Kids Summer Outreaches

This Summer we have an Awesome opportunity to reach out to the kids of Miami. H2O and Kids Inc are partnering together to impact and change the lives of people in their own communities by reaching out to their kids.

We are throwing 6 block parties this summer (June 26, July 10,17, 24, 31, and August 7), and we need your help. We need people to run the Cotton Candy, Snow Cone, and Popcorn machines, we need people to do face painting and balloon animals, we need people to go door to door to invite people and hand out fliers, and we need people to help set up and tear down.

During this block party we are inviting people to come and check out Sunset Chapel. Every kid that comes to Kids Inc on Sunday mornings will have an extra ticket placed in the drawing for a Nintendo Wii & the Sports resort package.

If you would like to participate in this Awesome opportunity or have any questions then please call the church office at 305.271.4094 and let us know.

WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

Danger! Your Life Will Be Changed

This morning, at the Sunday Experience, Pastor Russ talked about the most Dangerous place in Miami. He talked about how when Jesus spoke he was so dynamic that there was no telling what was going to happen, and that every time he spoke people wanted to kill him. At that same time people were completely infatuated with Him and wanted to follow him to see what He was going to do next. We have been challenged to be a Dangerous Church! That means that we are going to preach the truth, and step on top of peoples toes with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Come to Sunset Chapel on Sunday mornings, or H2O on Wednesday nights. You'll hear the True Gospel, and there is no telling what Jesus will do next at Sunset Chapel.

Come find out how to be part of a Dangerous Church, and see what Jesus is going to do next.

Weigh in #1

Weigh in #1
Its been 12 days since I officially started this new life style change! All I have done is cut out all the bread, rice, pasta, and sweets. I have 1 free meal per week where I can eat that kind of stuff. Out side that I have started walking every couple of days or so. So far I haven't felt hungry, but I have been craving the things that have made to cut.

Goals:
loose 10% of 254lbs (25.4lbs) in 12 to 13 weeks. End result is to be around 228 lbs.
The other goal is to get into a habit of working out for 40 to 60 minutes everyday.

Here are the results:
24 May 2010 — 254lbs; BMI 35.56; Belly 50+ in; waist 44 in
04 June 2010 — 240lbs; BMI 33.58; Belly 48.25 in; waist 44 in

I have lost 14lbs and 1.98 from BMI, and around 2 in from my belly. Even though I've lost weight I have not started to shrink my waist which is kind of a bummer. On a good note I have lost 5.5% of my beginning body weight. That leaves 4.5% / 12lbs left to go.

Encouragement
I know a lot of people who need to loose weight. Like me, they have all tried all sorts of diets. Once they lost the weight and went off the diet and gained it all back. Some have even had surgeries or procedures done to loose the weight. They do good for a while, but never learn the discipline it takes to keep off the weight. Loosing weight and keeping it off will only happen with discipline and a life style change. Instead of thinking that you have to loose weight and cant eat what you want to, eat what you want to for one meal per week as a reward for eating healthy.

If your like me and need help, get an accountability partner. My wife is my accountability partner. She helps me stick to what I'm aloud to eat, and has come up with some really good stuff to eat that fits within the life style change. If you don't have a wife or someone who can keep you accountable to your healthy life style change then start a group at your church or in your community.
