Lakefest: Our Jamieson members were out there in full force at Lakefest, showing God's love to visitors and the community. We met hundreds of children at Thursday evening's kickoff with beanbag toss, candy, and giveaways. Saturday's free (like God's love) parking, free ice water, ice pops, and golf cart rides were a big hit.
Vacation Bible School
Vacation Bible School was hosted by Clarksville Baptist Church, June 29-July 3. Thanks to all of the volunteers who taught, supervised, fed and loved our children!
Kits for Conference: Many thanks to the UMW Circles and Congregation for the contributions that provided 50 School Kits! What a blessing these will be to children in impoverished or disaster-affected areas.
Mission Dollars: Each Sunday, we are asked to place $1.00 bills in the offering for a specific mission each Sunday.
Bible Study: Daytime Bible Study is held on Wednesdays at 1:00 pm, starting with a study of the Book of John. The only book necessary is your Bible.

The Jamieson Sunday School offers a full program of intentional faith development for all ages. In addition to classes for children and youth, the popular Adult Class meets each week for prayerful, challenging, and stimulating discussion. Several talented instructors rotate leadership.

A nursery is available downstairs from the sanctuary for infants and toddlers during 9:30 am service and Sunday School, staffed by our Nursery Director, Jan Turner, and an adult or youth volunteer.

Additional volunteers are needed for the church nursery. If you are interested, please see Laura Castle.
