Church-Wide Picnic

Join us for another church-wide picnic!

The Picnic will be a pot-luck style, laid back affair where we will have an opportunity to just gather together, play games, share in fellowship.

Want to volunteer? We need your help! Please contact Scott Triolo or Glendaliz Garcia. They will be happy to assign you to a team!

Extended Worship & Bonfire

We are meeting in an alternate location this Friday night for some extended worship, lots of snacks, fire and fun!

This Friday night, we will be meeting at the Barnett’s house at 7:00pm.

We will be having a time of extended worship outside and enjoy a bonfire and snacks at some point too – it should be great!

To make things more enjoyable, we’d like everyone who comes to bring a snack and a drink to contribute to the festivities.

Also, please bring a camp-style chair or outdoor folding chair. We wouldn’t want you to have to end up sitting on the ground.

We are looking forward to seeing you there.

Your bro,

-Matt

• Destination: Sam’s Knob/Black Balsam, in the Pisgah National Forest (and possibly some smaller trails for folks who are up to it)

Details:

• The drive is almost 2 hours to the hike. The hike from the parking lot to the field where we will eat lunch is about a 20 minute hike max. (easy)
• (There will be restrooms about a 10 minute walk/hike from where we will be eating lunch)
• The hike from the field to the top of Sam's Knob is about 45 minutes at a walking pace. (moderate)
• Once we reach the top of the mountain there is plenty of room for people to have fun, enjoy the view and explore.
• If there are some individuals that are unable to hike Sam's knob we may be able to split the group and have one group stay in the field or head to the creek.
• From there, we will be hiking from the field down to a creek (about 20 minutes) to play around and cool off. This is of course after we come back down the mountain as there is only one trail up the mountain. (easy)

Hiking Trip!

The Parent/Youth group of our church will be taking a hiking trip on Saturday, July 17^th and I’d like it if all of the Singles can come along – to make it a Parent/Youth & Singles hike.

This will be a good chance not only to serve the Parents and Youth of our church, it will also provide you with a chance to build relationships with families in the church. In addition, your presence and example of godliness will be a good role model for the youth of our church, who could benefit greatly from having older brothers and sisters in Christ to look up to and follow.

We will be leaving at 8:00am on Saturday, July 17^th and heading up to the Brevard, North Carolina area for a day full of hiking, lunch together and fun.  We’d really love to have you there with us. 

Please e-mail Jessica[at]sgcsc[dot]org if you can make it and also let us know if you’d be interested in helping with coordinating the hike itself too (our very own Eagle Scout, Josh Pratt will be helping lead the effort).

It will be lots of fun!

Your bro,
-Matt
