Just around the corner, Sunday, February 2, we are having a Connection Group Tailgating Party. Sunday, February 2 will be the “wrap up” of our teaching series “Roots: Producing Fruit That Last”. We will celebrate communion/Lord’s Supper together in worship, then join together for a fellowship outside under the oaks (yes, weather permitting).
As you may know, Sunday February 2 is Super Bowl Sunday. The game will be televised Sunday evening. In the spirit of fun and fellowship, we are planning a tailgating party. For those who have never been tailgating, think picnic food around a football theme and atmosphere.
Each Connection Group, whether a Sunday group or a weekday group, will be encouraged to have some tailgating/party/fun food for your group and others. Bring the grills, prepare your favorite dish, buy your favorite fried chicken! Let’s make it a fun fellowship under the oaks.
What’s the goal? We want to have a fun time of fellowship and find a way to introduce our connection groups to anyone not currently in a group. By the way, on that day, we will actually be starting a brand new connection group. I could not be more pleased with that!
So, on Sunday, February 2, we will not have the 8:30 service. We will combine to have one service and the church-wide tailgating party afterwards. We will have the Sunday morning Connection Groups/Bible Studies as always. We will not have the 8:30 service. So we will have 9:45 Sunday, all ages Connection Groups; followed by the 11:00 worship service with communion; and then the church-wide Connection Group Tailgating party. Please feel free to dress casual, dress warm and wear your team colors. If you are not sure what colors to wear, go ahead and choose black and garnet for the number four college team in the nation. Or you could wear Tennessee orange. Just kidding. Syracuse orange. Still kidding. Just dress warm and come to have fun. By the way, the Super Bowl is the National Football League, so, you could wear your favorite NFL team colors…or black and garnet. Either way, it should be a lot of fun.
