Missions Team Meeting this Sunday, 11/09 at SBPC

WOW... the team is growing and fundraising is exploding. The support and grace of God reminds us that He is truly in control, and loves us so much that He wants to bless us in all we do! We can take no credit for what God is doing, and therefore we can simply stand firm in our faith (Ephesians 6:10-18) and be proud to need our wonderful Savior!

Our team is growing... take a look:
* Youth Servants: Anna (Team leader), Matt (Team leader), Kylie, Megan, Wydarius, Anton, Derrick, Samantha, Ashley, Mariah, Heather, Tina, Charles, Markus, JJ, Kennedy, Kirstie, Benny, Taylor, Julian, Elliot, approx 10 more from SBPC (31)
* Adult Volunteers: Chris, Joan, Pam, Lee, Wayne, Marguerite, Dean, John, Karen, Todd, Kati, Josh, Justin, Roland, Trini, Amy, Brian, Dave, Pastor Jim, Pastor Sunny, Maryann, Emily, Shalon (23)
That's about 54 and counting... the team from SBPC and Younglife of Southbay will be meeting us for this Sunday's meeting!

Fundraising Continues:
* SATURDAY - BINGO at the church for fun and raising funds! We'll have the games ready! Check in time for all youths is 9am for setup. We'll have food servers, game managers, car washers... everyone will rotate and make things happen! Let's have a great day! We need food too, so start cooking everyone! Sandwiches will be set up for lunch!
* SUNDAY SERVICE and "Bond-Servant Auction" at the JCC Service! During service, we'll introduce the bond servant auction as a fundraiser and fun way to support the missions trip! Anna & Megan will be performing a skit on supporting the trip, Ashley will be singing with the Worship Team, Vincent, Brenton, Maudy, Paul and Jamal will be teaching a song to the congregation, and we'll show a DVD clip from the team! BE THERE at 9am to support! The auction will be held in the courtyard between services!
* SBPC Fundraisers (info coming soon)... on Tuesday 11/11 we have coupon/flyers for Pat & Oscar's in Torrance (21424 Hawthorne Blvd) where 20% of all the proceeds willbe donated to SBPC! Must have the flyer. Contact Chris to get one! And they have more coming!

And that's just a taste of what God has in store for us on this journey...
