We can’t wait to see you! We are still needing a few things, so if you could please call Debbie by tomorrow to find out what you could bring, that would a tremendous help to us!! WE’RE SO EXCITED!!

We are partnering with other churches in our community and with Convoy of Hope to reach out to the less fortunate in East St. Louis on July 22, 2017. We will be working in the Kids Zone. Here are the details from Convoy of Hope about how you can sign up to volunteer with us:

Super Summer Sundays

Next Sunday is our last Super Summer Sunday celebration at Paddler’s Pool! Join us at 6pm for dinner! We will provide the hot dogs and hamburgers. We’re asking every family to bring a bag of chips and a drink to share. If you want to bring a dessert, I know there will be people who would gladly eat it! We will swim a little later in the evening(once our food has properly digested!) This is always a fun evening, even if you don’t want to swim, we hope you will still plan on joining us!!
