Oak Ridge Student Leadership Team

We are starting an Oak Ridge Baptist Student Leadership Team.  Because that name is too long and obnoxious we will refer to it as ORBS Leadership Team.

This team will be doing some exciting things this summer.  Above you will see a tab that says Student Leadership Team info.  This will explain exactly what we are looking for. 

We encourage everyone to try out for a position on the leadership team, but please understand that not everyone will be selected for the team.

We will be holding interviews on Sunday June 5th from 6-7pm.

If you have questions ask Bro. Thom or Tiffany.

Mommy Dearest

Mother's Day is May 8th.  That means you have less than 2 weeks to pick out the perfect present for your mother.

Now you can do the same thing you do every year...  Have your dad buy the gift and have you sign the card taking the credit for the gift.  We all know that our mom's will like anything that we give them, but that doesn't mean we forget about them!

On Saturday May 7th at 10am I will be taking the church van to multiple places for Mother's Day shopping.  If you would like to be a wonderful son or daughter and you haven't gotten a gift yet, this will be an excellent opportunity for you!

Our mother's do so much for you, that you need to give your mom something more than a hug for Mother's Day!

You will have to bring your own money for this.  We will ONLY be providing transportation.  You will need money for food and the present.  We will be eating at the food court.

We will ONLY be shopping for Mother's Day gifts.  We will not be making any "detours" to play lasertag or get ice cream.  This is a day where you will be on an important mission to find the perfect gift!

So... are you going to be a good son and daughter?
