KING’S KIDS DRAWS TO A CLOSE

After a wonderful year, the King’s Kids program had it’s last meeting on Wednesday, May 15.

The children enjoyed ice cream sundaes, practicing a hymn they will sing at this Sunday’s 11am service,

and taking aim at a big piñata full of goodies.

Once again, the success of this outstanding ministry is a direct result of the faithfulness of the adult volunteers.

Thank you for all your hard work and love of the children. Seeds of faith have been planted because of your efforts.

The adult/youth workers are:

Susan Amato, Jennifer Hewett, Verlie Jernigan, Jennifer Johnson, Shane Knight, Sue Knight, Sherri Pittman, Darlene Teeple and Larri Whitehead.

The Recreation Committee is sponsoring a trip to see the Durham Bulls play the Scranton/WB Railriders on Monday, June 3, in Durham. The Railriders are part of the New York Yankees farm system. The game begins at 1:05 pm so the group will leave at 9:00 am that morning.

We will be ordering tickets on Wednesday, May 22. If you are interested, please call the church office at 842-2929 or see Eddie Flinchum, Cost of the tickets are $9.

Bazaar 2013 Update

BAZAAR EVENT SCHEDULE FOR 2013

On the evening of 2/21/13 the Bazaar Oversight Committee met to develop the Bazaar Events schedule for 2013. As the schedule for Sharon, a very active church, was being developed it was apparent that it was going to be difficult to schedule activities related to the annual bazaar. This schedule is being provided so you can place these dates on your calendar and you can start telling your friends the plan for 2013. These events are great opportunities for you to work with and get to know the members of Sharon. We hope you find a place you feel comfortable working for this year’s Bazaar.

The event schedule currently planned is as follows:

Spring Yard Sale — March 22/23 Completed – A big success!

Chicken Dinner — March 22 Completed – Another success!

Chicken Dinner – May 17

Live Auction & BBQ Dinner — October 19

Bazaar — October 25/26 – Yard Sale, Crafts, Silent Auction, Bake Sale, Breakfast, Soup, Hot Dog/BBQ Sandwiches

The Bazaar Oversight Committee continues to meet periodically to discuss this major fundraising function at Sharon; these various events have been very successful for many years. We need to work hard to continue the success of all these events. The committee is starting to recruit individuals to lead these various areas. Open your heart to accept the various positions needed to make these major events a success. Thank you!
