High School Leadership Trip
Are you a high school student looking for a way to cultivate your leadership gifts and have the experience of a lifetime? What if you could grow your leader- ship abilities and go white-water rafting all in the same weekend? Consider coming to the High School Leadership Trip from Friday, September 24th to Sunday, September 26th at Appalachian Bible College in Beckley, West Virginia. The cost is $175 and registration is now open online at www.farhills.org/hs. Contact Laura Thayer at laurat@farhills.org for more details.

Hammer & Nails
Hammer & Nails recently gathered at a member's house to trim a tree, clean the kitchen, hang curtains, paint the garage, move lumber, and other tasks. It was a blessing to all who were involved in the project. To view pictures from recent events online, go to fhcchammernnails.myphotoalbum.com. To get involved with the ministry, contact Tracy Hanning at solidrockincorporated@gmail.com.

Inviting All Women
How often have you needed a "sister" to come alongside you, perhaps in the simplest way, by holding your hand, just as Jesus holds us in His? Whatever our age or stage of life, we are all called to love one another and we all need sisters in Christ to walk beside us. Women need to encourage and pray for one another so we can become all that God desires us to be. If this sounds like something you'd like to experience, please see the insert about our upcoming Sisterhood opportunity.

MINISTRY OPPORTUNITIES

Date Nite
Far Hills reaches out to impact families affected by special needs on Friday, September 10th. Parents tell us over and over how much this ministry means to them. They share how hard it is to get time alone just to eat dinner and catch up, knowing that their special needs children and siblings are having fun and being cared for. Many helpers are needed to make this event a success. It would be really great if we could have enough volunteers to invite every family off the waiting list! If you can help with Friday the 10th, contact Lisa at lbrown@farhills.org.

Habitat For Humanity
Saturday, October 16th and Saturday, November 13th have been reserved for Far Hills to participate in building & rehabilitating homes through Habitat for Humanity of Dayton. To sign up, visit http://daytonhabitat.volunteerhub.com/. For more information, contact Steve Henrich at tps79a@earthlink.net.
