A Note from Pastor David:

Dear Avalonians,

We are scheduled to pack back packs with school supplies for underprivileged kids, and deliver them to Whispering Oak on August 7, 2007. We will meet at Ocoee Middle School at 9am and pack the 346 packs until we're done. We can use middle school age on up as volunteers. We also need pickup trucks and vans to transport the packs to Whispering Oak. We need a lot of volunteers to pull this off.

PLEASE RSVP to me ASAP and let me know if you are available to participate in this special ministry. Also, let me know if you have a truck or van for transporting the back packs to WOES.

more information on the tlc house ... and new information about s.t.a.r.s.!

2007-06-21T17:14:00.000-05:00

alrighty kids ... here's the information for saturday. no more complaining about being bored - they'll put you to work!

the address is 717 Virginia Drive, Orlando, 32803 and we're meeting there at 1:00 p.m. call me if you're interested in carpooling.

you can mapquest the address, but here's a quick summary:

I-4 to Ivanhoe, east (right) to Orange Ave., north (left) to Virginia, east (right) to 717

***

ALSO ... avalon is participating in s.t.a.r.s. (Supplies To Assist ouR Students). there are 380 students at whispering oak elementary school who are at 130% of the national poverty level. this status qualifies them for free lunches and other government assistance. however, there is no provision for school supplies. this is where avalon gets involved. we want to help provide school supplies for these children. it takes $12 per student to provide a backpack filled with all the supplies they need for the school year.

please bring your $12 (or $24, of $36, or $48 ... etc.) donation to church on sunday or youth group on monday.

upcoming dates and new information

2007-03-26T13:24:00.000-05:00

hello everyone! it's been a little bit since i've updated this blog, so i'm going to give you a lot of information - make sure you write down these dates and tell your friends about our upcoming events!

********

~april 9 (tentative) we will have pastor david's wife visit to discuss tlc women's center's annual walk for life

~april 28 is the walk for life. we will be participating as a church - it'll be fun :)

~april 8 and 15 at 3:00 p.m. will be two meetings with the HELPERS to plan our thrift store fashion show

~april 21 will be the fashion show! mark your calendars and invite your friends!

********

snacks: if you cannot bring snacks on your day, PLEASE call me and let me know. we have hungry kids coming from sports practice and i'd like to have something there each week :)

here is the upcoming snack schedule:

march 26: taylor, ashley and amy oldham

april 9: kim, liz and hannah adams

april 16: sara and brianna bishop

april 23: jason belzer and nate moreno

starting april 2, we will resume our weekly memory verses. HOWEVER, there will be a new twist. if you memorize all the verses each month, and recite them on the last monday of the month, you will get a special prize from the *big* prize bag! there are cds, games, etc. so if you forget one week, you still have a chance at the end to be rewarded for your memorization :)

********

i think that's all the news for now. see you tonight! remember to invite your friends, give suggestions, and show up for events. this will help build up a strong youth group at avalon!

snack attack

2007-03-10T01:05:00.000-05:00

reminder: due to the adams' absence at youth last week, jason belzer provided us with snacks (thanks j!) ... so the adams will bring snack *this* monday, the bishops the following monday, then the oldhams and finally the netzorgs.

thank you to everyone for your cooperation!

ALSO ... i need good dates from everyone to put on the thrift store fashion show!

*p*l*e*a*s*e* give me dates that are good ... and dates that are not good ... so that i can plan it to have the maximum turnout! it's gonna be a blast!

memory verse

MEMORY VERSE:

Colossians 3:23-24:

knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance.

It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.

T: Total Depravity
U: Unconditional Election
L: Limited Atonement
I: Irresistible Grace
P: Perseverance of the Saints <--- SECURITY!!!!

Also, I am in the process of finding a date with Golden Pond - it will be sometime in March, and probably on a Saturday - so please email me with any dates you're not available (sports, spring break, etc.). We will do music (piano, guitar, singing) and maybe a little skit or two, but mostly we will just hang out and talk to the residents.

