The Church has left the Building

The phrase "Elvis has left the building!” was often used by public address announcers following Elvis Presley concerts to disperse audiences who lingered in hopes of an Elvis encore. On Sunday, August 1, 2010 we are leaving the building, too (but we will return)!

For one whole Sunday, NewPointe will be leaving its buildings, classrooms, microphones, kids’ areas and more to go and serve. It’s called Community Impact Day or GO ‘10, and we need you. We’ll be helping people and organizations in our surrounding communities tackle things like carpentry, painting, weeding, mulching, cleaning, etc. Some will bake and deliver cookies to those who serve us - like the police, hospital, and other emergency services. Others are needed to visit the residents of nursing homes and retirement centers.

I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to make a difference. It’s a great way to convey Jesus’ love for others through your act of service. Many projects are still available. To find out more or to sign up, call the church office at 330.602.5600. Or go online http://www.newpointe.org/pages/page.asp?page_id=113313 to review what’s still available and register online!
