TRUNK AND TREAT- FLOOD STYLE!
Trunk or Treat @ The Garden has become a flood favorite. Students head out to decorate cars and come dressed in costumes in order to pass out candy to the children living in this shelter.
The Chattahoochee chapter put together 150 goody bags at their chapter meeting last week to be handed out during the Trunk or Treat. Students from South Forsyth HS, Legacy Academy, Milton HS, and Taylor Road MS passed out the bags and then got to visit with the children and their mothers afterwards for a great time of fellowship.
The Holidays are a great way for students and families to get out serving in the community. Over the next 2 months, flood will offer projects serving Operation Christmas Child, ACT Together Ministries, Safehouse Outreach, 7 Bridges, Chestnut Ridge Nursing Home, and STREET REACH. Check out the SERVE NOW calendar on the website to start serving TODAY!
A Night Of Prayer- August 8th
A new approach to flood’s prayer strategy is to quarterly sponsor a night of prayer for students who serve and those that we serve in the community. On August 8th from 7:00-8:00 pm, flood will host the first “A Night of Prayer.” Students are invited to come for an evening of group prayer as well as individual prayer. Adult prayer leaders who have a heart for today’s students will be available for any student to receive prayer. We will offer these prayer events once a quarter as part of our Prayer Strategy. “We are so excited about this event because we know the challenges students are facing today. There is so much against them in today’s world and through prayer, we can be a part of encouraging and lifting them up,” Kimberly Scales, Executive Director. The event will be held at 3760 Hebden Bridge Lane, Alpharetta, GA. No registration is needed but students can get details at http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=173989709334462.
Caitlin and Victoria
“I first met Caitlin at a day under the bridges for 7 Bridges to Recovery and we discovered that we had a common interest in serving the homeless. As we started serving together with projects like Safehouse and 7 Bridges, we developed a friendship because of our passion for the homeless.” -Victoria, Alpharetta High School [...]
