Due to the rain that is expected to fall in the Greenville area Thursday through Saturday (September 12–14), the pastors and ministry leaders worked together to rearrange the church schedule to postpone the Men & Boys Outing one week. We are rescheduling the outing to begin Friday, September 20th at 6:00 p.m. for dinner. For those of you who have registered but can no longer attend, or if you did not register but can attend next weekend, please call the church office to let us know.
You may arrive as early as 3:30 p.m. to the Dion property to set up camp, get acquainted with the activities' venues, enjoy some free time, or help finalize the preparations. We plan to make a PDF version of the Event Guide available to the final list of attendees early next week.
