Come to Beersheba! October 22-24, 2010 The historic Beersheba Springs Assembly is perched on top of the Cumberland Plateau near McMinnville and Manchester, Tennessee. Many of the buildings existed before the Civil War. The hotel overlooks the glorious Collins River Valley where you can rock and watch the fog lift, or track a single white cloud drift by below you. The mountain climate will cure what ails you. We have reserved the vintage accommodations in the upper hotel. What these rooms may lack in modernity, they more than make up for in charm. (They tilt a mite toward Aunt Sally’s.) The view and the charm of Beersheba remind us that we are standing on sacred ground. The prices vary depending on how many people stay in your room, but here is a typical breakdown from last year for two nights and four meals: Youth — $90 Couples — $135 Single adults — $120 See the bulletin board in the Fellowship Hall for this year’s pricing. Reserve your room for just $15.00 per person. Call or email Emalie for reservations. 615-403-8455 or discoteach@gmail.com

Please join us for this event at Nashville Shores. We understand that many of our friends from Mountain T.O.P. will be there. Tickets are $15 and they are good for the rest of the summer. Meet us at Nashville Shores, enjoy the day, and then, stay. After the park closes, we will enjoy a short worship service on the beach as the sun sets.
