Mother’s Day and Father’s Day celebrations were great! All moms and dads received special attention on their special day. Moms were treated to a gift bag filled with all kinds of goodies and a special meal with guest speakers, Gene and Mona Summers, and our dads received special gifts compliments of Marty’s Landing. (Thanks, Marty!) But, because they are such special people, we attempt to do special things with them during the entire year. In fact, our men are welcoming other men from this area to be a part of a mens’ outing on Friday, June 20. Men are welcome to spend the night in the Retreat Center and stay for a late breakfast on Saturday at 10:00 a.m. The men are also planning to go to our Smiley Farm for a retreat on July 10-12. Thank you, David, for working hard at scheduling fun events for our men!
Moms are not being left out! On Saturday, June 21, all area ladies are invited to the parsonage to enjoy a Ladies’ breakfast and time of devotion. This event will begin at 9:30 a.m. Another breakfast is also scheduled for July 25 at 9:30 a.m. Thank you, Kelly, for working hard at helping us shower our ladies with love!
Captain Robert, known as the Sea Academy instructor, is leading Disciple’s Retreat in the Retreat Center on Saturday and Sunday, June 28 and 29. This will be a “Learn How-To” retreat, which is titled, “Fishing For Jesus”! This retreat will begin at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday and will conclude with the Morning Service at the Chapel. Information can be received by calling the Chapel or Captain Robert at 361/815-3010. There will be no charge for this special event.
Pastor Joane is leading a unique Bible Study, titled, “Breaking Free”, each Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. The classes are based upon a teaching by Beth Moore. Everyone is welcomed to come and take part in this study which is held at the parsonage.
Kids are special at the Chapel. Each Friday evening (except the first Friday of each month) all area kids are welcomed to come to the Chapel and participate in Friday Night Youth. There is always a lot of fun, food, and fellowship. Friday Night Youth with Julian, Alissa, and Zach begins at 7:00 p.m. and the kids are picked up by 10:00 p.m. We are also planning a “Kids’ Crusade” in September. Edith has joined our teaching team on Sundays and is leading our children in singing that is presented to the congregation on special occasions. Edith and John are working hard at providing memorable times for all kids – come join us!
Fisherman’s Chapel is reaching out to people from all walks of life in our community and asking them to join us as we travel toward Heaven! We are an interdenominational congregation, which simply means everyone is welcomed. You will always find a warm welcome at the Chapel, and are urged to, “Come, grow with us”!
