HELP NEEDED—If you can greet someone with a smile and lend a hand to graciously open a door or the car door for someone then YOU ARE NEEDED! We are looking for a few gentlemen to be an outside valet parker/greeter. You would only have to do this once a month on a rotating basis.

PANTRY NEEDS—We have many people that help with this on a regular basis. A big thank you to those who recently stepped in to fill up an almost empty pantry. We are still in need of a few items: jelly, soup, cereal, laundry detergent, dish washing detergent, household cleaners, plastic spoons, size 3 & 4 diapers. Thank you to all that make this ministry possible!

YOUNG AT HEART– We are planning another fun night for those 60 and older! We will serve a meal at 6PM followed by games of Dominoes, Forty Two, and Chicken Foot. You can also just come to visit and hang out! But BEWARE! There is a rumor we have some serious Chicken Foot Ladies! Please sign up at the Welcome Center if you plan to come so we can have a head count for food preparation.

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS—New Wednesday night classes will start June 1st. See calendars posted on doors and at the Welcome Center. Plan to attend!

WEDNESDAY NIGHT SIMPLE SUPPERS– will look slightly different throughout the summer. Our cooking teams are taking a break! Bring your own dinner and fellowship together before class.

FOR OUR GRADUATES: Containers will be in the foyer for the next three Sundays if you would like to give our seniors a graduation gift.

Our 2016 Graduates are: Mackenzie Beckmon, Averie Campbell, Ross Denman, Asia Garvin, Jacob Jones, Alissa Nutt and Neil Nutt.

Love you  -  MEAN IT!!!

Congratulations. . .

North Lamar High School senior Mackenzie Beckmon has been named Academic All-American for the National Speech and Debate Association.

“Requirements for this award are strenuous,” said Speech and Debate coach Kristi Hodgkiss.

Recipients of the award must have a 3.7 GPA (on a 4.0 scale), score a 27 or higher on the ACT or a 2000 or higher on the SAT, and have a degree of superior distinction in the NSDA (which requires 750 points).

“Winning a debate round is worth six points, so it takes a while to get there (750 points),” said Hodgkiss.  “Mackenzie holds a degree of premier distinction, with 1,021 points, which is especially impressive given that she did not start debate until she was a sophomore.”

Mackenzie is only the fourth student in North Lamar’s history to receive this prestigious award.  While at NLHS, Mackenzie has qualified for region three times in UIL.  She qualified for the Texas Forensics Association State Tournament this year, and has qualified for the National Speech and Debate Tournament twice.
