Tartan Trot help this week

Liz, will you send this out first thing Monday morning. Thanks.

Hey everyone,
Tartan Trot is here. If you have some time this week to help please come by church, even if it's for just a few minutes that can make a world of difference.
Here are some specific projects we need help with.
`1. due to weather Sunday and Monday morning, we need some help for about 2 hours putting notes on people's mail boxes for the 5k race alerting them to their street being closed on Saturday morning. This goes a long way for the PR of the event and hoping people do not get too mad at us. If you can do this Monday afternoon or Tuesday sometime Phil will help you and have everything just need a few more bodies to do this.
2. Tuesday Night is Race bag packing night. we have over 1300 race bags to pack for our runners. come by church from 5-8 and help us pack, come for 30 min, 1 hr, or the whole time. The more hands on this project the better.
3. Cakes and Pies, continue to bake your cakes and pies for all the running world to enjoy. Bring them by church anytime on Thursday or Friday.

I'm sure there will be plenty more to do, if you have a few minutes this week please let us know you can help.

Grace and Peace,
Phil Brown

Youth Update for Sunday

Hey everyone,
Here's what's up for this week at St. Luke's.
1. Sunday afternoon: youth choir is meeting right after church. Confirmation 3:30-4:30, Youth Group 5:30-7:30. 
     --Sunday Night: we will continue with Tartan Trot Preparations. This week we will finish up some banners, make some cakes/pies, and walk parts the course to put notes on people's mail boxes telling them about the race. Please wear shoes you can be outside it and a coat to keep you warm. Parents if you can help us for safety sake we could use a few of you.

2. Tartan Trot: Next Saturday is the Tartan Trot. Remember the money raised goes back to you.
     a. If you haven't registered  and plan to run do so right now (www.tartantrot.com).
     b.If you haven't volunteered yet please contact Allison Thornton (aetrtlt@bellsouth.net) now. Even if you are running there are ways you can help.
     c. Pies and Cakes are still needed if you can bake one or two this coming week for us to give away that would be super. Even a plate full of a couple dozen cookies would be great too.
     d. If you have any time next week to help with set up and preparations please contact us. even an hour here or there can make a big difference. Many hands make light work.

3. Summer trips-please continue to tell us about summer trip plans with us. Information is on the website. Adults too, we could use some more adults on all our trips.

Reminder we don't have Youth Group on the 29th. February 5th will be the super bowl tailgate party. food will be brought by you bring your favorite tailgate food to share with the rest of us. We will start at 5:30 (like usual) and end at halftime of the game (probably around 7:15/7:30). We will have some other fun stuff going on as well for the evening.

As always, If you have any questions, comments or concerns please let me know.

Grace and peace,
Phil

hey everyone,
I know many of you are in the midst of finals, or preparing for the end of semester things. We are praying for you all as you finish up you semesters. If you need help with anything please let us know. We have some pretty talented people in the congregation who may be able to help you get ready for exams.

TARTAN TROT--The Tartan Trot will be here before you know it. Get those registrations in. Get your friends together to run or help on race day. Also if you are going on a trip this summer, you need to be involved as much as you can with the Tartan Trot. Here's some ways in the near future to get involved:
1. December 19th at the Live Nativity: Like last year, the Tartan Trot will have a table with hot chocolate and race forms. Pleas sign up, by telling Phil,  to help at the table that evening. Shift 1: 5:00-6:00 help set up tables and haul hot water outside, serve Hot Chocolate. Shift 2: 6:00-7:00ish serve hot chocolate and help clean up.
2. Fleece sales, Sunday morning we are selling fleeces with Tartan Trot on them. If you can stand at the table, take orders, and smile big please do so. All information will be there for you.
3. If your family sponsored, thank you thank you thank you. We are getting to a time where we need to know some things from you about the race itself. Laura Singly should be contacting you soon regarding all this information.
4. Sunday Nights in January: We will be preparing for the Tartan Trot on Sunday Nights in January. We will have fun and get a lot of work don for the race.
5. There are many ways you can help get ready for the Tartan Trot. If you have ideas or an afternoon or a few hours please let us know and we probably have something you can help with.

The Tartan Trot is a great event, yes because of the funds we raise and the work we get to do because of those funds, but also for the life of the congregation. We will welcome over 1000 people to our church! This is something to celebrate even in the midst of the hard work. Thanks everyone for your gracious support.
