Promotions and a Picnic

Hello New Heights Families,

It’s almost June, and that means it’s almost time for Promotion Sunday. That’s right! June 1^st is Promotion Sunday and Graduate Recognition Sunday.

To mark this special day in the life of our ministry we are having an ALL YOUTH GROUP FAMILY COOK OUT! I can smell the grill already! This cookout will give students a chance to hang out and welcome the new 7^th graders and congratulate our outgoing seniors. And Parents, this gives you the chance to spend some time with the Youth Leaders.

Please plan to stay after the morning services and join us for the cook out. The church will provide plenty of hot dogs, but we need your help to make this a cook out to remember.

Every Family                                  2 liter or bottles of water

Current 7-8^th graders                Salad of some sort (potato, egg, green, etc)

Current 9-10^th graders             Bag of Chips AND a dessert (nothing frozen cause we’ll be outside)

Current 11^th-12^th graders        Fruit or veggie tray

 **current grade as in the 2013-2014 school year.

Families should also plan to bring lawn chairs, blankets and other picnic-ish paraphernalia. We will head back to the Soccer fields after the 2^nd service has ended. We’ll be done by 2.

Quick Recap -- Sunday June 1^st following the 2^nd service bring your family and your assigned dishes and drinks to the Soccer fields for an All Youth Group Family Cook Out and mingle with parents, students and leaders!

RSVP to the church office with total number of attendees—434-4676 or gabbard@whbc.org.

Thanks so much for allowing New Heights Ministries to serve your family!

Reminder about the Miami Valley Women's Center Walk 4 Life

Hey everyone,

Here's a reminder about Saturday!!


We will leave church  @ 6:30am and head to the Women's Center.

We will leave the Women's Center and return to church around 12pm.

We can grab lunch if there's interest.

AND I will pay for lunch if we get 20 people to come help!

VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

I am very sorry to have to announce that our events for tomorrow night will not be taking place. 
I apologize for the last minute changes! I know that your families are all busy and when schedules change at the last minute it often throws the whole family into a spin.

Due to circumstances beyond my control we can not attend the Dragons Game tomorrow night. And due to the thunderstorms forecast for Friday night we will not be camping out either.


What we WILL be doing is going to the Dragons Game Monday night...We will leave church @6pm and return after the game. Cost of the game is $7 (bring $$ if you want to eat at the game).

No Dragons or Camping May 9th

Monday May 12th Dragons game only
Leave church @ 6pm. Cost is $7

If you're interested in what happened, here's the scoop.

Several Months ago I ordered the tickets using a mail in form. A few weeks ago, after not hearing back from the Dragons Box office I called to find out if everything had gone through. I was told everything was in order and that we would receive the tickets in a few days. The tickets did arrive at the church shortly thereafter but since I was assured everything was in order I did not check the tickets themselves. Unfortunately Friday the 9th was unavailable when I placed the order, as was a second date I offered. What was available was Monday the 12th (my third option, but not really one I expected to have to use). For some reason we were never notified of the dates that ended up being booked.

I called the Dragons and tried to find a way for us to attend tomorrow night but they were not able to help.

So I have 30 tickets for Monday May 12th @ 7pm.

Come join me for some of America's Favorite Pastime!

Again, I apologize for the disruption and last minute changes!

God Bless!

Justin
