Annual Golf Outing & Building Fund online fundraiser
 Welcome to the first online "Fundraiser" for our Church.   This effort is being done in concert with our Annual Golf Outing & Building Fund event on October 6th, which is focused on maintaining our commitment to the Family Life Center.  The Family Life Center helps people build healthy relationships with God and with each other.  Our Church reaches out to the community in various ways throughout the year including; many Grosse Pointe North High School activities, St. Joan of Arc school & athletic functions, The Princeton Review, Extreme Teen Dances, Grosse Pointe Soccer Association, Sweet Beat Jazz Institute, Grosse Pointe Community Chorus, Wheelchair Floor Hockey, Red Cross Blood Drives, CROP Walk for hunger.  It is with this mission in mind that we ask you to support our MAJOR FUNDRAISING EVENT. We feel that in strengthening the support and by providing an opportunity and a safe location to play a game of basketball, perform in a musical or participate in an enrichment class or activity, together we can impact our community as a whole and help support our mission of "Go Make Disciples".
 
For more about the event and how easy it is to give, please go to the following webpage we've created ...

Tour of Egypt May 28 – June 10, 2009
TOUR OF EGYPT People have been asking, “Where are we going next year?”  Well our 14 day tour will take us to the spectacular sights of Egypt; including a Nile River Cruise, plus Mt. Sinai!  The dates are May 28 – June10, 2009; about six weeks earlier than we normally travel because of the warm climate.  Brochures should be available before the end of August; however, we are pleased to announce that in spite of the increasing costs of everything, and the declining dollar, this tour will be similar in cost to our 2007 tour of the Alps.  Make your plans now to see the Sphinx, the majestic Pyramids, the Valley of the Kings, King Tut’s Tomb, the world famous Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, the Nile River, and of course Biblical Mt. Sinai; just to name a few.
