Agape Special Meeting Sunday + Sunday afternoon picnic!

Hello all,

We’ve got a big weekend coming up! This Sunday morning, we will be having a very special service that will feature David and the youth sharing with us about various Spiritual disciplines (prayer, fasting, journaling, Bible intake, etc), and how God has been moving among them lately. Having gone on the Pursuit retreat, having heard the teaching they received, and having seen the mighty move of God in their midst, I urge you to come Sunday and join us for worship and word - it will be special!

Afterwards, we are going to meet at the Woodhaven Lakes clubhouse for a picnic/swim/fellowship gathering. There is a clubhouse there, a large playground for the kids, a nice swimming pool, tennis courts, and more, so it should be a lot of fun for us! The picnic/gathering begins at 2:00 pm, so you should have time to pick up your food and change clothes before we gather. Here are five things you need to know about this Picnic:

1. BYOM - Bring your own meat. There are grills at the clubhouse, and we will be grilling out meat to eat - bring enough for your family, and bring some to share as well. Don’t forget your grilling tools!

2. BYOOFAD - Don’t forget to bring your own other food and drink. This will be something of a covered dish style picnic, so be sure and bring some food and drink worth sharing. Ice and coolers will be helpful as well. We’ll provide the paper products and such.

3. BYOMS - Bring your own modest swimsuit, if you want to swim. If not, bring a tennis racket, or a frisbee, or even a good book to read somewhere in the shade.

4. BYOF - Bring your own friends. Invite a friend or two - encourage your kids to invite their friends!

5. BYOB - Bring your own Bee…I mean, Bible - because we will close out the day with a Genesis-style prayer time and Bible discussion. (all are invited - see below)

Our schedule:

2:00-3:00 - Food preparation and eating at the picnic pavilion.
3:00-6:00 - Fellowship, fun and frolicking at the pool, in the clubhouse, at the tennis courts, and on the playground
6:00 - Due to last week being Father’s Day, and next Sunday being July 4th, we are planning on having our Genesis home group meeting at the clubhouse. All are invited, and we will close out our picnic with a time of prayer, and a conversational study of Jesus and His ways.

Please pray that God would radically raise our prayer and worship level together as a fellowship - we need an Awakening!
