We have several seniors this year. If you are a Senior parent, be thinking about the pictures you would like for the Senior video. We are also going to try and do a few other things this year with Senior Night! Can’t wait for this exciting celebration! Our Rewards Trip to Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH, is coming up really soon (May 28-30). Last year we paid the way for pretty much everyone that went. This year our SENIORS ONLY will go for FREE. Everyone else will be charged for park tickets as well as food. As soon as Cedar Point gets back with me, I will let everyone know the cost for this trip. We are trying something new this summer for our current Juniors and Seniors...we will be taking a Whitewater Rafting Trip on the Ocoee River on July 15-16. We would love for all of our Juniors and Seniors to go with us. This will hopefully become a yearly tradition. Because we must book in advance pretty early...I need to get an idea of who is able to and wants to go. Sign Up with ME (Andrew Jenkins) by May 12th. The Rundown: April 21 and 28 – 2 Week Series on Evolution April 21 – YODAS (Hosted by John and Susan Tice) April 28 – Parent Summer Meeting and VBS Meeting ROOM IN THE INN CITY WIDE REPORT 26 Years and Still Counting The winter of 1987 brought below average temperatures. There were frozen underground pipes, men sleeping under bridges, by the river and on benches in Centennial Park. Reports of frost bite and other harm to the homeless were not uncommon. A group of about 12 churches in 1987 took one small step with Room in the Inn. The Elders of Woodson chapel decided to join this effort. They were encouraged by the strong support of the members. The winter of 1987 was the beginning of Woodson's service. This November - March service and shelter continues. The Room in the Inn 2013 summary dated Apr. 2013 reports 176 congregations providing service to the twoplus thousand who call the streets home. Volunteers came from all age groups and all walks of life. They offered assistance as drivers of vans, preparers and servers of meals, shoppers for food, and watchers over guests during the night. Progress in this work is seen in service now offered in shelter, hospitality, education, shelter and long-term solutions. Thank you churches for your gift of hospitality!! More important is Woodson's response to our Lord's words in Matt. 25 - Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; naked and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me." Woodson Friends, Words can't express our appreciation for all the cards sent, visits, prayers and concerns expressed during my hospital stay and rehab. It's wonderful to be remembered by such loving friends. Leon Hampton Dear Woodson Family, Thank you so much for the beautiful flowers, the delicious meals and the many cards I received after my surgery. Your thoughtfulness has made my recovery so much easier. What a blessing to belong to such a loving congregation. With much appreciation, Julie Fly Thanks to everyone who send the pretty cards.
