Building Update

If you haven’t driven by our new church home recently, you'll be amazed at all the progress that's been made this summer. The steeple has been installed, the exterior walls are in place, and more features are being added daily. Check out our building update page for details about the construction process.

Kenn returns to speak at both services on Sunday, Sept. 5th. This 18-year veteran of America's top comedy clubs is also a highly-respected communicator and Bible teacher. Kenn's engaging storytelling has catapulted him into the national spotlight, with appearances on Comedy Central, XM Radio, and countless TV and radio shows. In addition to being a sought-after speaker, he is the author of several top-selling books and videos. Kenn's background includes a BBA in Marketing and career in corporate sales. He lives in Atlanta with his wife, Heather, and their three children.

Save the Date of Saturday, Nov. 13th

Before the January move-in date, we are going to have a sneak preview party in the atrium of our new church facility. Though the building will still have some finishing touches to be completed, the event will allow us to join together as a community, and get a glimpse at the potential of our wonderful new home. Dress up in your fall finery (dancing shoes too) and get ready for a memorable night. Invitations are forthcoming to all adults of the Horizon Community.

Game Night!

Grown-ups can have fun too. Our monthly game night is a great opportunity for adults to get to know others who attend Horizon and have some fun playing a variety of games. Mark your calendar now for 7 p.m. on the following Saturday evenings: Sept. 18th, Oct. 16th, and Nov. 6th. Dave & Sue Neumann host the events at their Madeira home, (7605 Miami Ave.) and RSVP's are appreciated, but not required. Snacks or drinks are welcomed too, but also optional. Invite a friend or a couple. For details, contact lov2sew@hotmail.com or 513-793-6929.

Spiritual Jump Start

The new fall lineup of seminars, studies and small groups is organizing now, providing a great way to get your spiritual motor revving for the fall. Groups are offered for all ages and interests. We're also looking for those who can host a group in homes or offices. Step out to facilitate a video study or co-lead a book discussion. For details or to volunteer, contact Tom McKittrick at groups@horizoncc.com.

IN - CHILDREN'S NEWS

IN Christmas Musical

Shoot for the Stars! Yes, it's already time to begin thinking about Christmas, as Horizon's children begin preparations for this year's Christmas musical,

entitled Star of Wonder -- a musical ride through the heavens with some of our favorite 'stars': Lucky, Shooting, North, Falling and others. There are numerous acting parts, solos, dancing and chorus for all K through 5th grade students. Rehearsals start Sept. 12th. For details, contact Sarah Youngblood at syoungblood@horizoncc.com or 513 272-5800.

IN Store

The IN store is open the first Sunday of every month. Kids can exchange their IN bucks for toys, books and other prizes. Not only can children purchase items for themselves, but they have an option to also give to children less fortunate. This is a great opportunity for kids to learn the value of giving back.

MIDDLE SCHOOL NEWS

9:15 Program

The 9:15 service for 7th and 8th grade is a service-focused class called "Beyond Words" that brings what the students have learned in Bible studies to life. They create, develop, and then participate in their own service project. The students will choose what project they want to work on in our community, and then spend one day during the week working on that project. Every Sunday, the students will discuss the previous week's project and then plan for the exciting challenges that service opportunity holds for them in the coming weeks. It will be a time to develop leadership and community through tangible and long-lasting experiences. Get ready for your student to go "Beyond Words."

7th & 8th Grade Location

7th & 8th Grade meets for both services in the choir room, which is located downstairs, next to Freedom 56. To get there, follow the hallway to the right of the auditorium, go through the double doors, turn left down the steps and turn right when you get to the lower level.
