If you don't read this blog, you will turn into a frog.

       Clovis Volunteers! We so appreciate you, and because we do, we want to keep you updated on the latest info. Here's your weekly briefing on how you can help our campus go to the next level. Thank you  team, you are awesome! 

The Chair  
The series that rocked our world in October is back in action! Taking a paragraph to explain how      powerful these testimonies are would be a waste of time because we all know just how much of a punch they each carry. This is an in-house outreach we have every year that is specifically designed to reach the lost. As much as you would like to kick your feet up, pop some popcorn, and enjoy the show, this series isn't for us; it's for our lost neighbors, friends, and families that are looking for something more to life. Let's answer their call by inviting them to one of these weekends. 
*The Chair will be airing on the weekend of the 19th and the 26th  

On the Wall Prayer
I know how you feel. It's the middle of the week, it's been a long day at work, and nothing sounds better than eating pizza and watching The X Factor. BUT (excuse my big but), how much better would you feel coming into an environment and being touched and refreshed by the presence of God? No one on this planet can convince me that watching something on TV,  reading the newspaper, or even stuffing my face with cheesy pizza is better than an experience with God! Come at 7pm to our Clovis Campus on Wednesdays not to just push this movement to another level but to get an infilling from God that you have desperately been needing. In Acts 16, the Bible teaches us that Paul and Silas' chains broke off as they began to worship and pray; what are some chains that you need to see fall off? Come see those things break and your spirit lifted at our Wednesday night, On the Wall services, I promise you will love it :)

Events and Outreaches 
Do you want to eat whatever you want for Thanksgiving without feeling guilty and support Paid and Full at the same time?! Well look no further folks because Training Day has arrived and he is here to help! With some pointers and instruction from three former NFL players, a sprint all-star, and a D1 coach you can learn how to get in the best shape of your life. No matter what level you are at or how much experience you have, these people (male and female) are willing to walk you through the steps it will take for you to reach your specific physical goals. This will take place at our Clovis Campus, on Saturday, Nov. 19th, from 10am-12pm. The cost is $25 and every penny will go towards our Paid and Full campaign. Bring your co-workers, neighbors, and friends- they will love it! Sign-up this weekend!

We have a ton of great things going on at the church that you and your family can get involved with. Please check out the table this weekend to see what you can participate in and how you can help spread the word to others.
*Please see November Calendar two posts below to see our different events

The 99
Celebration has the opportunity, this month, to partner with other churches in the Valley and with an organization called The 99 to see a boat-load of salvations! The 99 is a reality walk-through theatre that is being set up in our new Fresno location parking lot. The 99 crew has estimated that around 20 thousand people will be walking though it, with a total of  2 to 10 thousand salvations! This is a great outreach opportunity for us to unite with other churches and we want to show our support. 
It takes roughly 250 volunteers every night to put this on and you can sign-up to do anything from being a cast member, to security, to hospitality, or a counselor. Besides seeing countless amounts of people get saved, you will also receive a meal every night you serve!
 In order to volunteer you must attend one of the two meetings that will be held this Saturday, Nov. 12th from 10am-12pm and on Monday, Nov. 14th from 6:30-8:30pm. These meetings will be held at the new Fresno location parking lot, in the big white tent.

Creating an Irresistible Environment 
Congratulations you are a leader! A leader is simply a person that is followed by others and I hope you understand that it's God that has given you this opportunity. Whether you have the badge on or not, when you step onto our Clovis Campus you are a leader that has the ability to set the atmosphere. Help us create such an irresistible environment that puts anything else in this city to shame. Let's go toe to toe with Starbucks and the Cinemas, and restaurants- people are looking for answers and we're the ones who have been entrusted with it! Let's make everything about us communicate that we are glad to be there, and when we do, we will begin to attract those people. Know this, that when you are gone, whether you are serving or not, your absence is felt. You aren't just a warm body in a chair, you are a leader that is helping to mobilize a body of people to reach and affect a community- you are needed!

Important!
We love you and want you know that we have a special invitation for every volunteer to pick up this weekend! Please see the volunteer table to receive it. Thank you everyone, we'll see you this weekend!
