We had a church party at LaVern And Carol's house. The kids loved romping around the room so much that they were the only ones we really photographed!

The February Cruise Fellowship 2012

Park Grove had a February Fellowship Cruise night! Here's a few pictures of the midnight dinner buffet, the captians wheel and the little cowboy who showed up.

First Sunday Of Advent...

It is the first Sunday of Advent and Pastor Shawn taught the children about the Light Of The World - Jesus.



Jordan comes up for the children's sermon, but settles in the other side. The babies are so cute when they come up the first time.



Cayla lights the first candle of Advent.

Phyllis & Betsy, Pastor Appreciation Day...

Today, in addition to being Pastor Appreciation Day, Phyllis and Betsy came to visit, and helped out with the Children's Sermon. The kids loved it, and Betsy even sang a song, Faith, Hope & Love.



Betsy tells the children about faith, hope and love.




Ariana was willing to come up, but only wanted to watch Betsy from afar.





The ladies, Bev, Diana, Carol, Catherine and Pam decorated the community room for our potluck after church services. It was a gorgeous, autumn theme and was beautiful. The food was great - we have a lot of good cooks in our congregation!




Our worship leader, Lora, gave the congregation a chance to tell our pastor, Shawn Wallace, how much we appreciated him and his family. Many people stood up to tell how Pastor Shawn and his family helped them in some way. There were a lot of tears and thank yous - and tons of Christian love flowing today.

Brother Kent Bourland preached the sermon, following the theme of faith, hope, and love. He gave us a little quote of encouragement:

Faith is our past, hope is our present, and love is our eternity.

And with Jesus, all things are possible. God Bless our church family, and may we continue to grow in love.

Movie Night - Flywheel

Don't miss movie night at the parsonage Saturday Septemeber 17, 6-9 PM.

Jay Austin wants to sell used cars in the worst way ... and that's exactly how he does business at his dealership. Promising much more than he can ever deliver, he'll do whatever it takes to sell a car. His manipulative ways permeate all of his relationships—even his wife and son know they can't trust him.

But as Jay works on restoring a classic convertible, he begins to see that God is working on restoring him as well. Coming face-to-face with the reality of how he truly conducts himself, Jay Austin begins the ride of his life as he commits to honoring God with his business, his relationships, and his life!

Show-Me Christian Youth Home

Saturday September 10 we are leaving for the annual Show-Me Christian Youth Home. This is an event for all to enjoy. There are plenty of things going on that day with a noon feast, tours and activities, a kid's Carnival and a concert by the Vintage Gospel Lad's. we are leaving the Church at 9:00 AM and coming back home around 2:00 PM. This is a great opprotunity to see where part of our missions money is going in regards to helping the families at the La Monte location.

Blessings, Shawn
