Reminder: There are no IMPACT services or Youth Group on 4/16/14 or 4/23/14, as we’re on Easter Break. I hope you enjoy a little extra family time.
Spaghetti Dinner & Dessert Auction: This is our biggest fundraiser of the year. The proceeds from this event go to help the students participating in Summer Camp and our Summer Mission Trip to Greater Cleveland. We can use your help and support in several areas:
- Auction Items: We’re still looking for tasty bakery or teen services (cleaning, babysitting, etc.,) to auction off. If you’re able to help with this, please email me @ DAdams@phbaptist.org.
- Setup: We need help setting up tables, decorating, etc. We’ll be at the church from 9:00 am – 10:30 am. You can sign-up for this here.
- Spaghetti Dinner: This is an “all hands on deck” event. Whether you’re attending a summer trip or not, we can use your help. Details and sign-up are here.
In the meantime – consider inviting some friends and join us for Experience Easter, this Thursday and Friday evenings.
