			<title>Baptism Service</title>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Our annual Baptism service is coming! On Sunday July 19th, we will cancel our regular services to host one major baptism service at 10:30 am held at Chukchansi park in downtown Fresno. It is a great time to celebrate what God has done and acknowledge the public confessions of faith by His people. Every year we have dozens of individuals who desire to be baptized, and for that we are grateful. Mark your calendars for the service change and know that everyone is welcome to stay and watch the Fresno Fuego game after the service at 2:00PM, tickets courtesy of The Well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewell/news/~4/taasPXmUr6I" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;A few weeks ago The Well had its Storyboard Celebration, where our teams presented some of their plans for the future.  If you like to see where we foresee the church doing in the future, you should check out this video.

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Neighborhood Thrift is on the brink of something big! Something as big as a 21,000 sq ft building expansion. The store is in need of your support to make this transition happen. Every Thursday for the next 6 weeks we are providing a missional opportunity for you, your family or your life group to join us in service to our community. Various tasks will include painting, sheet rocking, sorting clothing, moping and cleaning floors, and looking good. The new store location is 353 E Olive Ave, Fresno CA 93728 (its on the NE corner of Palm and Olive, look for the red awning) Wear clothes to get down and dirty in, we will be working every Thursday between the hours of 5:00 pm and will likely wrap up at 9:00pm (anytime your available is valuable). Things to Bring; A smiling face, bags of clothes (donations), your friends, your friends friends.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewell/news/~4/H-jykSq-mzU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Discovery is a class we offer that really has two purposes: 1) it gives people who are new to The Well or ?kicking the tires? so to speak, the opportunity to pull back the curtain, ask Brad questions, and hear more about our purpose and theological bents. 2) it is a requirement for certain leadership positions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Discovery will take place at the north campus at Maple and Nees on July 11th from 830am-1pm. Breakfast and Lunch are included. The event is free, but there is a your unique design profile, which we highly recommend you doing, that is $35 and can be taken online at www.youruniquedesign.com.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you would like to sign up for our discovery class, you can do so at the ihub at your campus or email janie@thewellcommunity.org.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope to see you there!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewell/news/~4/yR97jv3lAMU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

			<title>Edah is Going Green</title>
			<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/thewell/news/~3/WC1srEL_bMs/article</link>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;In a desire to be better stewards of our Earth, The Well has decided to ?Go Green?. We are encouraging everyone to bring your own MUG to enjoy our strong and hot Ugly Mug coffee. In researching this idea we found that since mid-August 2008 the Well North has generated 15,840 gallons of trash. WOW?that is a lot of garbage! These numbers include Sunday only trash and not anything that happens during the week (WSM, The Guild, Discovery or Men?s Fraternity). We also found out that we have spent more than $3,700 on cups and lids.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So starting June 2009, bring their own Ugly Mug to enjoy our Ugly Mug coffee. In fact we will be taking pictures of your Ugly Mugs (the coffee cups I mean) and will be holding a contest to find the most UGLY MUG! The prize is an assortment of coffees. So let?s have some fun this summer checking out your Ugly Mugs and being better stewards.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewell/news/~4/WC1srEL_bMs" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

			<title>Residency and Internship Now Accepting Applications</title>
			<link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/thewell/news/~3/4uCrS_r30N8/article</link>

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Our Residency Program and Internship Program are now accepting applications.  For more info on each of these programs you can visit their information pages available below. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Well?s Residency Program is a 9 month seminary level learning experience aimed at growing emerging leaders towards a better understanding of Bible, Theology, Leadership, Character Development, and Servanthood. Like a medical residency program, we?re seeking to give our residents a solid foundation in the Scriptures preparing them for a lifetime of service to our Lord.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://thewellcommunity.org/information/residency.aspx"&gt;Residency Information&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is our goal to provide you with exposure into the inner workings of The Well, to provide teaching on the philosophy behind what we do, and to help you realize your place in ministry. It?s our desire to pull back the curtain and show you Oz, as unimpressive as it may be, with the goal ultimately being to equip the saints for ministry. If you have ever thought a future in full-time ministry is for you, the internship will help give guidance to those thoughts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://thewellcommunity.org/information/internship.aspx"&gt;Internship Information&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This year you can also apply online.  The PDF packet and application form can be found here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://thewell.ccbchurch.com/app/w_form_response.php?form_id=52"&gt;Residency &amp; Internship Application Form&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/thewell/news/~4/4uCrS_r30N8" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
