Morningview Baptist Church

Our Rookie Retreat is September 11-12 for our new 7th grade students at the Portis lake house.  We’re hoping to continue to build on the work that Christ has been doing in your life.  You’ll meet key student leaders, learn about the aims of our student ministry, enjoy some water sports, and more.  The retreat is a great way to strengthen your faith and develop relationships with adults and older students who will help lead the weekend.

Our retreat will be a 24-hour Friday and Saturday event designed to give you some solid teaching about your ‘identity in Christ’ and allow time and opportunity for you to connect with others in this ministry.  It will be memorable, and you don’t want to miss out.  Make sure you follow the “what to bring list” and get your small fee returned by Sunday, September 6th.  Welcome aboard Rookies!  We’re looking forward to a great year.

What to bring:  Bible, pen, sleeping bag, pillow, towel, sunscreen, toiletries, modest swimsuit, change of clothes.  All rookies bring a 2-liter drink; GUYS bring a bag of chips, GIRLS bring snack – Oreos, Skittles, etc.  $10 fee is due September 6th.

Journey of Faith Children’s Class

Sunday Evenings 5:00 – 6:15 pm
August 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th

We have a new four-week course designed for children who are interested in knowing what it means to be a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ.  All curious children are invited!  This class is especially designed for children who think they have already come to faith in Christ and who are interested in seeking baptism and church membership.  It will help them come to a biblically grounded assurance of salvation.  The Journey of Faith class is prerequisite to any child’s baptism and membership.  We’re also asking that at least one parent attend the class with the child.  Please register for the course by calling the church office at 272-2304 by July 31.

All students are invited to our day trip to Six Flags over Georgia on Monday, June 1. We will be leaving at 6:45 am and return around 10:20 pm.  Any student in grades 7-12 is welcome to go.  Cost is $30 plus money for two meals. All students will need to complete and turn in an updated permission form to go on this trip.  Trip fee is due Sunday, May 24th.  We need an accurate count by this date.  Make plans to join us for this fun day.
