calling all OOTs!

What's an O.O.T., you may ask? It's a classic Ken Peetism for those of you who are Out of Town right now. I want to give you all a quick preview of what's coming our way as Fall kicks off here in SLO.

First, we're preparing for the launch of College Growth Groups. It's time for us to dig into to deeper community with one another and to connect with the life of Grace as a whole. We've got adult mentors leading groups and regular church-wide groups available. I want to encourage everyone to plug in to The Source through this small group ministry.

Second, have you heard we're going to three services in the Fall? That's right, the week of Sept. 25 Grace College ministry assumes its new time slot at 11:ooam during third service. This will give some you the chance to attend service, serve somewhere and still attend college group!

Speaking of Sept.--Sept. 18 is our 2nd annual Fall Kick Off! Church across the street in Mitchell Park with food, games and activities afterward. Check this out--free food for all our guests that day. That's right, you bring your fraternity or sorority, the track team, or whoever and it's lunch on Grace Church.

Speaking of free food...we're going to host our Pizza in the Park the three Sundays following the Fall Kick Off. Yep, that's right that means free pizza for college students in Mitchell Park following church. We want the chance to get to know people who are new to the area and new to Grace in the college ministry. Pastor Tim will be out there, I'll be out there and we'll just hang out and eat great food--the best lunch deal in downtown SLO!

Good point Christal! The Hoedown is happening Oct. 29 this year. More details later, but this event is always a graet time. Get it on your calendar now!

I can't wait to get back to SLO. 3 more weeks. Pray I make it through this trying time in my life. I'm totally looking forward to all that's going to happen this year.
