13 Vineyard Happenings for Friday the 13th

Batesville Vineyard Family,

Here are 13 Vineyard Happenings for this Friday the 13th (you're not superstitious are you?):

1. Grub's Up Game Night for Adults - TOMORROW, March 14th @ 7pm. Come hang out, play games, and get to know each other. Bring along an appetizer or dessert to share. Sorry no childcare or youth at this event, but stay tuned for future family friendly events.

2. We plan to upgrade our lighting at BVCC next week. The cost comes to $150 per light. Please consider how you might contribute to the project. You can help by letting us know how many lights you would like to purchase and how you will be paying the pledge (one time or monthly payments, up to 12 months). You can participate by either filling out a pledge card on Sunday or online here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=2xaXg_2f8ECO71_2f978TQeXOg_3d_3d .

3. Due to next week's renovations, the following groups will be meeting at the Batesville Library instead of BVCC:

Koster Reset Group - Monday, March 16 @ 7pm

Pat's Reset Group - Tuesday, March 17 @ 9am

Prayer Group - Wednesday, March 18 @ 6:30pm

4. Reset All-Church Journey continues this Sunday. We are participating with about 50 other Cincinnati area churches for this series leading up to Easter. During this spiritual challenge we will investigate the life and teachings of Jesus. Whether you're just curious about Jesus, beginning to seek out answers, or you've followed him for decades, all you need to do is be open to resetting your assumptions, and discovering (or rediscovering) your own beliefs about the most influential person in history. As part of Reset we want everyone to participate in a Reset group. Consider inviting a friend to join you this Sunday!

5. Job Search Work Group Workshop - Saturday, March 21st from 9:00am-4:00pm. Contact Christopher Aune (812.933.5902) for details. Check out the website at www.jobsearchworkgroup.org.

6. Don't forget about Change-2-Change. Check it out at http://sites.google.com/site/change2changebvcc/. If you received a cup for this project, don't forget to bring your change to Connections on Sunday.

7. Youth Scavenger Hunt - Saturday, March 21st from 6:30-9:00pm. Meet at BVCC before running around town looking for items. Bring a friend and have a blast! Contact Jeremy for more info (812.363.4650).

8. Newcomers' Orientation Dinner - Sunday, March 29th @ 6:30. If you are new to the Vineyard and would like to learn more, get to know some other new faces, and have a great time, plan to attend this event.
