MINISTRY OPPORTUNITY

From Claudia Gay:

I recently received this e-mail.

“My son who is 16 needs a tutor. Would the church have someone who could help him? I would like for him to have a Christian influence. His areas of difficulty are Algebra and English.”

This is a single mom who lives in Bluffton who has limited funds but could provide dinner. It would be after school hours.

Please call or e-mail Claudia if you are interested.

SKATEFEST 2013

From Charles Cox:

I know this is early, however, the Savannah Civic Center actually reached out to us because they’ve narrowed the window for “group” ice skating this year and they wanted to offer us a slot.
So we’ve been plugged in for:
DEC 20, 2013 from 12:30 to 2:00
COST:  $5.00 per skater, observers are free but I still need a tally of everyone in your group.
DEADLINE:  December 11 for payment.
WHO:  CBCCA, family, friends, and fellow homeschoolers
Please send email to:  coxfamsc@gmail.com and indicate how many skaters and non-skaters that you have. Checks can be mailed to:  110 shell point rec. park, beaufort, SC 29906. Please call 843-476-6868 if you have any more questions.

NOTE:  They still have their regular schedule for “public” ice skating;  only the group sessions were reduced this year.
