Weekly Church Newsletter ConneXions
Franklin Graham Lowcountry Festival September 19-21, 2008 You can still be involved in the Festival that will take place right here in Charleston this September. If you missed the Christian Life and Witness Training classes, there is still a chance for you take them. Plus, there are many ways that you can help during the festival and in the weeks leading up to it.
Wednesdays from 6:00-7:30pm Our children's summer program is ready to kick-off just for you if you have finished between grades 4K and 6th grade.
New Choir Robes Wednesdays at 6:30pm It’s time to order new robes for the Adult Choir. If you are an active member, an inactive member, but may come back or if you are considering joining in the future, we want to order a robe for you. Sizing is being done at 6:30pm on Wednesday nights in the men’s and ladies robing rooms or call the church office (766-5521) or see Yvonne Welch, Kathie Planton, or JoAnne Richardson to make other arrangements.
August 23, 2008 at 9:00am Through Sunday School and other children’s activities, your children are having the chance to learn the songs and motions that the Kidzfest choir will perform on Saturday, September 20, at the Lowcountry Franklin Graham Festival. Participating in the choir is an opportunity for you to help your child invite friends to come hear about Jesus. Encourage your child to invite a friend to our special rehearsal this Saturday at 9:00am here at Ashley River, then that friend can perform in the Kidzfest choir too. This is such a great opportunity to help our kids learn to share Jesus. Pick up tickets for the rehearsal on the patio on Sunday, August 17.
Fall Programs Start with a Bang August 27, 2008 at 4:45pm Come join the excitement and register your children for the Music and Missions programs for the new school year.
College Kick-Off '08 September 4, 2008 at 7:00pm Come on over all area college students to watch the Giants and Redskins game on the big screen in the Activities Building. There will be free food to eat and The New Explorers Club (Jason Brewer’s band) will play at halftime.
Romanian Mission Trips November 3-13 or November 12-22, 2008 Obey the Great Commission of our Lord. He said, “Go ye unto all the world.” Romania is calling, “Come over into Romania and help us." When Paul heard the Macedonian call, he obeyed immediately. You can fulfill the dream of a lifetime by being a short term missionary. Be a volunteer. God said to Isaiah, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Isaiah responded, “Here am I, send me.” Have fellowship with believers who suffered persecution under Communism for 45 years. Listen to their unbelievable stories. For years, under Communism, the Romanians said, “The Americans will come and help us.” As a nation we did not, but now, as Christians, we are going to help them. The two trips are November 3-13 and November 12-22. The cost for these eleven day trips is only $1,895.00. Come and go with us. Call Jesse Powers at 556-7058 for more information.

Golf Carts The Transportation Committee is seeking assistance in obtaining one or two golf carts for use in assisting people getting from the parking lot to the church. Also they would be helpful in activities such as picnics on the church grounds. Please contact the church office if you have a golf cart that you no longer need. Thank you.

Wednesday Night Supper We have added a new option to our regular supper menu. In addition to a regular adult or child plate, you may now choose a salad at the same price of an adult plate. A reservation for a salad is required so call before Tuesday at noon to get yours. If you already have reservations for Wednesday night and would prefer a salad, please call the church office to change your reservation. The church telephone number is 766-5521.
All Ministry Leaders As you are planning your events, please check the extended calendar to make sure that your activity doesn’t conflict with one that is already scheduled. Then, submit your activity information to the office for approval by the ministry staff so that it can be added to the calendar and we can help you advertise. If your ministry is planning a new meeting or class, even during regularly scheduled programming, and you need nursery provided for children ages birth to 3 years old, please contact Veronica in the church office or stop by and fill out a Nursery Request Form at least one week in advance so that we have plenty of nursery staff on hand to take care of your precious little ones!
TV Ministry Broadcasts of church services are on Comcast channel 2 and on Knology channel 98 and on channel 18 WJRB.
You may still donate money to our Disaster Relief Fund. Just make your check payable to ARBC and on the memo line write Disaster Relief.
