Clay Terrace Baptist... Sunday, May 13th

A church for our community, Clay Terrace Baptist, is officially now underway, starting Sunday May 13, 2012 at 10:30am at the Comfort Suites.


Ron & Teresa Steege

Pastor Ron has led a weekly 'Paradise Bible-study' every Friday morning (7am) Clay Terrace.  [Everyone is welcome -- come check it out!]  For those of us who know him well, he's become a great friend.  We hope you'll get to know him soon.  But more than that, his wife Teresa is active at Janus Developmental Services, providing those with disabilities an opportunity to participate & contribute within the community.  Their daughter Zoe (4 mos) is a delightful addition to our Paradise group!

Ron says that the Sunday services will include singing some of the old familiar hymns, and a time of fellowship around God's Word.

The Comfort Suites are located near Clay Terrace at 15131 Thatcher Lane (by McDonalds).

For more information you can call Ron (317-446-8504) or email ronaldsteege@gmail.com.  Or better yet, come have coffee and a muffin with us Friday morning.    ;)

Community Readiness Webinar... May 17th

The Community Preparedness Webinar Series invites you to join us for a webinar highlighting exercises that had a focus on community preparedness and participation. The webinar will feature presentations from emergency management practitioners who have been involved in the design and execution of exercises.

Emergencies often involve a “whole community” effort with help from volunteer organizations, schools, businesses, faith-based institutions, and a range of other organizations; therefore, it is important that emergency management agencies partner with community-based organizations and integrate them into their jurisdiction's emergency plans and exercises.

We hope the ideas, strategies and practices shared during this webinar will help other communities design and conduct exercises that enhance community preparedness and participation.

Details about the 2pm webinar on May 17th.
