Exit Middle School: Convalescent Home Visit

On February 28, 2011, in Middle School - EXIT, Students, by Exit

The Exit Middle School will be visiting the Monterey Pines Convalescent Home this saturday, March 5th. We’ll be meeting at 9am at Shoreline and following Danny and Jenn over to the home for those who don’t know exactly were it’s located. However, if you do know where it’s at, the event doesn’t officially start until 9:30am, so feel free to meet us there. This visit will give us an opportunity to reach out to our elders in our community who may not experience visits that often. Our time spent there sends a clear message of God’s love and how much people care about them and it also gives our young people a chance to give back. So come and be part of something special . It’ll mean so much! Not to mention we’ll have a lot of fun spending time as a youth group as well!

Students will be picked up at Monterey Pines Convalescent Home (1501 Skyline Drive Monterey, CA 93940-4198)

Date: March 5th

Time: 9-11:30 am

November Update in Outreach!

On November 3, 2010, in Community Outreach, by CommunityOutreach

Hi Everyone!
Here is our update for the beginning of a new month! Be sure to check out the booth, and our calendar for more information!

WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO
A TREMENDOUS THANK-YOU to all the wonderful volunteers who offered their time, creativity, and efforts to make our Shoreline Halloween Family Festival a fantastic event. We had an amazing turn-out, and were able to introduce many people to our church family, show them around the building, and talk to them about what God is doing here! You all made this possible! We also already have some great pictures up on flickr; you can check them out here!

Thank you again! We couldn’t have done it without you!

URGENT NEED – Shoreline Food Pantry
(Thank you for responding, please continue to see what you can give!)

THANK YOU thank you to everyone who brought in food for the food pantry this last week. The result of your giving was AMAZING. It is possibly the first time we have ever had our shelves this full from donations ALONE; usually our Food Pantry coordinator, Bob Peters, has to go to the Monterey County Food Bank and get food from them. However, as times are tough for everyone, their shelves have been empty as well. So… our church family stepped it up, and the result was wonderful. However, within a couple of weeks, most of it will be gone again, and people will go hungry. So, to reiterate what Kevin said on Sunday, let us not forget how privileged we are. Before you leave for church, we encourage you to open up your own food cabinets, look inside, and realize how blessed we are to have them even somewhat filled! Then, if the Lord moves your heart to do so, grab a can or two, bring it to church with you, and drop it in our food pantry bin. All the while, remember that you are giving of what the Lord’s already graciously given you. Or even take the next step further, and next time you are out grocery shopping, pick up one extra of a few items you buy for your own family. If everyone in our church did this, only a couple Sundays a month, our pantry would be stocked! Let’s not forget how blessed we are, and pray about how we can give of what we have to bless others.

WEEKEND EVENTS
