Keep Tampa Clean
We are helping the USF Wesley Foundation with a special project. They will be giving students quarters to help them do their laundry. Here's your part in the project. Bring a couple of quarters to 929 on Sunday and put them in the offering bucket in the back of the chapel. For the next couple of weeks we will be creating a pile of quarters to bring to USF.

Rummage Sale!
Hey Guys,
We need your stuff... old stuff... clothes, shoes, toys, games, electronics... just about anything for our annual Student Ministry Rummage Sale. We will begin collecting items at the church for our October 31st sale very soon.
All the funds raised will be divided among the students who serve on the team to set up, tear down and maintain the sale while it us running. You earn money for your summer mission trips and camps, people in the community get affordable items they need and the Salvation Army gets everything that's left to use as part of their ministry. That's a win, win, win as far as I'm concerned.
The Full Details are HERE.

Sunday October 18th we will be hitting the streets for the Great Pumpkin Chase of 2009. (YES, THE DATE CHANGED) From 5 - 8 p.m. students and leaders will be cracking clues, solving codes, riddling riddles and using all the powers of intellect at their disposal in order to capture the fleeting moment of glory when they raise the cup of victory.
Wow, that seems a bit intense. It's actually a lot of fun and the competition between teams is just the start of it all.
We are meeting in the Chapel at 5 p.m. If you have a new member of your team, they will need a copy of the permission form. You can download it here.
Here's the flyer to hand out to friends you are recruiting for your team!
Rock the Universe Again
Last night was great. The amazing part was we stayed dry for most of the night. A few sprinkles here and there but great even with that.
We are off to a worship service at Universal this morning. After that we hop on the bus and head home. Just a brief stop on the way for brunch.
We will see you at church this afternoon!
