LifeTouch will be at the Amelia Church of Christ Tuesday, Oct. 13 through Thursday, Oct. 15 to take pictures for an
updated ACC directory. Each family (or individual) will receive a free 8-X-10 and a free directory for
participating.
There is no obligation to buy additional photos, but you will have the chance to purchase portraits in a
variety of different collections.
These photos will be back in
plenty of time for Christmas and there is even an option of selecting a
Christmas card with your family portrait on the front.
Please
watch the Web site for additional information on how to sign up for
your sitting and other details.
Remember, the more families who participate, the more complete our directory will be.
Finally, don't think you have to be an official ACC member to take part. If you consider our church your home, we want you in the directory.
Mark your calendar for the annual Amelia Church of Christ picnic on
Sunday, Aug. 30 at Woodland Lakes Christian Camp .
The fun begins with swimming
at the pool at 2:00 pm, followed by a 3:30 pm softball game. Please bring extra equipment to share
if you have it.
We’ll gather to eat at the picnic pavilion at 5:00 pm and
wrap up the day with a 6:00 pm Cornhole tournament.
The
church will provide fried chicken, and each family is asked to bring a side
dish and dessert for the potluck dinner. Also, bring drinks for your family.
This past Sunday, we introduced our newest staff member, Josh Young. Josh is now officially ACC's Creative & Communications Minister (and has thus officially resigned as a deacon). During our morning services, Josh sat down with Mike to share his vision with the church. You can now listen to it below.
Here are some other links about Josh's addition to the staff:
This Sunday, July 12, our church will learn the details of an exciting leadership move in our church as we introduce our new Creative and Communications Minister, Josh Young.
In this position, Josh will be responsible for managing all visual communications at ACC. As many of you know, Josh developed and maintains the ACC website and creates many other graphics you see each week. In his new capacity, he’ll also oversee all print publications, signage and other media.
This is currently an unpaid ministry position. Josh will retain his current job at an engineering firm. But he is, nonetheless, now an official member of the ACC staff.
Because of this exciting change, Josh has also officially resigned as a deacon at ACC.
This Sunday during both services, Josh will share his vision for this ministry.
Here are just a few of the lyrics from some of the songs surely still playing in the heads of tons of area youngsters (as well as volunteers) who attended the Amelia Church of Christ Beyond the Gold Sports Camp at Batavia Township Park last week.
ACC took a chance on a completely new concept this summer by introducing the community to a totally free Sports Camp instead of the traditional Vacation Bible School. The results were enormous as we were blessed with more than double our usual VBS turnout.
About 200 children signed up for the unique opportunity to both learn a sport and soak up plenty of God-honoring lessons about being a good sport. Each night saw kids having a blast on the field while learning the importance of teamwork, perseverance, respect, sacrifice and strategy.
Sports included soccer, flag football, cheerleading and Sports of All Sorts (ultimate Frisbee, kickball, wiffle ball and more).
