Sunday Announcements – August 9, 2015
Summer Schedule: During August, we are worshipping together at the 9am and 11am services. We will take a vacation from the 5pm, and snacks after the services, until September 13. Use the extra time to grab coffee with a friend or host a BBQ.
Women’s workshop: a toolbox for mentors. Join us on August 12 at 7:30 to learn more about practical skills & tools for serving as a mentor – whether you’ve done so before or not! RSVP via the Restoration events calendar online. Questions? acregger4@gmail.com or julianna.hutchins@gmail.com
It’s never too early to plan ahead. But it is almost too late to take advantage of tax-free shopping this weekend! Why not dash out today and grab some school supplies to pack in an Operation Christmas Child shoebox? National Collection Week (No 16-23) will be here before you know it! Want to get involved with Operation Christmas Child @ Restoration? louise@restorationarlington.org

RestoArts Workshops are coming your way this fall.

Give & Take. We desire to be a community of people who offer a lending hand and receive help from others. Restoration has set up a webpage for you to post any needs, requests, or gifts. www.restorationarlington.org/news/giveandtake/
