Thank You!!

All of us here at Spunky Creek and Claremore cannot say THANK YOU enough to everyone.  We have heard nothing but positive feedback from all of you about the summer meeting.  But we want everyone to know it was such a successful meeting because of all of you being here!!  We could have planned and organized all we wanted but without you being here it would have fallen flat!

I would like to say "thank you & AMEN" to all the speakers of the week.  It was obvious they put a lot of time and effort into their lessons.  They were all very edifying and uplifting, gave us lots to think and study on.  I'll let you know as soon as we get those CDs done and mailed out.  

In case you haven't heard, Skylar Cutchall was baptized shortly after the meeting!  God bless all of our new brothers and sisters in Christ!  Let's be in constant prayer for the future of the church.

Love to you all!  Until we meet again…….

Bring Your Cameras!

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!

Eric Stearnes has agreed to make a picture disc of all the activities during the week of the meeting.  If you take any pictures throughout the week, please send them to Eric at this address:  estearnes@gmail.com or #spunkycreek on Facebook.  You will have to "friend" Eric Stearnes in order to do this.  A slideshow will be shown on Saturday at the meeting containing all the pictures he received.  We will try to make this disc available to anyone interested at the close of the meeting.

Suggestions on What to Bring

The Summer Meeting is just one week away!  All of us here at Spunky Creek are so excited to see everyone!  I thought I would give some suggestions on things you might bring for the week.  It might be handy to bring outdoor chairs/blankets, bug spray, and sunscreen.  Also a reminder, we have been told the auditorium lighting is slightly dim.  

For those staying in the dorms here is a list of stuff you will need:

extra long twin size sheets (queen or king would work as well)

hand soap for bathrooms/kitchen

cooking utensils/items

towels

breakfast and lunch food

The kitchen has a full size refrigerator, oven/stove, dishwasher.  There is NO coffee pot, microwave, dishes, or pots and pans.

We are providing trash cans with liners, toilet paper and shower curtains.

There are coin operated washers and dryers available.  

And of course if anyone forgets anything there is "good ole" Wal-Mart in town and several grocery stores.  Any of us "locals" will be happy to help anyone with any needs they will have.

Please do not hesitate to contact any of us with questions.  I'm sure there are things I didn't think about that could be added to the list.  

The first Sunday service will be at the Northeast Technology Center:  1901 N Hwy 88 Claremore, OK 74017-MUST use zip code in GPS!

Fun Trip for Thursday July 3rd

We have a really neat trip planned for Thursday, July 3rd.  For anyone who is interested we are going to The Shepherd's Cross.  This is a working sheep farm in the Claremore area.  It is a beautiful setting out in the country with lots of room for the kids to run and play.  It is a great place for some picture taking!  This trip will involve a hay ride, garden tour, and some fun indoor activities as well.  It is perfect for all ages.    Not only will this be educational, but inspirational too.  We will learn about raising sheep and all that involves, but also be reminded about The Great Shepherd and how He takes care of His flock.  We have a time reserved for just our group at 1:30 that afternoon.  You can check out their website at www.shepherdscross.com.  

All of us here at Spunky Creek are really excited about the meeting!  Please don't hesitate to contact any of us with any questions or concerns.  

Important Date Coming Up

The June 1st deadline is quickly approaching!!

  We MUST have everyone's dorm reservations by that date for the college.

  We also need meal reservations as well.  At this point it looks like the meals are going to be about $5.00 per person with children 5 and under eating free.  Even if you cannot send the money for your meals that is fine, but go ahead and let us know what meals you will be eating with us. We want to have plenty of food for everyone!  If you are staying in a hotel or RV park don't forget to make meal reservations.  Even if you don't want to eat all of the meals at the college you might plan on both Sundays and Friday the 4th.  We will be together all day and it will be easier and more convenient for you.  We really feel like $5.00 is quite reasonable for the meal being offered and we understand the food is very good.  On Friday we are having BBQ catered by a restaurant in Claremore that is always delicious!

For reservations or questions please contact Jamie Newhart at jamie2-newhart@sbcglobal.net or you can call or text her at 918-633-0528.

Sister Glenda wants everyone to know she is planning a very adventurous "Amazing Race" for the older kids on Wednesday the 2nd.  She is also working on a game for the younger ones to participate in as well.  So this should be a fun and exciting day for all!

Explore Claremore!

The most important reason to come to the Summer Meeting is for the fellowship and spiritual nourishment, but there are some fun things to do in Claremore while you are here!  

Here are a few suggestions:

Will Rogers Memorial Museum WillRogers.com
Will Rogers Birthplace Ranch-just a short drive from Claremore
J.M. Davis Gun Museum TheGunMuseum.com
Totem Pole Park-a short drive down Route 66 RCHS1.org
the famous "Blue Whale"-in Catoosa across the highway from Spunky Creek Church of Christ
Downtown Claremore where there are antiques, antiques, and more antiques!!



An important note for those of you coming the first Sunday to the meeting.  The worship services on both Sundays will be at the Northeast Technology Center.   If you will be using a GPS or any kind of "device" for directions you MUST put in the zip code 74017 for it to get you to the correct location.  If you do not put in the zip code it takes you to a different town!  The address for NTC is:  1901 N. Hwy 88, Claremore, OK  74017.  Please help us spread the word for those who may not read the blog or Facebook.  

The "Spunky Creek kids" are excited about the meeting and ready to see everyone!!

Reminder:  June 1st is the deadline for dorm and meal reservations!

Speaker Change

IMPORTANT CHANGE!!

On Tuesday, July 1 for the morning worship service there will be a change of speaker.  We are sad to say Brother Stone Nix and his family are unable to be at the meeting.  So Brother Brent Darnell will be the speaker that morning.  We are excited to hear Brother Brent edify us on "Youth as Servants".

SUNDAY, JULY 6th

Well we have made it to the last day of the meeting.  We know this will be a hard day for all of us to say good-bye to all of our friends and loved ones.  

The Lord's Day morning service will be held at The Northeast Technology Center at 10:30.  Brother Garrett Siemens will be speaking on "Serving the Body of Christ".  The address for NTC is:  1901 N. Hwy. 88, Claremore, OK  74017.

After church we will head back over to RSU for lunch in the banquet room.  

Then the final service will be back at NTC at 3:00.  Brother Ron Dunavant will be speaking on "Serving a Lifetime & an Eternity".  

Everyone must be checked out of the dorms by 2:00 so it would be best to be checked out before morning services.  

REMINDER!!

We are getting close to the deadline for making dorm and meal reservations.  All reservations must be made by June 1st.  Please contact Jamie Newhart for all reservations.  jamie2-newhart@sbcglobal.net
