Miniature Golf/Pizza Outing

Last Sunday night, 18 youth/adults from the church went miniature golfing in Newburgh, followed by a lot of pizza and video games at Pizza Chef. We all had a great time of fun and fellowship.

Anthony proved he still is the man when it comes to Galaga. Ask his children - they were impressed!

Mother's Day Service

Our youth ran the entire service on Mother's Day and did a wonderful job. Here's a few highlights from the service.

Cheryl's class (pre-k and kindergarten) sang a song about our risen Jesus.



Robyn's class sang a medley of songs including Jesus Loves the Little Children and Jesus Loves Me. Lizzie served as a special guest vocalist :)



Several of the youth read Mother's Day poems. Here is William reading one.



We sang a few songs, all lead by our youth. This is The Heart of Worship led by Alyssa, Shelby, Karyssa and Adrienne.

Adult Sunday School Lesson - May 24, 2009

We will be discussing the beginning's of Absalom's plans to attack David.



Sunday school classes meet in the education wing at 9 AM. We will be continuing classes throughout the summer.

If you would like to teach the kids during this time for one or more Sundays, please let Matt, Robyn or Anthony know. Summer is a great time for everyone to get involved in the education of our youth!

New Church Website

Our Young Adults Sunday School class has been hard at work on a new church website. It can be found by clicking below.

View New Church Website

So why do we have 2 church websites?

What you are viewing here is the "blog". This is more of a running stream of things going on at the church - pictures, videos, etc. It consists of short little posts and is updated on a frequent basis. Think of this as the day-to-day view of Hemenway.

The new church website contains more static information. It talks about our church, the service times and what to expect when coming to Hemenway to worship. This site will also include the current newsletter and possibly a calendar of events (depending on what direction our Young Adults take it).

Hemenway Men's Christian Outreach

The first meeting of the Hemenway Men's Christian Outreach took place at Robert's Stadium last week. As you can see, we all had a great time!! Stay tuned for more outings like this in the near future.

Here is a video of some of the action. Pay particular attention to Anthony's commentary when the music fades out about half way through the video.

Concert at Library

Yesterday, Alyssa and Karyssa were in several concerts around town. First they went to all the nursing homes in Boonville and performed, then ended up at the library for one last big performance. They performed a lot of good ole fashioned rockin' oldies, with lots of singing and dancing and did a great job!



I thought it was funny what Lizzie said when she saw the girls. She said "There's Karyssa... and there's another Karyssa!".

Hemenway Has a Published Author!!

Did you know Hemenway has a published author? Robyn has recently published her first book, entitled Singled Out in Center Field: Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend. You can see the book on Amazon.com, or better yet, stop Robyn at church on Sunday and pick up an autographed copy!

Congratulations Robyn on getting published!!

Youth Sports

If you haven't had an opportunity to see our youth play soccer, don't miss your chance! Their season is winding down quickly. Clay, Josh and Tyler all play on the same soccer team (coached by Cody), and as you can see from the pictures, it can get muddy out there!

Loge vs. Oakdale Track Meet

The Loge vs. Oakdale rivalry lived on last Thursday in the form of a track meet. Several youth from our church were part of this.

Katelyn ran a great 800m race and shaved 12 seconds off her best time! Ian participated in boy's shotput and Shelby, Alyssa and Karyssa participated in girl's shotput.

William also got a chance to throw the shotput (he almost dropped it on his toe!).

Adult Sunday School Lesson - May 3, 2009

We will be discussing the first events that take place after Absalom takes control in Jerusalem.
