FEBRUARY CALENDAR THIS WEEK'S CALENDAR

Through Saturday, February 13:   KDO MISSION PROJECT will collect donations for Comal County St. Jude's Center For Young Children, and deliver our gifts in time for Valentines Day.   The center is always in need of children's clothing including socks and underwear, diapers, educational supplies, snacks and toys.   What better way to celebrate Valentines Day than by "Sharing with God's people who are in need." Romans 12:13

Sunday, February 7:   DAVE RAMSEY ORIENTATION.   During the 9:30 and 10:50 Sunday School hours, learn more about this very popular financial management course to be presented here beginning Feb. 23d for 2 hours each week for 13 weeks.   The $119 lifetime registration ($50 for church members) may be the best money you ever spent, as you learn to pay off all your debt and provide yourself the financial security to help others as you always wished you could.   This is open to the public, so invite everyone you now.  More Information.   The last day to sign up is Monday, February 8!   The whole family can attend for one fee.

Monday, February 8:   ANNUAL KITCHEN CLEAN-UP at 9am.   We would greatly appreciate anyone who would like to help, and this is a good time for anyone who has left anything in the kitchen to reclaim it.

Wednesday, February 10:   WELCOME WEDNESDAY!   Glenn Groves will be on hand to tell us how he trains dogs for the job of sniffing out drugs.   Please join us for this interesting program and a good meal of tacos, Spanish rice and beans, plus dessert for $4 for adults and teens and $2 for children with a $10 cap for families.   Plus, we have child care for our youngest children, children's choirs for pre-school and elementary kids, and Bible study for youth and Bell Practice.   Some come just to eat supper from 5:15-5:45 and leave afterward.   Some come after supper for the programs which begin at 6:00, and others just enjoy the fellowship of a meal and visiting with friends.   You can choose how you participate.   Come join us!   Please call the office to let them know if you would like child care.

Friday, February 12:   MEN'S BREAKFAST at 7:30am in the Activity Center in the rear of the church.  Three dollars will buy you a good breakfast.   Visit while you eat, then there will be a short Bible lesson by Doug Williams on "Luke", so come on in and get acquainted!
