The Hot Summer Continues

Happy August everyone! It is amazing how quickly the month of July passed. It seems that we were just starting the month, full of all its activities, and now we're well into August.

Before we discuss our upcoming monthly activities, we had a wonderful night of FUN-draising at MCCPB Idol. Thanks to your generous donations, we raised $1,962 for the music fund. The evening's acts were wonderfully humorous and inspiring. Congratulations to our reigning MCCPB Idol 2009, Jeffrey McKee.

Now, let's discuss our current events.

This Saturday, August 15th at 7pm, our social committee will be hosting Tacky Tourist Bingo and Ice Cream Social. Put on your Hawaiian shirts, your white socks and sandals, or anything else that might make you the Tackiest Tourist! Also, we will provide the ice cream, and ask you to bring one of your favorite toppings to share with everyone. This will be a fun night that you don't want to miss.

Then at 8pm on Friday, August 21st, MCCPB is honored to welcome Jade Esteban Estrada with his one-man-show ICONS: The Lesbian and Gay History of the World, Vol. 3. You will be mesmorized as you watch Jade take on the roles of several LBGT historical figures. To learn more about Jade and this show, visit him on the web at www.getjaded.com. Also, this will be a freewill love offering performance, with all monies collected going to the performer!

On Friday, September 18th, we're going back in time to a 50's sock hop, with our next Dinner and a Movie. Get out your leather jackets, poodle skirts, and slick back your hair! At 6:30, dinner will be served diner-style, with Hamburgers and Root Beer Floats. Then, at 7:30, we're going to Rydell High as we sing along with the T-Birds and Pink Ladies of Grease! It will definitely be a "Summer Night" you'll want to "devote yourself to." Wop-bop-a-loo-bop; a-wop-bam-boom!

Continue to pray for our church and its leadership, and stay tuned to hear about our next step of the journey together.
