We are meeting at Pizza Hut for dinner on Thursday night. We are meeting at the one on 116th and Allisonville Road. If you can bring $ 5 to help cover the cost of pizza and drinks that would be great. We need to be off campus this week due to the Great Banquet and Third Phase did not work out so we need an alternative plan and food and fellowship sounds great --- it will also provide a time for unity (one of our churches goals). Hope to see you there.

March 3rd and 17th Roots Students will be volunteering at Third Phase in Noblesville. Third Phase is Hamilton County’s largest shelter, food and clothing pantry. We will be working in the store sorting clothes, toys and games. Parents and siblings are welcome to join us.

We will meet at Third Phase at 6:30pm. Students should be picked up at 8:00pm. Third Phase is located at 15755 Allisonville Road in Noblesville (773-5100).

Last month, we served 130 individuals. Our event is now held in a garage. We do not go out to them, they now come to us. However, many of them do live under the bridges of Indianapolis.

We use 252 Curriculum for our Thursday Night Roots ministry. This month, we are taking a look at KINDNESS. Kindness is showing others they are valuable by how you treat them.

Please take 9 minutes out of your day and watch the video. The video will give you the highlights of what we will learn this month.



Where have you had kindness shown to you ?

When was a time that you or the family have shown kindness to someone else ?

This past weekend, we took 10 students to SuperStart. We joined up with 2,000 other students and had a great time of worship and fellowship. The theme for the week was Joshua 1:9

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”

We also learned 4 key words: know, grow, go and show. Below is a small sample of pictures from the weekend.
