Need some help!

Dear Folks – I mentioned on Sunday that we have a unique and fun opportunity to minister to our community next week in preparing lunch for the teens in the Britton Marching Band during band camp. 

 

We are scheduled to provide lunch on Monday for 65 people (Taco Bar and fixin’s).  We need people to donate money and/or food and need at least four people to help cook and serve it.  So far, no one has let me know that they can help cook or provide anything for it.  That’s not good!  I’ve committed our church to this event and need your help.

 

On top of that, I just got a call that one of the other churches is not going to be able to take their day (Tuesday).  Can we do both days? 

 

I’m thinking that on Tuesday we could grill some hot dogs and serve chips and water – and maybe make some brownies or something (and also need four more people).  What do you think?  Can we do this?  How cool would it be if our church is the one that comes through and supports the teens in our community! They will remember it – so will the parents!  How many families do 65 teens represent in Britton?

 

Let me know what you think.

P.S.  An update on Dave Newman – he had surgery on his leg today.  Doctors said it went well.  He did not break his neck, but does have serious injuries to the rest of his body (foot, ankle, leg, pelvis, ribs, shoulder, etc).  He will not be able to put weight on his leg for 4 – 6 months.  Please pray for this family – they are definitely dealing with a lot – and we have an opportunity to show them the love of Christ!