We have started announcing our youth group meetings in the paper, so please remember to come on Mondays at 6:30! Bring your friends and let's have a huge turnout :)

memory verse

2007-01-22T00:38:00.000-05:00

i apologize for not getting this out sooner! i know i said it verbally, but this week we are finishing up psalm 1 for our memory verse. you should be ready to say the whole thing:

"How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff which the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish."

see you all monday night at 6:30 p.m.! it is the oldham's turn to bring a snack. please remember to have it pre-packaged (from the store) or we can't bring it in. amy, if you still want to bake, i will gladly take home the goodies for myself - you're an awesome baker!

for those of you interested in possibly doing a skit each week or starting a mini avalon player's club, please let me know. it might be something we'd like to get going in the future :)

mid-winter

2007-01-14T23:02:00.000-05:00

attention all you kids (and volunteers) going to mid-winter:

if you are interested in playing paintball or skating at the skate park at the word of life center (where mid-winter will be), PLEASE MAKE SURE you fill out the forms i sent out in an email and return them to me before we leave. if you're not sure, you might want to still fill them out just in case :)

if you or your parents have any questions, please feel free to call or email me.

i'll leave you with a few more lock-out photos.

see you tomorrow night at the stoneybrook west country club!

prayer requests and memory verses

2007-01-11T15:19:00.000-05:00

hello all! our first meeting at stoneybrook west country club went very well. the space in which to run around and play crazy games and hang out is perfect for us! please remember if it is your turn to bring snacks, everything must be in a pre-packaged form (nothing homemade). this week it's the NETZORGS' turn to bring snack, and the following monday will be the OLDHAMS' turn.

*

this week's prayer requests:

jason: pray for his sister's decisions regarding staying out late and taking care of her kids

hannah: pray for an unspoken prayer about one of her friends; report cards; a friend at school whose cousin has stomach cancer and just had a baby

sara: pray for her brother and sister - steph and josh - returning to college; lung transplant for eric; her dad traveling to oklahoma for schooling to become a supervisor at his workplace

becky: pray for help with grades

liz: pray for her lacrosse training and for patience in learning the new sport

as for our bible memorization, we are continuing in psalm 1. you will need to say the previous two verses from last week, psalm 1:1-2, and add this week's, psalm 1:3-4:

He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff which the wind drives away.

there will be more lock-out photos in the future, so check back! click on the photo for an extra-large helping :)

hey guys!

this blog is going to be your connection to security and all its goings-on. please make sure you are checking this page frequently, even daily, for updates and information that are important. it will have dates, locations, times and deadlines for all of our upcoming events. speaking of which, here are some right now:

lock-out on avalon hill december 22, 2006 at 4:00pm. for directions, please see www.avalonpca.org. be sure to wear clothes to get dirty in and bring clothes to sleep in, a flashlight, a bible, pen/paper (notebook or notepad), a sleeping bag and pillow, a tent (you can talk to your friends about sharing!), junk food (for those midnight snacks) and remember to be well-rested! we will be up all night :) this is a great event for bringing friends!

middle-school mid-winter 2007 january 26-28, 2007. forms are due to me no later than tomorrow. if you would like to go and you miss the deadline, the price will go up a bit but you can still go - so see me for the forms and all the necessary paperwork - we'd love to have you! tenth avenue north (an amazing praise band) will be performing and dan shipes, the high school youth pastor at seven rivers presbyterian, will be the guest speaker. kim and liz, you're all set to go, right????

golden pond communities visit had such an amazing response, i'd like to make it a monthly or every other month trip. the residents would love to see us, and i'm sure we'd love to entertain them with guitar, piano and songs. don't you already miss bill? anyway, please comment on this post with your thoughts, ideas or suggestions about upcoming golden pond events.

nacho libre party december 13, 2006 (during normal youth group hours). the location will either be at the salvo's home or the netzorg's home - details on that to follow. be sure to bring a nacho libre-themed snack to share (if you haven't seen the movie, use your imagination!). this is another red flag for friend invitations!

mark your calendars, and either comment here or email me with any questions (dayna@avalonpca.org). you can also feel free to call my cell (407) 496-4636 and please, if i don't answer, LEAVE A MESSAGE. my service is quite unreliable out here. i will get back to you as soon as i can!

kim's campout

2006-12-05T00:31:00.000-05:00

kim had a campout on her property two weekends ago. since i've been out of town, this is the first chance i've had to post some (hilarious) photos. for some reason everything loaded backwards, so the story goes from finish to start.

brooke, you should send me the ones from your camera :)

first post

2006-12-04T23:49:00.000-05:00

since this is the first post, i figured i ought to entitle it "first post." there will be other posts with (hopefully) more creative names in the future. we'll see.

this blog is to inform you of the following:

upcoming events
deadlines
prayer requests
memory verses
photos
trips
and much, much more ...!

please feel free to post a comment about anything you read on here, any questions you may have, any upcoming sporting events or if you just want to say hey to everyone :) also, if you have something private to discuss or want to meet up for lunch or a smoothie, please email me at dayna@avalonpca.org.
