Here We Go Again!! Summer Meeting 2015



STRONG ROOTS MAKE STRONG HEARTS



Colossians 2:6-8
"As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:  
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.  Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ."



The Spunky Creek Church of Christ will be hosting the 2015 SUMMER MEETING and is looking forward to seeing all of you again.  The theme and goal of this meeting will be to encourage and strengthen each other through a renewed study of some of the core beliefs of God's Word, thus equipping each other to go into our communities with the "Light of God" displayed in our hearts and lives.

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…….

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.
