We have a great few weeks coming up at St. Luke's! Here's what's going on:
1. Prayer buddies: continue to pray for your prayer buddies. If you don't have one, you are being paired up and will know who you are praying for soon.
2. Thanks for everyone who came to Trunk n Treat on a stormy evening. It was a great success and a lot of fun.
3. NO YOUTH CONNECTION THIS SUNDAY evening, have a safe and fun Halloween.
4. Homeless Requiem at St. Philips Cathedral is MONDAY night. Come on by anytime after 3. If you want to help serve dinner to the guests for the evening come at 5:00 or after. The worship service remembering the homeless who have died starts at 7:00pm. It s a great evening. Let phil know if you are coming so that we can organize rides. We'll be back around 9:00-9:30PM.
5. Saturday November 6 is a service day for us. Meet at church at 10:30AM. We will be helping our partner Interfaith Outreach Home (IOH) during the day. We'll have pizza for lunch and be back to church about 1:30 or so. Parent's if you can drive let Phil know. Also, IOH needs any supplies of the art/school variety. If you have some old stuff in good condition lying around and can bring it with you that would be great. (The rake and run has been canceled for now)
6. Sunday November 7 we will start late and go from 6:30-8:00, no dinner. Come for some great games and a whole lot of fun that night.
whew, that's it for now! A lot going on in the next couple weeks, please check your calendars or the online calendars. We've had a great fall so far let's keep it up.
Grace and Peace,
Phil

St. Luke's High School Parents
Hey all you high school parents,
In the next few weeks there are a few special things happening just for high school students. Wanted to keep you all updated as best that I can and we need some help on a few things too.
1. On the 17th, all the churches of Dunwoody are coming together for a night of worship for High School students to celebrate being One in Christ. We are expecting 400-500 students to come for this great night. We need your help. If you can give some time to help us set-up, manage a booth, help serve dinner (Shane's Rib Shack is donating the dinner!), or help clean up, it would be great! Let me know if you have a few hours. Volunteers would need to be to the North Atlanta Church of Christ about 4:00PM on Sunday (or sometime that evening). Also, St. Luke's is donating some individual bags of chips. If you are able to drop a box of them off in my office this week that would be great too. It's an awesome night and going to be a ton of fun. www.one.gutensite.com for more info.
Where: North Atlanta Church of Christ (on Robert's Road)
When: Volunteer meeting 4:00PM, Event starts at 5:00PM ends around 8:00PM
Cost: Free, but we need some help. T-Shirts are $5.
2. On the Thursday 21st, the LeFont Theater will be showing a documentary called Race to Nowhere about how hard we push our kids to be the greatest. If you want to go you can order tickets at http://www.racetonowhere.com/. The director will be there for a Question and Answer session too. Unfortunately, I will not be able to go, but would love to hear about it. There are two of you already on board, that I know of.
3. On the 24th, the High School Students are headed to Druid Hills Night Shelter to serve dinner. This is a fantastic opportunity to serve. We need a few more parents to help us get there and to help coordinate the meal. We could also use a few more youth to go to. It's a great way to spend an evening together in service. We could handle about 10 more people. Please let me know if you are interested or can help in anyway ASAP.
Thanks for all you do as families for the ministry at St. Luke's we are off to a great start this year! As always let me know if you have any questions, concerns, celebrations, and hopes you would like to share.
Grace and Peace,
Phil Brown
