Great Summer Behind Us!

It has been a good summer for Threshold Church. We are finally about to get off the ground with everything including My Groups. "My Groups" are our in home Bible Studies. 

This summer we offered three Movie In The Park Events for the community and all three were a great success. 

A number of area businesses participated in the events through giving away gift cards. Movies in the Park allowed me to get to know some great people in business in our community. 

We had four supporters that were over the top with their giving.  Cook Family Chiropractic, Anytime Fitness, Chic-Fil-A and Boiling Springs Furniture.

We had other sponsors that participated in every movie. Cowboy Connection, Chernagans and Boiling Springs Auto Spa. Many others participated in one or more of the movie dates. 

As part of the last movie we were able to collect school supplies and give away the supplies to those in need.

We also had the opportunity to serve breakfast to the teachers of the 9th Grade Campus during the planning time.

Having Another Movie

This Friday we will be showing The Tale of Despereaux at the Boiling Springs Community Park. Free Sno-Cones and inflatables begin at 5:30. We may see some afternoon rain but as long as it is not raining at start time the movie will start at approx. 8:30. School supplies are still needed for many in our area. Please bring supplies as you are able.

June 12, 2009 at Sunset the movie will begin.

The last movie was a ton of fun and we had a great attendance.

People start gathering around 6:30 to get the best seats. 

Many local businesses will be giving away gift cards and other items from their businesses.

Hope to see you there!

These pics are somewhat out of order but here's a few shots of the action.

Randy Goff is a giving machine. Free chicken and drinks for everyone.
Final screen testing before the movie begins
It is starting to look like a crowd. Just 45 minutes until showtime.
I love that cow!

People are starting to show up despite the rain chance.
The last of the frisbees were finally given out. This is the official commemorative frisbee photo with Jonathan the frisbee poser. To get yours just call. Be sure to have your credit card handy.

We waited until the last minute to set up due to the rain. The screen is up and the popcorn is going slow. Yep that is a lot of popcorn!

Movies In The Park - Boiling Springs, SC

THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, May 8, at sundown . . .

Grab your blankets and lawn chairs and come out to Boiling Springs Community Park and enjoy Kung Fu Panda for free on a HUGE movie screen. 

All refreshments are absolutely FREE! Chik-Fil-A has generously donated chicken sandwiches as well. 

Threshold Church has partnered with many local businesses to bring this event as a gift to the community, so come on out and enjoy a family night that is easy on the budget!

New Meeting Place

This Sunday, April 19th we will begin meeting in our new temporary facility. Our new place is located just down the street from McDonalds on 4th Street.  The building is up on the hill. Look for the WELCOME sign. 

Many different people have been hard at work on the facility getting it cleaned and painted for our first day. It may not be finished, but it is just about ready for use. At least we will be close on our completion of the work. Some of the work that remains is the finish work on the sheetrock that we added for sound suppression. During the day on Wednesday we had 12 different people working. They were never all there at once, but a lot of work was completed between 8:30 when the first group arrived and Midnight when the last two left.  Friday (tomorrow) should be another good work day with people scheduled to work throughout the day. 

I am excited to see how God will use this opportunity for us to minister to our community.
