Movie Start TIME: tenatively 7:10 pm @ Regal Cinemas @ 185th TBD

In 1960s Baltimore, dance-loving teen Tracy Turnblad auditions for a spot on ''The Corny Collins Show'' and wins. She becomes an overnight celebrity, a trendsetter in dance, fun and fashion. Perhaps her status as a new teen sensation is enough to topple Corny's reigning dance queen and bring racial integration to the show. Based on the 1988 film and subsequent Broadway musical.

Catch Phrase Anyone?

2007-06-03T23:56:00.000-07:00

A catch phrase is a word, phrase or expression recognized by its repeated utterance. Also called a memetic phrase, a catch phrase often originates in popular culture and the arts, and typically spreads through a variety of mass media (such as literature and publishing, motion pictures, television and radio), as well as word of mouth. Some catch phrases become the de facto "trademark" of the person or character with whom they originated.

Updating Pic

2007-04-21T16:34:00.000-07:00

Several people have mentioned that we need to update our picture on the blog. It was just taken 2 weeks ago and it just happens that we had several people not there on that Tuesday night. We will plan on taking another picture on this upcoming Tuesday night, April 24th. Please, spread the word and be there if possible so that you are on our fun webpage!

Keep reading our study book, remember to finish Chapter 1 & 2 and come prepared with a reflective thought or two on your reading.

See you in just a few if your attending Saturday night group,
Dawn

Beginning a New Study

2007-04-18T16:58:00.000-07:00

If you received our new book this week, Diaries of a Teenage Girl, at group then you should be ready to begin our new study. If you are one of the few that did not receive a book but are anxiously awaiting one please send me a quick e-mail or phone call and I will mail a copy of the first 2 chapters out to you ASAP.

As you begin to read thru the book and get a feel for the writing style it might be a good idea to have a piece of paper nearby. You can begin to jot down notes and points of interest that jump out at you as you read. We want to hear your thoughts at group on Tuesday!!

More, ponderings on the book to come soon .......

~Dawn

P.s. I am going to try and attach a calendar to our blog. Please, fill it in with your sporting/choir/drama/band/etc events so we as a group can pray for you and hopefully attend a few.

Diary of a Teenage Girl

2007-04-12T16:26:00.000-07:00

In the fictional Diary of a Teenage Girl, sixteen-year-old Caitlin O'Conner reveals the inner workings of a girl caught between childhood and womanhood ... an empty life without Christ and a meaningful one with Him. Through Caitlin's candid journal entries we see her grapple with such universal teen issues as peer pressure, loyalty, conflict with parents, the longing for a boyfriend, and her own spirituality. Readers will laugh and cry with Caitlin as she struggles toward self-discovery and understanding God's plan for her life. And they'll be deeply moved by her surprising commitment regarding dating.

Please, remember to bring $5 to small group on Tuesday night. We will begin our study on the book listed above and chat briefly about the description. Be prepared to dig deep!
