Dear RPC Elementary Families,
Each month, we provide an opportunity for elementary students to
engage in a mission project. This month, we will be making sandwiches
for The Open Door, one of our mission partners. The Open Door is a
residential community that serves breakfasts and soup-kitchen lunches, provide
showers and changes of clothes, staff a free medical clinic, conduct worship
services and meetings for the clarification of thought, and provide a prison
ministry.
We will be making these during Sunday School this Sunday, January 24, and we need your help with supplies. We are asking that each child bring the item that is assigned to their grade level. The items can be dropped off at the table in the middle of the elementary hall.
Grade Level Assignments:
Kindergarten: pre-packaged sliced American cheese
First Grade: pre-packaged
sliced American cheese
Second Grade: 1lb
of sliced turkey or ham
Third Grade: 1 loaf
of sliced bread
Fourth Grade: 1 loaf
of sliced bread
Fifth Grade: 1lb of
sliced turkey or ham
We are excited for the opportunity to serve together this Sunday!
Blessings,
Carrie Weatherford and Tricia Patterson

we’d love to have you join us.

Dear 5th Grade Parents,
My name is Julianne Shirek and I am the Director
of Middle School Ministry here at Roswell Presbyterian Church. I am so excited
that your student will soon be a part of the Middle School Ministry! Summer
will be here before we know it, and I want to let you know about some great
opportunities for your student to get plugged in.
We will be going to a camp called Student Life. It is June 7-11 and
located in Lookout Mountain, GA on the campus of Covenant College. Activities
include fun games, team-building activities, a talent show, and sports
tournaments for those who are interested. There is also time for students to
just hang out and spend time with one another. Each morning and night, they
will be able to worship and hear God’s Word, which is the core of what this
camp is about. Students will most definitely have a ton of fun, but it is also
a special opportunity for them to grow in their faith!
We will also be going to Chattanooga for our Chattanooga Mission Experience! This
trip is June 27-July 2. We will be working with a ministry called Widow’s
Harvest, and the students will get to help fix up houses, roofs, yards, etc.
Giving students the opportunity to serve is truly life changing. This trip has
been a favorite among students in the past, and I’m sure it will be great this
year as well!
The price of each trip is as follows:
·
Register by January 31, 2016: $425/trip
·
Register by March 6, 2016: $450/trip
If you sign your student up
for both trips, you will receive a 10% discount on each trip. Your spot is
reserved with a $100 deposit. You can sign up online at www.ryex.org.
I would absolutely love to have your student
join us on one or both of these trips. I know God will do some amazing things.
Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns about these trips, or
about the Middle School Ministry in general! You can also visit our website at www.ryex.org!
