The goal for Noonday Church in 2010 is to ENGAGE. It is our desire as a Church to see every member engaging the local community with the love of Christ. Throughout the year we will focus on a different local ministry each month.  We will provide opportunities for church members to engage by praying for these ministries, giving to these ministries and/or going to serve with these ministries.
  

March - Atlanta Union Mission

In March our opportunity to engage our community with the love of Christ will be focused on helping the Atlanta Union Mission (AUM). Atlanta Union Mission is a Christian ministry that brings Christ’s healing power to any person in crisis through programs of rescue and recovery. You can visit their website at:

www.atlantaunionmission.org

Throughout the month we will be providing opportunities for you to engage with this ministry by:

PRAYING: Starting on Sunday the 14th you can pick up prayer cards at the AUM information table in the foyer. The cards will have prayer requests from ladies at the Mission’s rescue shelter. 

GIVING: There will be two opportunities to give to the Mission this month. First, throughout the month you can bring new or gently used Bibles to give to women at the shelter. Second the Mission’s opening a new thrift store in our area at the end of the month and we will be collecting donations for the store. An informational flyer on what to bring and where to drop it off is available at the informational table in the foyer.

GOING: We will be going to My Sister’s House (a ministry of the Atlanta Union Mission) twice this month to lead worship services for the ladies. All are welcome to come and minister. The services will be Monday, March 8th and Tuesday, March 30th. The group meets in front of the Student Center at 6:15pm, and the carpool will leave promptly at 6:30pm.

February - Noonday Baseball

 In the month of February we will focus our ministry efforts on engaging our community through sports. Noonday's Baseball program engages hundreds of families in our community through t-ball and coach pitch programs. Look for opportunities on how you can pray, give and or go by visiting the table in the foyer.

January: The HOPE Center

 http://www.hopectr.com/

The HOPE Center is a crisis pregnancy center that provides abortion alternatives, education, mentoring, birthing classes, counseling and much more.  During the month we will be joining The HOPE Center by participating in their Baby Bottle Boomerang program. 
  
Church members will be able to engage by:
 
Praying – Take a Baby Bottle Boomerang bottle from the display in the foyer of the sanctuary.  Use the bottle as a reminder to pray daily for The HOPE Center, its staff and its clients.
 
Giving – Once you have filled a bottle with coins, bills or a check, return it to the display in the foyer of the church by the end of the month.  All proceeds will go to support The HOPE Center and their programs.
 
Going – There are many volunteer opportunities.  For more information on how you can become involved in the ministry of The HOPE Center, call 770.924.0864.
