The Nurture and Christian Education Committee is inviting you to a Beach Bonfire on Friday, April 11th (weather permitting)! Let’s enjoy the beauty of God’s creation, the relaxing sound of the ocean waves, and a great opportunity for fellowship! We will gather at 7:00 pm on the beach at the Oak Island Pier, in the direction of Barbee Boulevard (which is just one block away from the Pier), and enjoy the bonfire until about 9:00pm. Sunset will be at 7:43 pm. The pier is open until 10:00 pm, giving a great destination for a relaxed evening stroll. There is plenty of parking around the Pier, including a big parking lot. There is also handicap access, and a bathroom at the pier. You will need to bring your own beach chair(s). Typically, the temperature will be in the mid 60s, so plan to dress accordingly! Snacks and drinks will be provided, but if you would like to contribute something, please contact Agnes Taylor at 910-278-9741 or oakislandpcdce@gmail.com. If you do not like to drive at night, but you would love to join us, we will be glad to arrange a ride for you. Just contact Agnes Taylor. If the weather does not cooperate (too windy, rainy, ...), we will have a MOVIE NIGHT in the Fellowship Hall instead. Make sure to check the church website (www.oipres.org) to see whether we have a bonfire or a movie! If we have Movie Night instead, we will show the movie “The Most Reluctant Convert: The Untold Story of C.S. Lewis” on the big screen in the Fellowship Hall. Experience the conversion journey of the author of The Chronicles of Narnia, Mere Christianity and The Screwtape Letters from hard-boiled atheist to, as C.S. Lewis himself describes it, “the most reluctant convert in all England.” The movie features Samuel West, known for his role as James Herriot in the recent All Creatures Great and Small series.
