Hey Kids... What a great time we had at our Harvest Party, except for poor Michael who cut her hand carving her pumpkin and had to be taken to the E.R. The doctor glued her cut shut instead of using stitches. Michael thanks you for praying for her and she is doing fine!
Check out the pictures from the party! Sorry I missed the apple on the string contest! It looked like great fun!
Congrats to the winners of the Guess-the-Weight-of-the-Pumpkins contest! Winners were: Pumpkin A. Lauren @ 11lbs. 4oz.; B. Tommy R @ 13lbs. 2oz.; C. Alyssa @ 13lbs; D. Michael @ 11lbs. 12oz.; E. Lily @ 11lbs. 9oz.; and F. Paul @ 12lbs. 2oz. They won the pumpkin and a package of candy. They will also each get $5 Bible dollars towards the Christmas Shopp!
A special thank you to Lauren's mom for bringing lasagna, to Ms. Shelly for the salad and garlic bread, and to Ms. Glady for cake, pumpkin bread and pumpkin cheesecake bars. Also, Kathy D. for bringing cakes and cider as a special thank you to the team that went to work at her home during our Mission Week Lock-In.

Our Potato Bar is on the schedule for November 1st, but it is being changed to Sunday, November 8th.

We would like 100% participation if at all possible.
You should be at the church by 9:00 AM to help set up. You can go to Sunday School then come back to help prepare the potatoes, etc. We will be serving them immediately following the worship service. There will be a sign up flyer handed out at Tuesday's meeting (Oct. 27), which will give you all the details. We also would like each youth to sign up to bring one of the following items for our potatoes: container of sour cream, jar of salsa, bag of shredded cheese, jar of bacon bits.

Lock-In Was GREAT!
The overnight Lock-In was a lot fun! Friday night we had a 'Get-2-Know-You' time, then we watched the movie, "Imagine That" with Eddie Murphy, and then played Sardines. Saturday we were disappointed with all the rain and had to cancel going to the Corn Maze... but... we had fun with indoor hockey, board games and team pictionary. Keep checking back... the pictures from the Lock-In will be uploaded very soon!
