We're at IMPACT!

We're at IMPACT Virginia! this week. We're spending the week here in Bluefield. So far things are going well. I hope to post some pictures later in the week. Please keep praying for us!

IMPACT Virginia! Commissioning

IMPACT commissioning will take place Sunday, June 15, during the morning worship service. Please make every effort to be a part of this special time and invite your family to share in the moment as well.

IMPACT VA! Bluefield

It's that time again! We are registered for another great week of Impact Virginia!

Impact Virginia! is a coed youth missions opportunity involving teenagers in "hands on" ministry projects in Virginia. Baptist youth from across the state join forces to make an impact on local communities through a variety of ministry projects focusing primarily on home renovation and construction needs of low-income, elderly, or special needs families. Each Impact Virginia session involves from 150 to 300 youth assigned to work teams of 8 - 15 persons. Participants work all day on their sites under the supervision of qualified construction coordinators and other adult leaders. Impact Virginia works with local housing and social service agencies and Baptist Associations to designate priority housing needs. Work includes painting, roofing, cleaning, interior/exterior renovation, and general carpentry. Morning and evening worship celebrations will help begin and end the day of work with the right spirit and attitude. This year we will be going to Bluefield, Virginia. The cost for this missions opportunity is $160. All forms and payments must be turned in by Sunday, April 6. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR EARLY REGISTRATION SPECIAL: SAVE $25 AND PAY ONLY $135 IF YOU TURN IN YOUR FORMS AND MONEY BY FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 29! See Tom Kern or Stephen for forms. Forms may also be found on our Google Groups page. NEW! You can also find the forms here (.pdf) and here (.doc).

I'll leave you with this message from Tom. After you read it, I think you'll be as fired up about Impact as I am!

"Just want you to know that I am really looking forward to this IMPACT Virginia! opportunity...

...It gives us a chance to put our faith in action...in plain sight...for the world to see

...It gives us a chance to strengthen our own belief...surrounded by other believers

...It gives us a chance to serve others...as we know we should

...(And, it's great fun)

...But in the middle of your preparation for this week on a construction site...

...Take a moment to think about the Carpenter

...Who travels with us, and

...Who works right alongside each of us

...Our reason for believing."

IMPACT VA! Eastville

Enjoy these pictures and videos from this year's IMPACT! We had a great time in Eastville (Eastern Shore). We had 34 youth and 8 adults participate this year. The theme "Whatever" was excellent and the IMPACT staff did a great job of challenging us this year to live our lives for God in whatever we do! Enjoy!
