Back-to-School Week

This was a great week at Second. let me recap some of the highlights.

Last Sunday 201 youth attended Second U (our three Sunday School hours). This was the third highest attendance since Cory West arrived.
Sunday night 79 high school students attended Connexxus (small groups).

Wednesday night, 111 Middle Schoolers and their leaders attended SYNC. This exceeds the previous small group attendance record by nearly 30. Congratulations to Cory and his awesome leaders.

Our new Men's Ministry Bible Study group met for the first time Wednesday night. 85 attended. Come join us next Wednesday night at 6pm. We are proud of Shane Segars and Jay Hughes for leading this.

The MSU Vine met Wednesday night for the first time this semester. Several hundred students attended. We had 200 students gather Tuesday night for our first meeting of The Drury Vine. To put it in perspective, that's 10% of their student population. Congratulations to our College Minister, Daniel Hood, to his interns, and to his leaders at the Drury Vine, Clayton and Katie Havelka.

Our Preschool and Children's Ministries filled all volunteer positions. Thank you, Leah Capps and Denise Schriver.

Thanks goes to Kevin Hawkins and our church choir for their singing the National Anthem at the Cardinals game last night.
