Attention LPC Women!
Please join us at
6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 19, at The Works for dinner and planning time to
determine the future of our LPC Women's group. Should we meet once a
month? Is there a
particular devotion we should focus on? What will the role of mission play? We
welcome any and all ideas! If you cannot make it to the dinner, but would like
to express your opinion, see Becky McQuade, Rose Stephens or Leslie Westcott.
LPC Canoe and Church Picnic
We sure have been busy
beavers doing many outreach projects (Nast Trinity, Relay for Life, Amazing
Race, Gardening, Granny's garden, Church has left the building, VBS, etc). Now
it is time we had some fun for ourselves as a church family. We have a day
filled with fun for all. Come to part of the day or all depending on where your
interest lies. After church on Sunday August 17, we will head down to Loveland
Canoe Livery and do a 5 mile canoe trip. The canoe rental is $34.00 per
canoe; each canoe holds 2-3 people. At 4:00, we will head to LPC Butterfly
Pavilion and back yard for old fashioned games ( horse shoes, corn hole,
sack races and more) and then have a pot luck with pulled pork meal
together at 5:30 We encourage you to invite family, friends and neighbors to
come canoe, play games, and enjoy a meal with your LPC family. We will have
cards available in for you to hand out to invite someone.
Any questions see the

Mission Team
Update! Harvest Bazaar!
Our annual Harvest Bazaar will be Saturday, October 18. We will open at 2:00 in
the afternoon and scale back our "booths." This plan should allow us more time
and energy to focus on our fabulous turkey dinner. We will still have
children's games, a bake sale, crafts and silent auction gift baskets. We will
not be soliciting outside vendors, but welcome any church members who have
things to sell, for a nominal booth fee. The jury is still out on outdoor
décor, split the pot, raffle and people to people. I need folks to step up and
agree to be in charge of booths/activities, especially on the "jury is still
out" items! Please email or call me with your interest, ideas, etc. Thanks,
Leslie Westcott.
A SPECIAL
OPPORTUNITY FOR GIRLS
IN GRADES SIX
THROUGH EIGHT!!!
Bethel Murdoch, Grace Presbyterian and LPC will be sponsoring a wonderful
opportunity in the form of a fun program, for girls grades 6 - 8, on the topic
of self esteem. It is called, "I AM WHO I AM" and is Christian message based.
It will be held at Grace on Saturday, September 6, from 4:00 - 9:00 p.m. There
will be discussion groups, music, food, gifts, entertainment, but the best part,
is that it is FREE!!! We would like to promote this awesome opportunity to all
girls, church affiliated or not. If you know of a girl who would be interested,
or you can promote this in any way (place of business, girl scout troop, etc.)
please see Leslie Westcott. I could use a few volunteers to serve food to the
girls. We are also looking for donations of home baked cookies for our snack
time and donations of door prizes in the form of gift certificates, any
denomination, from places that would appeal to this age girl, like Old Navy,
Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, movie tickets, Claire's, etc. See Jan Nye to order
your gift certificates and donate to this worthy endeavor! Registration forms
will be available beginning this Sunday, or can be downloaded at
www.thebmpc.org.
In the Thanks Box this week …
On behalf of the L.I.F.E.
Board of Directors, I would like to thank you for your generous donation of food
items to the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry.
We greatly appreciate
your kindness, consideration, generosity, and support of L.I.F.E. and its
efforts in your community.
Very truly yours,
Kathy Shucktis, Volunteer
