Camp Loucon is coming right up! This is a wonderful opportunity for kids to have fun and learn about God at a camp that is fairly close to home. This camp is in Leitchfield, KY and offers campers lots of outdoor activities and a week of worship and memory making. Approximately 10 of our kids from Petrie have expressed that they would like to attend this year. The cost is: $219 for 2nd – 4th grade; $369 for 5th-12th grade. The church pays for half of the cost for each child to attend. We are looking for sponsors to pay the remaining half (or a portion of it) for each of the children to go. This would be: $110 for 2nd – 4th grade; $185 for 5th-12th grade. However, any little bit would help. If you would like to donate, please contact Emily Myers or Vicki Ross. We hope to have many Happy Campers this year!!

Youth Presentation and Games for Noel
Noel is the young boy the youth are sponsoring through Compassion International. Noel will be 8 years old on February 14. We want to invite you to celebrate his birthday with us. We will have food, bible bingo, a presentation about Noel and an opportunity for you to fellowship with our youth group. You will also have an opportunity to bless Noel with a financial donation toward his birthday gift and monthly sponsorship. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to fellowship with our youth group and contribute to the escape from poverty for Noel.
If you plan to attend and have not already signed up, please contact the church office today or Thursday via email or phone (270-265-2298)
