At this point we're going to cancel the X-Factor scheduled for December 18th. (The Hathaways will be going caroling. Call me if you're interested.)

I, Nick, will be preaching at Gracepoint, a PCA church in Glen Burnie, this weekend. Their pastor is in his 3rd round of chemo and our session has directed me to assist them. I know that Gracepoint would appreciate prayers for their pastor in this time. I will not be at worship in the morning but will be back at church for the afternoon concert.

Let's serve together

Wyld Life, Flag Football, and Fall Festival

Wyld Life Octoberfest! This Friday from 7-9pm middle school students from all over are welcome to join us for a fun evening of games, songs, and smashing pumpkins. I will be talking about why I'm convinced there is a God, so it's a good night to bring a non-Christian friend along. Hosted by Liberty Christian School in the gym. Parents, youth always appreciate snacks if you bring them.

X-Factor: Flag Football. This Sunday night from 7-8:30 for middle school and high school students. Wear your sneakers, not your cleats. We'll play some flag football and then continue our series on "How things get fixed."

Fall Festival. October 28th from 5:30-8pm. This is a great event that reaches out to bless hundreds in our community. We'll have games, candy, a petting zoo, moonbounce, gaga, bonfire, and a snack bar (to benefit the Costa Rica mission trip.) We need all sorts of help to make this event a success. We need candy and lots of it. Please bring it up to the church this weekend. We could use any mums, pumpkins, cornstalks, or hay you will let us borrow for decoration (and then we'll give it back.) We also primarily need volunteers to help the middle schoolers help the little kids with the games. If you're interested please see me after church in the back of the main sanctuary this sunday.

X-Factor: Photo Scavenger Hunt

When: 7-8:30pm Sunday Oct. 9^th

Where: 11301 Liberty road Owings Mills
MD 21117. At the little white building.
Who: 6^th-12^th
grade students. Parents are always welcome to join in the fun.
Why: As an excuse to get together and
worship the Lord and hear teaching from his Word. We’re studying “How things
get fixed” and this week Pastor Russ will be talking to us about becoming
renewed by being given new life from God. This is known as regeneration.
What: Bring a digital camera or phone
capable of transferring pictures to a laptop. We’ll form into teams and then
compete to see which team can take all of the assigned pictures of your group
in the allotted time. Then we’ll come back and watch the pictures on slideshow and
determine a winner. Extra point for each photo that is taken remotely. Extra points for photobombing (smiling, looking at camera in other group’s shot.)

Fall Calendar

High schoolers, come on out to the Crone's on Sunday night at 7pm for F.I.S.H. and evangelism training. Don't forget to bring your journal. If you don't have one, we still have some extras. Bring a snack to share.

Everybody, bring your digital camera (and a connecting cord) to X-Factor on the 9th. We had a blast last time on our photo scavenger hunt around the church campus. This time we'll add some fun memes like "planking" and "horsemaning." So bring a friend. We'll also be continuing to talk about "How things get fixed."
