Good morning everyone, Apologies for not posting last week. After the MLK day games and revival I just decided to skip it until today. I do have some important things coming up, especially the Dinner & Show fundraiser on February 13th below. The meal fundraiser went really well. Jim & Glenda Chinners led the charge and I believe the students will be rewarded very well toward their Guatemala trips from the 170+ meals that were sold. Thank you to all that purchased a meal.

Good morning all, Be praying this week for Bro. Jack Bailey and the services that will take place next week. Also, parents get your students to each and every one of the services. I believe God has given Bro. Jack something that not only the adults need to hear, but also our students. To those that have asked, I still do not have a RA Basketball schedule. I receive emails about 3-5 days before the games.

Happy New Year everyone, I’m already starting out behind as I forgot that we have a basketball game in Biloxi tomorrow night with our Older and Younger Team. I’ll be contacting everyone this evening that plays and the information about it. School started today for our private school students and our public school students start tomorrow. Be praying for them as they start their 3rd quarters as well as some with new classes. We have some events coming up this month so check out the information below. I hope this email finds you well as this is our best mode of communication on getting detailed information to you. As always you can download The Foundation App at app.foundationflow.com to your smart phone or signup for text message updates for adult/leaders by texting FYMLEADERS to the number 68398.

Good morning, I hope you enjoyed the Christmas holiday and are enjoying the rest of the 2014 year as it wraps up. I know a lot of folks are on vacation this week so they may not read this or may read this later in the week so I’ll keep it short. No services this Wednesday, our Winter Woods Retreat has been cancelled, and only the 10:30am service along with Sunday School this upcoming Sunday. I hope that you all have a great next couple of days and I’m praying for a great 2015 for our student...

Good morning all, Our Christmas party went exceptionally well I think. It was the first time in a while that we had Levi and the band play but I still do not think the students responded well to the musical worship, even though they were Christmas songs. The photo booth was a hit thanks to Jack and Kerri Lastorka’s props box and Tina Wilkinson’s backdrop. The photos are on The Foundation Facebook page (facebook.com/thefoundationym). Thanks to everyone who helped with the food also as the students really liked it. Three days until Christmas, are you ready??? Basketball season is done for the rest of the 2014 year and will pickup on Saturday, January 3rd. One of my prayers is that I would have the opportunity to fill the league coordinator position for Mobile area teams one day. All of our teams are currently winless, with the exception of one tournament game for the Older team. I keep telling myself I’ve been through this before.
