Beach Bash at South Padre Island 
July 31 to August 3!
Beach Bash is a gathering of Central Texas churches for four days of worship, devotions, fellowship, games, and fun on the beaches of South Padre Island.  This event features top-notch speakers (area DCE's and Pastors), an assembled worship band from the area that engages youth in worship, and focused devotional time that connects the youth in Scripture and prayer. 
          The dates of the event are July 31st - August 3rd.   The total cost of the trip is about $300 per youth ($200 out of pocket and fundraise $100) plus meal money for the drive.  Information regarding specific fundraisers will be provided in the future and we expect each participant to contribute their time and talents towards these efforts.  We are asking for a $100 deposit by June 4th, along with the completed registration form and the remaining $100 will be due in July. 
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the trip and you can email me at mikewhite1212@yahoo.com or call me any time at 512.699.5564 (cell).  Friends are welcome to join us and we hope that your youth can join us this summer!

Koinonia Kore Values

EVANGELISM

We, the "Youth" are not the future of the Church, we are an active part of the Church now!  We want to learn how to share Jesus with others who don't yet know or follow Him.

FELLOWSHIP

We want to tear down the walls that separate groups of people.  In God's family we are all the same.  Where there is no fear of rejection we can learn how to appreciate the differences of others. We want our relationship with God to shine through us in our everyday relationships.  We want to be led by the Holy Spirit to be able to get along with our family, friends, and those who love us and those who don't.

MINISTRY

We believe that every one is made in a special way and has unique gifts that they alone can offer in service to God.

DISCIPLESHIP

We want to grow in our knowledge of a vast God through the study of His Word so we may better know, worship and serve Him. We want to learn how to have spiritual discipline in our daily lives as a result of our knowledge and relationship with our God.  We want to serve others like Jesus did.  We want our service to be our desire and not our duty.

WORSHIP

We love worshiping the Lord with one another.  We want our worship to please God and show others that our beliefs are REAL!

 

FILLED with God, 
FULLY God's,
with God having 
FULL priority in our lives!

Help Koinonia Raise Money for their Activites throughout the year!
A new and easy way to help Koinonia raise money is through a new Yahoo!-powered search engine and online shopping mall called GoodSearch.com.  The more people who use this site, the more money will go to fund Koinonia activities.  So, please spread the word to your friends and family.  The website is www.goodsearch.com  and has been written about in the New York Times, Oprah Magazine, CNN, ABC News and the Wall Street Journal.  When you are on the site, look for the "Select Your Charity" box and type in "Point of Grace Church (Pflugerville, TX)" and begin searching and shopping online.  It's that easy and the money raised will go into an account that will be used by Koinonia for retreats and other activities throughout the year!  If you want more info please contact Tricia Kelm at mooses4jesus@yahoo.com.  Thanks for your support of this virtual ministry at Point of Grace!
