Do you know a boy in 1st – 5th
grade that likes to have
FUN & ADVENTURE?
Cub Scouting provides boys with more than just FUN –
it gives them an opportunity for character development, personal achievement
and spiritual growth.
We have been given an opportunity to explore the possibility of starting a Cub Scout pack here at Western Heights. Besides providing a family based program, it will also give us an opportunity for outreach within our community.
There will be an informational meeting for parents on Sunday, August 24 at 4:30 in Room 214. If you are already involved in Scouting in another Unit, please come and share your insights.
There will be a new class beginning Wednesday night, Sept. 3 in Room 214. Dick Freeman will be teaching a class on Love and Respect. Come and learn about a truth hidden in plain sight for 2000 years that can make a difference in every marriage. Singles are welcome, as well as married couples.

Thank you very much for all of the prayers and cards during my many, many hospital stays over the last year. I have one more surgery scheduled toward the end of October that will hopefully finish fixing all of my issues. I really have enjoyed reading all of the cards and very much appreciated them. Please continue to keep me in your prayers. In Him, Jason Athey
