NEEDING FLEXIBLE LEASE: Angel and Nicole Flores are looking for a place (home or apartment) to lease out for at least 6 months (and possibly 2-3 more, depending on when Angel graduates). Angel is at the tail-end of his Ph.D. studies, and they don’t want to sign a year-long lease. If you know of any property owners that may work with them and provide them some flexibility, please call or text Nicole Flores at 404-791-0973.

 

Upcoming Middle School and Teen Retreats 

The Middle School and Teen Retreats will be virtually using the same, successful platform on which Summer Virtual Camp was held.  IT IS NOT LIKE SCHOOL ZOOM CALLS.

So, sign up today so your child can connect with their peers around the southeast and internationally.

The cost for each retreat is $45 per person.  The dates are as follows:

  • Middle School Retreat (6-8 grades):  October 16-18

The STRONGER Virtual Conference is a one-day Global Conference, scheduled for October 24th, starting at 10 am ET. It is intended to help meet the needs of the moment. The breakout sessions will tackle topics that may not always be easy to discuss, as seen through the lens of Christianity and the Bible. While we don’t expect to solve the world’s problems in one day, it is our hope and prayer that you as an attendee will leave feeling better equipped, encouraged, and hopeful. Topics include mental health, politics, purity, professional coaching, homosexuality/same-sex attraction, and recovery.
 
Registration for the whole day is only $10 per device through October 18th and $15 thereafter, until the day of the conference.
