PATRIOTIC TIE FUNDRAISER!


It's that time of year again... that time of year when the kids decorate old ties and set them out for everyone to see in the foyer for judging! Then people judge which tie they would like to see the pastors wear the most by dropping money into the buddy barrel on the table next to the tie they are voting for. The tie that brings in the most money, is worn by Pastor Kevin. 2nd place by Pastor Ron, and then 3rd by Pastor Nick all the way down the list to the trustees and elders!


This year, however, we have a specific decorating theme! Instead of uglifying a tie, this year, we're going with an Independence day theme! Yesterday we gave away old ties that were all more or less Red, White and Blue in color and design, but don't just leave them plain. Encourage your kids and help them come up with some more creative designs for their PATRIOTIC TIES that will inspire people to vote with their pocket money to see the pastoral staff wear them during service on the 4th of July!


Of course you don't have to go with the old ties we gave out. Anything that can be tied around a neck can be submitted as a "tie" so think outside the box and have fun! Now is the time to get them done. We will need them turned in for judging beginning Saturday, June 12th!


SIDE NOTE: I need to apologize to our SNS kids for forgetting to mention this during Saturday's service and forgetting to make the old ties I have available to them. I still have some left, however, so if there are SNS attenders who need one, please come and see me to get one. Sorry for the oversight. - PK
