Volunteer Schedule for 8/24 and 8/31

Now this schedule will format a little differently from the previous one.  If you are a greeter for these two weeks then we would like it if you could greet for the 1st service and 2nd service.  The catch is that you can leave after you get done greeting 2nd service, making it so you only have to stay for one complete service each Sunday.  This is the same for Kids Pointe Check In and the Parking Lot Greeter.  

Whoever is doing Cafe is being asked to stay in the lobby during the entire 1st service to ensure that everything gets cleaned up and restocked in the Cafe.  So if you work the entire first service you can worship in the 11 o'clock service.  

Volunteers with kids have no need to worry.  During the 2nd service we will have a completely separate room for your kids where they will be able to sit and watch a movie and will be watched by Candy Stone.  This will make less stress for them and you so that they only have to be in one service instead of learning the same thing twice each Sunday.  

If you have any questions about the format or the schedule please do not hesitate to call me at 201-0953 or 472-7016 ext. 102. You can also email me at anthony@ridgepointechurch.com

Attacking the Day

So I've pretty much decided that I'm a lazy person.  I don't like to do much when I get off work.  I really need to study more and spend more time being in the Word.  Because of all of this I now have a new approach that I'm going to try....I'm going to wake up and attack the day.  I want every day to be approached like I am on the offensive.  I want to wake up and begin working for God when I wake up, whether it be through studying, praying, working, or spending time doing God's work with my wife.  Do you attack your day?  Or does it attack you?

A HUGE PROPOSAL

So it's official.  The Pointe has been given a challenge by a partner in our church.  He said that if we get 40 teens in one service on thursday night (before the 24th) then he will let the youth group shave his head COMPLETELY BALD!  Time to step up and represent.  Seriously, this is freaking awesome...lets pull it off!

Sunday Recap

-So had a pretty good day today.  Had a pretty productive volunteer meeting.  We have some really great volunteers who are willing to serve God with their time.  

-Evodia has been awesome in the cafe the past couple months  

-Just got an awesome proposition from Caley to work in the nursery some.  I don't think she knows how big that is for us.  It's hard to get people to work in nursery when very few of them have young babies.  

-excited to see so many teens in service today (10 today).  Our attendance for youth stuff is up which is a plus. 

-found out the music guy from the church I grew up in is moving to Alabama.  He's awesome and I'm sure the church he is going to is going to be blown away by the talent and sincerity he brings to the position.

What A Freaking Blast

So I can honestly say that tonight was about as much fun as I've ever had in ministry.  The teens came out in full force and helped tonight be a freaking awesome night.  Katie and I are so proud of our teens that keep coming out to support our group and have a good time.  Big props to Zach for winning tonight and getting the free trip to Carowinds.  Our 2nd and 3rd place were Samantha and Lydia...come on guys, you gotta represent a little better.  Also, tonight was the first night we used our microphone system and we are gonna keep using it because it's so loud.  I love it and we can also make it to where it echoes.  So cool.

Olympics Tonight

Tonight is the first ever Bizarro Olympics from 7-9.  Remember to wear stuff you can get somewhat dirty and that I need to know if anyone is allergic to any food (I really don't want the teens to die).  Come ready for a good time and weird events.  Should be a blast.
