Spirit Night at Spring Creek Barbeque is Thursday, Nov. 7 from 5pm-9pm. Come for great food and fellowship. The class with the most attendance will receive special awards from Spring Creek. In addition, they like to see a big turnout from the school and the church to know how much to give back to our school. They have been very generous in the past years. Come join us for Family Fellowship Game Night at Fishers of Men on Friday, October 18 at 6:30pm. Pizza will be served. Please RSVP for babysitting at mbl1231@hotmail.com . Did you know playing games helps to develop math, reading and problem solving skills? Even something as simple as moving a token down the path of a board game will increase a child’s ability to count, add, and subtract. Family game night is a win/win! It is time spent together developing skills that will transfer to other learning. It is time and opportunity to share God’s love with each other! “You shall teach them to your children, talking of them when you are sitting in your house, and when you are walking by the way, and when you lie down and when you rise” (Duet. 11:19) Vision and Hearing Screenings will be Wednesday, October 23 for all 4 year olds that have not had this done by their physician.
