    Woodruff Church of God e-Edition Newsletter October 11, 2011

    Pastors Notes This coming weekend is an important weekend for us. Our annual FALLFEST begins early Saturday morning and concludes Sunday afternoon. FALLFEST has had 2 major purposes: 1) It is a fundraiser for the building fund, 2) It is also a reminder to our people and the people of the community that the land on which we have FALLFEST is the very land on which we will one day have our new church. We have always thought it important to have some kind of activity there because it reminds us and others that we know the vision and promise that God has given to us. His promises relating to this piece of property will one day come to pass. Every year, we put a big white tent up and we flood the place with cars and people. What a testimony to people driving by that we are united in purpose, we enjoy fellowship and we are not afraid to work to see things happen!!!!! One thing is slightly different this year. Our emphasis is not so much on entertainment but on WORSHIP!!!! In the past, weve had mechanical rides, helicopter rides, etc, but this year we felt like the focus should be on the family and worship. There will still be things the family can enjoy such as bouncy play equipment for the kids (FREE), carnival games (FREE), yard sale, country store, silent auction, singing and other things under the big white tent. That is not all, because we will have some GREAT FOOD TOO!!!!! We will have Hotdogs, BBQ sandwiches, cotton candy, homemade ice cream, boiled peanuts and popcorn. Then after a day of fun and fellowship, we will finish with something amazing. This year weve added a featured worship time and we are SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS. Aaron & Amanda Crabb, from San Antonio Texas, will be our special guests. Most of you know the Crabb family and love their music. Aaron & Amanda are anointed singers who love the Lord. They are dedicated to fulfilling the call of God on their lives. They are dedicated to share the gift of music and worship with others. They currently serve as Ministers of Music at Cornerstone Assembly of God in Texas. This is where John Hagee is the Pastor. We are looking forward to this time of worship with them. THERE WILL BE A LOVE OFFERING RECEIVED DURING THIS WORSHIP TIME!

    Fallfest Schedule
    FALLFEST starts on Saturday at 7:00 AM with a yard sale. FALLFEST activities began at 11:00 AM and will run until about 3:30. Worship concert with Aaron & Amanda Crabb begins at 4:00 PM. BRING A LAWN CHAIR and be comfortable!!!!!! FALLFEST continues on Sunday afternoon at 4:00 PM. We will move our Sunday evening worship service out to the new property and worship under the tent. The service will be a wonderful time of praise & worship and the Word. We will take time to prayer walk and/or praise walk the property. Then, we will bring our VISION OFFERING to the rock altar. Please be prayerful about the sacrificial gift that the Lord would have you to give. This offering is to be a reflection of our vision of a new church on this property. I hope after our meeting last week, your vision is VERY CLEAR and you know just how close we are. What we do Sunday in this offering could very well propel us on our way!!!! SET UP for FALLFEST - Friday morning.. If you happen to be off and would like to help us set up, meet us at Carolina Grill at 8:30 AM. After a time of food and fellowship, well begin the process of loading up trucks, trailers, etc. and begin the set up. If you cant help at this time, please be willing to help us on Saturday before and after the concert. We will need help loading tables, ice chests, and etc. onto trucks and trailers. Also we need help following the service on Sunday. Well have to load chairs and stack the rented chairs. Wed love your help!!!!!!!

    Ways you can help with Fallfest

    Donate Water Please


    The Coke Wagon is being donated. PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! We need you to donate BOTTLED WATER? If you will help us with this, it will greatly assist us in making the most profit. You can drop the water off by the office or in the cloak room.

    Yard Sale
    From 7:00 AM until 10:30 AM, there will be 20 spots available for a yard sale. The spots are $20 without us providing a table and $25 if we provide the table. This sale will be up on the new property close to the road. All the money from the sale of the spots will go to the FallFest total for that day. If you have some items to sell, make your plans to participate. You must pay in advance for your spot. Please see Judy Hayes to pay and reserve your spot.

    The Country Store


    The Country Store needs items donated. You can donate canned goods, homemade crafts, Christmas decorations, or homemade baked goods. They will also be selling clothing. Please contact Mertice Whitmore, Sarah Nelson, Judy Crocker or Bobby Brown (4763470) to help pick up items.

    Heirloom Quilt
    We are working on a special project of raising $2,000 to keep this quilt as an heirloom. We hope to display it in our new church building. This quilt was made by Sis. Brenda Parker out of neck ties from the men of our church. The money raised will also be used to purchase a case in which the quilt can be preserved as it is displayed. Wont you be part of helping us preserve such a wonderful art piece, as well as, help us raise money for our building fund? See Brad Burnett to donate towards this cause.

    Basket Silent Auction

    Each Sunday School Class and ministry is asked to make a Themed Basket for the silent auction. Wrap your basket in cellophane. It is important that you make a detailed list of all the items in the basket. Ideas for baskets are: Carwash Tools Fall/Harvest Christmas Baby Girl/Boy Kitchen Items Bath/Relaxing Items Pets Hobby

    Baskets need to be dropped off no later than this Thursday. Bring them to the church office.

    Silent Auction
    See Brad Burnett soon if you have good items to donate to the Silent Auction. Look around your house and garage and see if there is something you could donate. You can call Brad at 415-3175.

    Many of us may have some old gold, silver, and coins just lying around the house. Larry Elrod, who works at Inman Mills, is a numismatic expert on appraising values. If you wish, he is willing to appraise your items. This is another way we could raise money for our Building fund. Please, let the Lord direct you as you look through your items at home. Ask God what direction He would have you take to help this great cause.

    A Note of Thanks
    Special thanks to Susie Horne for donating the Coke Wagon in memory of Sis. Eva Grubbs. Ms. Hornes kindness will help us in our fundraising efforts. We are so THANKFUL for her act of generosity!!!!
