What More Could You Ask: Dinner and Love!!!
The Family and Friends Church School Class invites couples and singles in their twenties and thirties to join them on Saturday evening, September 8, for a shared dinner (meat and drinks provided; other dishes, pot luck) and then a study of The Five Languages of Love by Gary Chapman. The study will be led by Dr. Claire Wheeler, clinical psychologist and family counselor. Come join us and learn ways to be more loving in your important relationships. Eating will begin 6:00 pm at the home of Claire and Ed Wheeler, 10 Crows Nest Point; childcare will be available at the church nursery beginning at 5:30 pm. For more information call Ed or Claire at 925-1279.
More Details for Class Members
- Robin will be at church nursery for childcare at 5:30
- Bring covered dish if able, but don’t fail to come just because no time to cook
- Let Kriston Maynard ((Cell 657 3634; x_stitch_1yr@hotmail.com ) know if will leave children in nursery and how many. [Kristun, make sure that Robin knows to be there at 5:30]
- Directions to Wheeler’s at 10 Crows Nest Point:
If traveling south on Abercorn, turn left onto King George Boulevard (if traveling north, turn right). Immediately turn left into Forest Cove Community. As you approach the gate, you will find a pedestal on your left where you can call the Wheelers and they will “command” the gate to open. Proceed to first Stop Sign and turn right on Companion Way. Continue until you dead end and turn right on Cove Drive. Immediately turn right on Crows Nest; the Wheeler’s house is the only two story house on this little 6 house street.
If problems, call Wheelers at 925-1279.
