Wow! What a great summer!

I hope yours was as great as mine – the MOVE Conference in Tennessee, the 9^th Grade Mystery Trip to Deep Creek in North Carolina, crazy antics with our interns Sam & Brooklynn, Summer H20, Moe’s & Chick-fil-A in L’town, the ALL NIGHT HS LOCK OUT (especially the Wal-Mart Scav Hunt!), Serving with Harvest Hope Food Bank, Carowinds & the Big (Flooded) Youth Thing, crazy game day, the Camp Bahamas Mission Trip, and the awesome “To Save A Life” Movie Event!!!  What an incredible summer with our high school youth here at Saxe Gotha and I capped it off with some family vacation time to the beach, the mountains, and I even beat my dad in a round of golf! (That rarely happens!)

And guess what…God’s not finished with us yet! There’s more to come! 

Remember…our staff and volunteers care deeply about you and are here for you! We want to walk together with you through the valleys and over the mountain tops! Please let us know about your school activities, schedules, and happenings, and, more importantly, how we can help navigate the crazy waters of your high school journey.

Join us this fall for H20 on Wednesday nights, new D Teams and small groups, and our Fall Retreat to Awanita Oct 1-3!  Check out more details below…

H₂O – It’s our mid-week time together on Wednesdays, jam packed with fun, fellowship, and growth in God’s Word.  Our fall series will kick-off with studies based on the “To Save A Life” movie. You “gotta check this out, YO!”

Sunday Mornings – Saxe Gotha has many opportunities for you to worship and grow with traditional and contemporary worship services as well as great Sunday school classes with friends and caring teachers.

D Teams -  A smaller environment to be with friends and explore God’s Truth – this is a great time together with some teams meeting on Sunday evenings here at SGPC, and others meeting off campus throughout the week.

Special Events and Trips – Throughout the year, we are planning awesome events and trips to provide opportunities for FUN, GROWTH, & SERVICE. 

You can see listed above many of the events from this summer and here’s some of the ways we will serve, grow, and have fun together in the coming year: Outreach to the homeless at Finlay Park; Fall Retreat @ Awanita Oct 1-3, Operation Christmas Child (AKA Project Shoebox) in November, and coming January 7-9, 2011, the High School Ski Trip return to WINTERPLACE with special guest TENTH AVENUE NORTH!

As you can see, there’s a place for you to belong and serve with fellow students here at Saxe Gotha!

We hope you will join us!

Soon,

Mike
