ALDERSGATE HAPPENINGS

 

ALDERSGATE NIGHT AT THE DURHAM BULLS: Come join us for a fun night of fellowship, food and fun on Saturday, June 7th. Game time is 7:05 against the Charlotte Knights. Tickets are $8:00 each. The sign up sheet is on the bulletin board outside the office. Come out and help us root on our favorite home team. Contact Sheliah Lowans for more information.

JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM: Lead families as they walk in the footsteps of Jesus. Come and join the Jerusalem Marketplace Team. We are bringing God's Word to life at Aldersgate. No previous Holy Land or teaching experience is necessary. Mark your calendar for Vacation Bible School on July 20 - 24. Contact Regina Whitaker, Evelyn Johnson or Laura Fogle for more information.

CHILD CARE: We are looking for someone who loves children! We need someone to keep the nursery on Wednesday nights and during special events at the church. This will be a paid position. Please contact Evelyn Johnson if you are interested.

ALDERSGATE PRESCHOOL AND AFTER-SCHOOL: It is time for church members to register their child in the Weekday School Programs for both Preschool and After-school. If you have a child between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years old, you may sign them up for our half-day preschool program. Our After-school program serves children who are in grades Kindergarten thru 8th grade. If you have questions or want to schedule a tour, please call the Weekday School office at 479-8686 and ask for Karen or Mary Ann.

MEMBERSHIP MAILING LIST: The church office is working with new membership software - if you do not receive a newsletter or other mailing, please contact the church office at 477-0509. Also, if you have any changes in your contact information, please notify the office so that our  directory will have an accurate listing for you.

HEALTH KIT SUPPLIES NEEDED - MERCI has a great need for kit supplies and/or money for kit supplies (flood buckets, health and school kits, etc.). MERCI has a great need for health kit supplies, especially towels, soap, tooth paste and deodorant. For more information call MERCI at 1-888-440-9167 or visit MERCI on the Web.

FELLOWSHIP FRIENDS: Have you ever gone to a place where you knew no one, then someone came along beside you and welcomed you, introduced you to others, gave you a tour of the facilities, introduced you to different groups, asked you about your faith journey, and made you feel at home? That's what Fellowship Friends are all about. You are invited to volunteer to become a Fellowship Friend. You will be trained and given the tools necessary to accomplish the journey. What is needed from you is your commitment and willingness to guide guests who decide to become part of the community of faith at Aldersgate. Please contact Pastor Al or Kaye Harris. Thanks in Christ.  

 

REMEMBER TO WEAR YOUR NAMETAG!  For the many new members at Aldersgate, please wear your name tag each Sunday! Contact the church office if you need one.  This is an important part of Aldersgate's ministry.

 

Wednesday
Night Live

In Rick Warren's The Purpose Driven Life, Purpose #3 - You Were Created to Become Like Christ, he writes: "...Spiritual maturity is not solitary, individual pursuit! You cannot grow to Christ likeness in isolation. You must be around other people and interact with them. You need to be a part of a church and community. Why? Because true spiritual maturity is all about learning to love like Jesus and you can't practice being like Jesus without being in relationships with other people ..."

Aldersgate's Building
Committee

 

    Aldersgate's Building Committee has made the first of many decisions necessary for building our new sanctuary.  After much consideration, discussion, and interviewing, an architectural firm has been selected.  WKWW from Charlotte has "designed religious, educational, recreation facilities for over 500 churches since 1956".  Quite a number of those facilities are in the triangle area.  If you would like to know more about this group, their information and photographs of some of their facilities, are on their website at www.wkwwarchitects.com

    Please keep the Building Committee and WKWW in your prayers as we endeavor to grow Aldersgate's mission and ministry in this community.
