FROGS

The FROGS (Families Relying On God and Socializing for families with children up to five years old) are so happy that it is a Leap Year. This is the year we plan to make great leaps forward. We now have a Yahoo group and are looking to expanding our lily pad. If you are not on our Yahoo group, you will be receiving a message soon. We hope that you will take advantage of this. This is a great tool for us to stay in-touch with each other and share news. A quarterly newsletter has already gone out. Copies of it are available at church. The newsletter contains birth announcements, birthdays, prayer list, and upcoming events.

On February 28 from 3 to 6 p.m., FROGS will be having a BBQ Play-date – Rain or shine! The play-date will take place at the home of Scott and Becky Sue Becker. To RSVP or for more information, contact the Beckers. Bring your own beverage.

For more information please contact Melissa Benedict via frogs@christthelordlutheran.org .


 CTL Dinner Club

Do you enjoy: 

Meeting new people?
Sharing a meal with friends?
Good food and good conversation?

If you answered, “YES” to any or all of those questions, CTL Dinner Club may be for you! Once a month, we gather in small groups (8 to 12 people) to share a meal and get to know each other. The host/hostesses sets the menu and each guest brings an item to accompany the meal (side dish, dessert, beverage). Or sometimes a group will meet at a restaurant or a park. This is open to singles, couples, families, everyone!

We are taking a break for the holidays, but watch the Sunday bulletins and monthly newsletters for gatherings starting in February.

If you would like to join us, please contact Gayle Summerville via dinnerclub@christthelordlutheran.org or call the Church office - 770-963-4499

 Babysitting can be provided for a small fee.


Golden and Silver Fellowship

There are NO boring Senior citizens at Christ the Lord -- this group knows how to have a good time!  Meeting once a month, they enjoy exciting outings and each other.  This picture is from their Christmas celebration during which they decorate the church and enjoy a dinner together - an activity they enjoy every year.  And we all get to enjoy the beautifully decorated church.

January 2010 Event:  The Golden and Silver Fellowship will meet on Saturday, January 16, at 7 p.m. in the church’s fellowship hall for Bingo. Bring a white elephant gift and a snack to share. Contact Betty Dahler or Betty Cook for more information on the group or to RSVP.

This group is for people age 50 or better that enjoy dining out, playing games at church, potlucks, plays, and trips to area attractions.

Contact Jeannie at the church office for more information at 770-963-4499.

We welcome members, visitors, and friends to all our events!  Contact Jeannie Ostergaard at  jo@christthelordlutheran.org for more information or to RSVP.-

Craft Group

Cross stitch, needlework, stained glass, knitting, scrapbooking, quilting, beading, and much more – these are a few of the crafts currently being worked on in Craft Club.

Our craft group meets regularly, allowing members to enjoy conversation, share ideas and work on your craft.  Members enjoy quilting, cross-stitch, crochet, or bring your own favorite craft to work on and share.  We are also working on a hand stitched kneeler to use during Advent and Lenten services. 

Most months we meet on the first and third Wednesday from 7 to 9 p.m. in classroom 6. During February, we will meet on the 3rd and 17th.  Bring your current project or come learn something new with a fun group of people. Everyone is welcome.

For more information, please contact Jenny Simpson at craft@christthelordlutheran.org.  We'd love to have you join us.


Paint and Palette Club

Bobby Yeargin is giving free, informal instruction on how to draw and/or paint. Newcomers are welcome to join us at any time. All beginner supplies will be provided (pencil, eraser and sketch paper).

We now meet on the second and fourth Saturday of each month, in the fellowship hall from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. In February, we will meet on the 13th and 2th.

February Event:  Ladies -- This is an invitation to join other ladies of the congregation for an evening out on Tuesday, February 2, at 6:30 p.m. Join us at MiMi’s Café, 1818 Mall of Georgia Blvd. near the Mall of Georgia. RSVP to Jenn Bowers.

Men’s Night Out - The Men of the congregation gather occasionally for a fun night out.  Watch the bulletin and this site for the next gathering.  If you would like more information, contact Richard Burgess via men@christthelordlutheran.org

What fun to enjoy food and fellowship with friends outside of church! We learn a lot about each other when we get together and maybe more than we should, but that’s what makes it so fun. It’s a God thing; we are forgiven. Maybe more guys can make it the next time we get out! 


CTL Camping Group --Watch the church bulletin and this website for information on future trips.  Please contact Robin Eggleston for more information via email: camping@christthelordlutheran.org.


If you are looking for your place, want to connect with others at Christ the Lord and might want to start a new group, contact Kelli, the chair of Fellowship, via fellowship@christthelordlutheran.org.
