FROM THE PASTOR:
"Communities In Schools" - what's that?
It's an organized program helping kids prepare for life. Two ladies who
serve as Site Coordinators for the Communities In Schools (CIS) program
shared information with the ministers at one of our Haysville Ministers
Association meetings. There are a number of opportunities for caring
adults to make an important difference in the lives of children and youth.
Among the ways persons can help are these: Be a tutor by working one-on-one
with a student or student groups in the academic area of your choice. Be a
mentor to a child or a group of children. Facilitate a group for children
on such topics as conflict resolution, social skills, careers or healthy
choices. Make a tax-deductible donation to help CIS connect children and
their families with community resources.
Can you make time to help children and youth during their formative
years? If you would like to be part of CIS look over the information on a
table in the entry area at church. If you want to be in touch with a
person who can give you more information or answer questions about helping
local schools, call the church office (524-5884).

BIRTHDAY/ANNIVERSAY
CELEBRATION
You are invited!!!! Please join us for
song, celebration, and fellowship!
Every first Sunday of the month we celebrate birthdays and
anniversaries taking place in that month. Please join us in the sanctuary
at 10:15 as we recognize those who are celebrating these special occasions.
Honorees are asked to come to the front of the sanctuary and make an
"offering" of 1 penny for each year they are celebrating and then get to
experience the pleasure of the church family singing in honor of their
occasion.
This is also a great time for Sunday school classes to share news of
what they have been doing, or by sharing skits, songs, etc....If you have
something you would like to share, just let the celebration leader know as
we gather.
February's leader will be Mike Hauser. (Thanks Mike for filling in
for me.)

YOUTH
Super Souper Bowl Sunday is here! Get
ready for a full day of fun and fellowship this Sunday, February 3rd!
The silent auction for the gift baskets put together by our youth
starts at 9 a.m. and ends at 5 p.m. You can get a number to participate in
the bidding anytime throughout the day.
The youth service auction will take place immediately following
worship. Dirty car? Streaks on windows? Need a babysitter? A strong
back? Whatever your need, we can help. Check your honey do list and then
come bid on your favorite worker.
Finally, to cap the day off, plan to come at 4 p.m. and watch the game
with us and enjoy a hearty bowl of homemade chicken tortilla, potato or
vegetable soup. There will be a video arcade for kids and dominoes/cards
for those wishing to play.
The good will offering for the soup dinner as well as all the monies
raised through the silent and service auction will go into the youth
mission trip fund. See you Sunday!
