Game Night at the Tanner's House

I wanted to update the Nov.10 activity. We are going to have a game night at our house. (If you have a good one-bring it!) My parents and other 1st priorities parents (please let me know if yours are willing) are going to keep the kids up at church, so we can actually play! The Stephens are helping us host this at our house. It will start at 5:00 and we will order pizza, so just bring money for that. Everything else will be provided. Hope everyone can come. Please sign up in class or add a comment to the blog to let us know. Thanks!

Baby Drew Is Here!

Andrew "Drew" James Parker was born yesterday, 10/23, around 1:05 pm at Baptist Hospital. He weighed 7 lbs, 8 ounces and is 19 inches long. Congraulations Andy, Rebekah and big brother Jackson!!

Opportunity to Help!

As was announced in class on Sunday, we will be taking up money during class on the next 2 Sundays (Oct. 14th & 21st) to help purchase gift cards to Super Suppers for David & Angela Burnett, Dana Byrd's brother & sister-in-law, who were recently blessed with baby #3! As most of you know, they also have twin baby girls who are not quiet 16 months old. So, they definitely have their hands full, living in Virginia with no family close. I know they will appreciate our generosity! If you are unable to be in class (since many of us teach) you can give your donations to Laura Karkau. What a great idea & a great way to show our love & support to fellow Christians!
