High Point (Trek) Meeting follow-up

If you are going with us on High Point (trek) this year and were unable to attend our meeting Sunday please drop by and pick up your packet of information. VERY IMPORTANT. Thank you! I can't wait! The peaks are chosen and waiting for us. Mount Belford and Mount Oxford are calling our names!

Social Networking

If you were unable to come to SNL Sunday night at our house you missed a great discussion on Facebook, Myspace, and texting. We talked and shared our views on the positives and negatives of these social networks. Our discussion was based on the article written in the Parentlink newsletter for JUne for all of our parents to pick up. Chaney brought out a very good point that he feels, and we agreeded, that we have reached a point of being addicted to these things. Kind of scary huh? They identify us, we can;t seem to function without them. WOW! What an eye opening experience. We also decided that if we have friends who are trying to text us during our times of worship and study that we need to let them know that we will not be excepting texts during that time because we were on God's time. NO texts excepted on God's time. We also said our fairwells to Jonathan. We will miss you brother! Jonathan will always be in our hearts. How great it is to knwo we now have a brother we can contact and visit with in Germany. God bless you Jonathan!
