Greetings brothers and sisters,

Many of the young men and women of the Athens Alpha Omega Campus Ministry are excited to attend the REVIVE Campus Retreat but are having a tough time making it happen financially. The cost of the conference is $89.00 and we never want finances to prevent someone from attending. So the students need your help. If you would be interested in sponsoring a student, please contact John Crawford at (678)-629-0725. Thank you for your generosity!

Marriage Retreat is March 18-19. If you owe a balance please pay by TODAY!

ACOC SOFTBALL TEAM!

ACOC is starting its first softball team. The league is Co-ed and no experience is necessary. So far 11 church members are signed up and 4 more are needed for a full team. The team has a sponsor so the price per person might be reduced.  Games are all on Tuesday evenings. This is a great way to meet others in the community. Please contact Reese Fick at 770-880-3953 if you are interested in joining the team.
