2009 Festival to Focus on
Service and Care Ministries2009 Festival to Focus on
Service and Care MinistriesIn 2009, Christ the King Festival weekend will highlight our work as the sent people of Christ—members of the Village Church with a Global Mission. The Festival Dinner Auction on Friday, November 20 will focus on raising funds for our Service and Care Ministries, with half of the auction proceeds going directly to those ministries. The other half of the proceeds will benefit Camp Lutherhill. Continuing a change made last year, during the entire Festival weekend (Friday and Sunday), we will have a Service and Care Fair, where we can learn more about our Service and Care Ministries and our ministry partners. The 2009 Service and Care Fair will include Direct Ministry Sponsorships. Please plan to take part in Festival this year and help support our Service and Care Ministries. Given the current economic climate, our neighbors are in great need of our generosity and concern.
A dinner buffet of heavy hors d’oeuvre will be provided. There will be a silent auction held during dinner starting at 7:00 p.m. and a live auction with larger items after dinner. The cost is $12.00 per person plus a bottle of wine or dessert to share. Childcare will be provided at no cost.
Please contact Terri Bourne with anything you can offer for either the live or silent auction or any help that can be provided. You can plan a fun sociable event; offer your special talent, skills, or professional expertise to the highest bidder; or provide quality, hand-made crafts, merchandise, gift certificates or a basket of related items.
Please let the church office know if you plan to attend and if you will need child care.
