Getting ready for Fall Festival!

Tonite we will be preparing for and setting up game stations and booths for Friday nite's Breakthrough Fall Festival. We will begin at 6pm tonite 10/27 with pizza & fellowship and shortly after, we'll be getting to work.

Things need to be brought down from the attic, chairs moved to make way for setup, etc. So, there's lots to be done. The more hands, the sooner we can be done.

Also, volunteers and candy are still needed. Invitations are at the church available to assist you in inviting family & friends.

Noah will be selling baked goodies at the festival to help with the church building project. If you'd like to donate some baked goodies, he would be blessed.

This is an outreach to our community so let's come excited to share the love of Jesus with those who God will send our way on Friday nite! See you tonight!

Fall Festival at Breakthrough

Hello!

As snow is creeping down Thunder Mountain, it reminds us that fall is over. However, for years we have enjoyed a children's "Fall Festival" held near Halloween time. I'd love to have this for the children again this year and now we have our own building too! We have a lots of the games in our attic at the church, so I'd just need some help coordinating things to make this happen. Here are my thoughts:

Where: OUR CHURCH!!! :) Breakthrough Church
When: October 29, Friday, from 6-8 pm
Who: Church families, friends, and the community- the games are good for toddlers till about 10ish years old
Why: As children receive many messages about this holiday, we want to make sure to share the love of God and His purpose for their lives.
What: Carnival type games, like our ring toss, dart balloons, cupcake walk, etc...

Help needed:
Booth and Volunteer coordinator
- Can someone help get in the attic and see what booths we have and have a sign up sheets for families, neighbors, teens to help run that booth?
Food Coordinator- this is always a great time to sell little snack and maybe build up our children's church supply closet. Things like rice crispies, or popcorn balls or other fun little treats.
-Can someone be the point person for people to let know what they'd like to donate food -wise?
-Volunteers to run booths
-Donations of food items individually wrapped for sale
-Someone to make and/or hang flyers a few places

Please let me know if you can help with one of the coordination spots ASAP. I truly need help to make this possible.

Blessings to you,

Some of you may have already gotten this notice, so please forgive us for your seeing it again. We wanted to be sure that everyone had a chance to be informed.

On this Sunday, Sept 19th at 1:30pm you are invited to meet at their home to assist them in getting closer to their goal. They will have a BBQ lunch ready for those who will come to help them out.

If you are willing to give a hand for a couple hours or more, please contact Bethany at 209-7760 as she is helping to coordinate the work team & tasks that need to be done.

God bless you richly for sowing into these lives & this family in this manner. See you soon and remember to call Bethany if you can come, so they'll know how to proceed.
