Help Needed for Music Camp: August 4 through August 6

Spirit of Joy will be offering a wonderful summer musical experience for children (who have completed 2nd grade through 5th grade).

We need 2 Group Leaders in each of our different classes the children will attend. We have 4 class tracks, so 8 volunteers are needed. These could be anyone (including teenagers) interested in staying with their particular group, moving the class to their next location, and accompanying children to the restroom, etc.

We also need 5 volunteers who will plan, prepare, and serve lunch to these groups. Music Camp will be held Monday through Wednesday, August 4th-6th. There will be about 6-8 children receiving lunch at a specific time.

*If needed, we could have different volunteers on different days.

There is a sign-up sheet on the resource table in the worship center. Questions? Contact Pastor Megan or Leah Matocha.

Spirit of Joy Fellowship Friday:

Once is not enough! To celebrate the start of summer, Arlynn and Nancy Hartfiel are hosting our 2nd Friendship Friday, June 20th, from 5:30 to 7:30pm, at their home: 314 Montwood in Seguin.

There will a Fajita Bar, lemonade, tea, water and some adult beverages. Games (for kids and adults both) are available. The pool water is great so bring your suit to swim or stand in the pool with your adult beverage.There is plenty of space on the patio to sit and visit.

Please bring lawn chairs - in case seating becomes a problem.

So we know how much food to prepare, please let our hosts know you're coming. Text Nancy 830-305-3243, or sign-up at the resource table in the worship center.
