The Annual Norcross Presbyterian Church BBQ/Bazaar will be held Saturday, October 23, 2004. The look and feel of the day will be different as the Pumpkin Patch will be open, and a new Christian band will be performing during the peek lunch hours. Also, Joe Albright, who originally loaned NPC the cooker way back when Harry Singer and friends did the cooking, will be cooking on site. Food will be served 11:00a.m.--2:00pm. Tickets on sale during October, or can be bought when you are ready to eat on October 23rd! The food tickets will cost $7.00 per adult, $4.00 per child (through age 10), family cap of $20.00. On the menu: BBQ, hot dogs, baked beans, cole slaw, dessert, cold drink. Bazaar open 8:00a.m.—3:00p.m. Fire truck visit at 10:30a.m. Face painting and games throughout the day. Boy Scout Show and Do throughout the day. Food served 11:00a.m.—2:00p.m. Electric Candlelight Band Performs NOON (Christian Rock Band) Pumpkin Patch Open 9:00a.m.—8:00p.m. Bazaar items can be dropped off at the church October 15—23. Please separate items into price categories of $1.00, $3.00, $5.00 and place them in the pre-priced bins that will line the upstairs hall that week. If you can donate clothes on hangers, that will help decrease preparation time to put the items on display. If you have items that you think will sell for more than $5.00, please put an appropriate price tag on it. Set up at 6:00a.m. See sign up sheets to help work different shifts for the Bazaar and the Patch throughout the day. AADE will send a truck at the end of the day to pick up left-over bazaar items. |

As always, we will participate in a community Thanksgiving service on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, Sunday 21 November. As not per always, we will be the hosts this year. The service will begin at 7.30 p.m. There will once again be a community choir, which will be comprised of all the participating church choirs. They will sing one of my favorite anthems. The choirs will meet for rehearsal at 6.15. This is regularly a wonderful event, where we cross denominational lines, and get to worship together with folks we know (and folks we don’t know) in the community. In some senses, when we do ecumenical things, we get a foretaste of what heaven will be like, and with whom it will be populated. After the service, we are to stick around for desert (you will be told what to bring later). Again, another foretaste of what heaven will be like. As the host church this year, it is my sincere hope that we have a good turnout, and that we make a good showing of our church home to our brothers and sisters in the community. I hope to see you here on Sunday, 21 November. |

We are looking for a few interested folks who are between the ages of 10 and 18 (roughly) who would like to be an Acolyte. An Acolyte carries a candle lighter into the sanctuary at the beginning of the service, lights a couple of candles, and then proceeds to join the congregation for worship. At the end of the service, an Acolyte comes and re-lights the lighter, snuffs the candles, and recesses with the pastor after the benediction. If you are interested in helping us “Fire it up”, then let Matt know, and we’ll do an after church, 15 minute Acolyte training, and you’ll be ready to go. |
