Fellowship Kids Announcement
Wednesday, July 21, 2010
Colonial Financial Update
Dear Fellowship,
We are so excited to announce that 10 days after announcing our transition needs we already have $34,000 given towards our goal of $70,000. Thank you so much for responding so quickly and so strongly!
We still need to rally the second half of our giving to get both outposts, Colonial Middle and Downtown Elementary, where we need them to be to keep our foot on the gas pedal when it comes to the mission God has for us.
For many of you, this is an opportunity for you to be vested and invested with us. All of us have benefited by the faith, vision and giving of 375 Fellowship visionaries 3 years ago when we raised a similar $80,000 to move into Crichton...now we need you to step up and help us make a way for future Fellowship folks to experience what you have experienced.
Please prayerfully consider helping us get to our goal of $70,000 so that we can launch into our new fiscal and ministry year full throttle. You can give on Sunday's the next two weeks. You can designate your check above and beyond giving by putting "Colonial" or "The Move" in the memo.
Thanks so much,
JB
John Bryson, on behalf of our elder team and directional team.

Family Worship Days In July
Family Worship Days will occur each Sunday in the month of July, beginning July 4. This will be an opportunity for Kindergarten through 5th grade children to join their parents for corporate worship. We hope that allowing the children to enjoy the adult service periodically will demonstrate our churches multigenerational mindset, model corporate worship for our children, and encourage community.
Nursery (Infants thru 2-3 Year Old Class) and preschool classes will continue to be provided.

Fellowship Downtown Summer BBQ
It’s been nearly a year since we launched our Outpost! We want to celebrate what God has been doing by having some good ole Memphis BBQ!
Go to The City to RSVP and volunteer a side dish or dessert (If you bring something, size your dish to feed 10-15). We’ll supply the big stuff—Ribs, Burgers, Dogs, etc….But it’d be great if a couple of us can volunteer to serve as MASTER GRILLERS for the afternoon!
There will be games, good music, and the play-jumpers for the Kiddos…and adults!
