Invitation from the Migity-Mac Mark Calhoun

Greetings Friends....

There are just some occasions that call for a gathering...The Denver Broncos in a playoff game is one such occasion.
If you are not otherwise engaged we would love to have you join us for this event....
We should be ready to roll anytime after 1:30 on Sunday January 22nd. Game Time is 2:00.

You can find the action at 302 South Crestway, a few blocks West of Oliver and two blocks south of Douglas.
Email us if you need directions, gobroncos@ehumc.org or call us if you get lost... 683.6260.

If you're up to it you might bring a finger food/appetizer and/or a two liter bottle of soda.
As well, we invite you bring an 18 ounce jar (or two) of peanut butter. I just heard today that Urban Ministries is very low on the peanutty delight that they use as a staple for their food boxes....

Peace,

The Calhoun's
Mark, Julie, Zach, Jake, and Samson the dog.....

Hello Everyone!

I assume by know you have all talked to Kathy Lefler about the change in venue this weekend. The Habitat House if complete, but there is still work to be done. We will now be meeting at 1122 N. Topeka to preform some work on a building for GraceMed. The work day starts at 8 am and will include some painting and some demo / construction of a fence. Several of you have talked to Shelly about bringing various supplies for lunch and that is much appreciated.

The weather forecast for Saturday is a mostly sunny 65 degrees with a 10% chance for rain, so be ready to spend a glorious day outside in God's creation!

Please let me know if you have any questions, and we will see you all Saturday at 7:45!!
