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Take care,
Kat

Posted on November 2, 2011

Hi, Church!

Thank you all for your work in putting on the Harvest Carnival, whether it was doing set-up, being in charge of a booth, inviting neighbors, or simply being welcoming!  We had quite a few people sign-up for a faith follow-up visit from someone at our church!  Praise God!  Let's be praying that these visits will be a blessing to our neighbors! 

Here are this week's announcements:

1.  Finance & Housing Seminar: We are having a housing and finance seminar this coming Sunday, November 6th, right after church in the auditorium from 12:30-2 PM.  This is a great event to invite your neighbors as we will be learning about different bank services and how to purchase a home.  Please let me know if you plan to come and how many people you hope to bring so that we can have enough lunch and materials for everyone.  If you could let me know by noon on Friday, November 4th, that would be great!  You can just e-mail me at katherine@redeemerla.org.

2.  Health Fair:  We are co-hosting a Health Fair on Saturday, November 12 from 10 AM-1PM at the Jefferson Activity Center on the corner of Jefferson and Walton.  Free services include a basic health check-up, a diabetes screening, eye exams and legal aid.  There will be a group of people going out to do some door-to-door invitations this Saturday, starting at 11AM.  If you're interested in joining them, please contact Sarah Stoker.  We also could use a few more volunteers at the health fair.  Again, contact Sarah Stoker if you're interested in volunteering -- sarahstoker@gmail.com. 

3.  Church Thanksgiving Dinner: Please save the date for our annual church Thanksgiving potluck. It will be on Saturday, November 19th in the evening at the Hume residence.  More information and sign-ups to come.

This is it!  I hope you all have a great week!  See you on Sunday!

Weekly Announcements 10/19/11

Posted on October 19, 2011

Hi, Church,

This week's weekly announcements are coming out a little early -- read on and read carefully!

Faith Follow-up Training 
Pastor Kevin is hosting two gatherings to train people in following up with those who show a faith interest from the Harvest Carnival.  They will be on Sunday, Oct. 23 and Oct. 30 before church from 9-10 AM.  There will be childcare provided at the Kids Fun Zone in the Nursery (or on the playground -- just look for the group of kids and adults!).  If you are interested in participating in the faith follow-up but haven't signed up yet, please let me know your interest and plan to be at both gatherings since we will be covering different material at each meeting.  The training will be in English and translated into Spanish -- and we will give out materials in both languages.

Harvest Carnival Work Day
We are gathering on Saturday, Oct. 29 at 10 AM at the Hume Home to prepare for the Harvest Carnival!  We need plenty of hands to put up signs, move games, stack hay bales, and more!  If you're available, please let Lauren know at lauren@redeemercp.org.  We could really use a truck or van during this time to transport the games, so if someone has one available that they'd be willing to loan out, you can also let Lauren know!

Harvest Carnival Candy
We can still use more candy for the Harvest Carnival, so keep them coming!  You can bring them to church or drop them off at Adventures Ahead with Lauren during the week!

This is it for now!  I hope you have a great rest of the week and I'll see you all on Sunday!

A couple of announcements for you below.  One is from Amy our church treasurer and the other is another lost and found item.  Enjoy the rest of your week!

Dear church,
 
Please submit your reimbursement forms to me as soon as possible. I would like to have a majority (maybe all!) of the incurred expenses to generate a financial report for the next congregational meeting. You can go to the church website, log in and click on Document Center under Resources to obtain the reimbursement form. Please fill out the form, print it out, attach receipts, sign it (and get the ministry leader to sign it, if you're not the ministry leader yourself) and pass the form and receipts to me in person. 
 
Thank you!
 

Amy

Lost and Found item: A pair of long black gloves with cut out fingers tips were found.  If they are yours, you can retrieve them at the back hospitality table this Sunday.
