It's football season!! This is one of my favorite times of the year and I hope you and your teams have gotten off to a great start this season. Crystal and I had a great mini-vacation last week as we travelled to Knoxville to meet nephew number 3, Eli Jameson Walker and we got to spend some quality time with the family. On Friday we rolled down to Atlanta to support the Vols in a great win to start the season. However, it was a tough night for us to focus...we were sitting in section 211 and the young man that fell from section 311 landed about 5 rows behind us. It was a tough scene to witness and one I won't forget.
We have a lot of things coming up in the next week so wanted to get everybody on board with what's happening at FBCG this week:
1. Tomorrow night is BIGNITE: OMC. We'll have Chick-Fil-A and drinks and a wild, crazy and messy night planned for our students. I would HIGHLY suggest they bring a change of clothes with them to the event and they should probably wear some old stuff they don't mind getting pretty messed up in. How messy are we talking? Well let's just say that ketchup, mustard, mayo, chocolate syrup, maple syrup, peanut butter and eggs will be involved so you can take it from there. We'll be out at the Pavilion starting at 5:45 and we'll be done by 7:00. I still need some folks willing to help out tomorrow night, so if you're free please let me know ASAP!! Call, text or email me and let me know!
2. Generation Change will be back on Sunday night. We're only 2 weeks into our study and some of our students are already beginning to think and look at money differently. It's not too late for your kids to come and join us in The Attic at 6:00 PM!
3. MNF @ BWW is back!! This is one of our students favorite things that we do....we get together, we socialize and visit, we eat wings and we watch football. Times vary each Monday night due to game schedules, but this coming Monday we'll kick off the season together at BWW at Indian Lake @ 6 PM and be there until 8:30 PM. Students and parents are welcome to join us and hang out!!
4. Our new series Forward Motion will kick off next Wednesday night, September 12th. More info about that next week!
5. Our Fall Retreat for our students is going to be the weekend of October 12-14th and we will be traveling to Coker Creek Village in Coker Creek, Tennessee. It's gonna be a beautiful weekend in East Tennessee and we want your students to join us to be a part of it. The cost is $100 and that covers all meals, lodging, and t-shirts. We will be partnering with 3 churches from the Knoxville area for a great weekend. Sign-ups will start this week and all students going MUST be signed up by October 1st. Balance payment will be due on October 7th. More info to come next week.
Hope you guys have a great week and we look forward to seeing your students tomorrow night....don't forget if you're free to help tomorrow night, please call, text, or email me ASAP!
