<p align="center"><strong><em>SOUL LIFE ADULT STUDY starting September 15 on WHEE Weds.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Join David Reeves and Sherrie Schork in a seven-week study of classic spiritual practices of Jesus and the church through SOUL LIFE. A study centered upon the life God desire’s to give us. It is the life that Jesus described in <a href="http://biblegateway.com/bible?version=31&amp;passage=John+10%3A10" class="bibleref" title="NIV John 10:10">John 10:10</a> when he said “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” God desires to give each of us this full, abundant life of peace, joy and balance. He gives us this life as we open ourselves to His work in our lives through “soul practices.”  By searching the Biblical practices that have guided the lives of faith filled disciples throughout the centuries we too can begin to move toward a richer spiritual life.<em></em></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>Our first meeting will include choosing a table group to join. Our table hosts are Gene and Betty Tweedy, Melissa and Tom Johnson, Susan Fouts, and Kathy Wooten. They will help members around each table get to know each other better and join in “table discussions” around the lesson each night. Participants will also be given a SOUL LIFE Journal to help members incorporate six “Soul Practices” into their lives. </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>Come and be part of the discussion of how God can transform our lives through soul practices as we discover SOUL LIFE together. </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The garden, which was planted at Full Spectrum Farm on IMPACT Sat., is ready to be harvested. Harvesters are needed for the next several weeks.  If you can spare a few hours, please contact Julie Ogletree 631-5530.  All ages are welcome to participate. </p>
<p>The produce is being grown for the Community Table.  What the Community Table cannot use, the excess is going to local restaurants.  Recently volunteers harvested green peppers, corn, tomatoes, Italian zucchini, peas, beans and butternut squash.  Harvestors can make donations for produce they can use. Check out the pictures below.  Volunteers are shelling black eye peas. </p>
