The 50
The 50
What is the 50? Good question. We are looking for 50 people to form the core group of launching a Sunday night service in January. We are looking for 50 people who want to be a part of something from the very beginning. 50 people who want to give voice and direction to a service geared toward changing a campus. If you are the kind of person that gets excited about dreaming and thinking about the future, you need to be part of the 50. To be a part of the 50 or to find out more, email kelsi@avechurch.com or sign up at the weekend service.

Last Call for West Hall
Alright, U of L students this week is your last chance to sign up to reserve your room in West Hall!
With all of the recent excitement over “the decision” of Lebron James, this decision has been met with equal amounts of excitement. The only difference is I don’t think anyone will burn your jersey should you choose to live in West. So please, let us know how we can help & Sign Up before the 17th to get into the Avenue’s Christian Learning Community @ West Hall for this year. Rooms are filling up fast so its first come first serve! We already have around 7 students signed up and we need just a few more so spread the word!
Any questions email us @info@avechurch.com
Pine Haven – The Avenues 1st Missions Trip
Last week, the Avenue sent 12 people to Missoula, Montana, to Pine Haven Christian Ranch, a residential ranch for youth with no other place to go. The team had an amazing week of working on the ranch and providing assistance by working beside the young people, loving and caring for them and sharing the hope of the gospel.
Here are a few pictures of their journey:
Attention U of L Students – One more week for West Hall

Hey students or friends of students or parents of students or acquaintances of students,
WE NEED YOU!
The Avenue Church, while working with the housing department @ U of L has been given West Hall, a dorm in the center of campus. Our vision is to create a Christian living environment where students can spend one year living in Christian community & being trained weekly on how to be a missionary on their campus.
Many Christian students & parents are nervous about the dorms at U of L & also are looking for Christian community & relationships their first year on campus.
Our hope is not to lift up the name of our church & ministry in fact we simply want to see Christian students on campus trained on how to influence their campus for Christ! We want to lift up the name of Jesus on campus. Imagine what could happen, if each year this dorm was full of students being trained to love & serve their campus with the heart of Christ. Imagine, if these students then became RA’s all over campus, if they were involved in student government & began leading other students on campus.
The possibilities are endless………….but WE NEED TO SIGN UP 10 more students by JULY 17th or the entire project could be in jeopardy!
Any student living anywhere on campus can switch their housing assignment to West Hall between now & the 17th. Would you please prayerfully consider encouraging some students to make this a priority & to consider moving into West Hall. Our fear is if we don’t fill the dorm (20 rooms) 10 male – 10 female than we may lose this opportunity forever.
If you or anyone you know is interested have them contact me @ ben@avechurch.com
