How do I spread the word?

Important events and ministry is always happening around Garnett. For example, this Saturday, Oct 27 is Angel Food distribution. It's also the second to last Saturday for building the Habitat House with Cat Darwin and her daughter over in West Tulsa. Warren Barfield is coming to Garnett Monday, October 29.

If you are involved in these events and want to get the word out, how do you do it?
Here are some steps:

1. You must own the responsibility -- that's the first step. Do what it takes to get the word out by word of mouth, phone calls, flyers, emails.

2. Send an email to Garnettinfo@gmail.com
with the exact wording of your announcement and when you'd like for it to go out.

3. For a possible spoken announcement about an event, email Greg Taylor, gtaylor@garnettchurch.org and make your request and deadline for a Sunday announcement is Thursday 4 pm.

4. If you want to put something on the Garnettchurch.org web site, you can also email Garnettinfo@gmail.com and make a note that you'd like for it to go on web site.

Habitat Saturday, October 13

Saturday morning, October 13, 8 am is our next Habitat build time.

We're building the house with a woman named Catherine Darwin, who is buying the house and has done 450 hours of community service. We are not only partnering with about eight other churches but also with Habitat and with Catherine. Catherine has a great outlook on life and is a great joy to be around. Look for her at the build times.

Can you come? If so, please email Charlene Towsley krtowsley@yahoo.com and let her know so we can know if we have enough. We need about 10 to work.

ADDRESS & DIRECTIONS
3707 W. 54th St. South (South Haven neighborhood)….take I-44 west of the Arkansas, take the 33rd W. Ave exit and go south. Just after going south under the interstate, turn right/west on the service road and go to S. 37th W. Ave and turn left/south. This will take you to W. 54th and the site is on the south side.
