Youth Activities
We are committed to enjoyable and enriching activities for our youth. Extra classes are held from time to time, as well as recreational activities. Our youth are taken to youth rallies when we know the activities will be suitable. (We do not participate in Winterfest.)

Palmetto Bible Camp
Many of our young people go to Palmetto Bible Camp (north of Greenville, SC). The camp is under different directors from week to week. The elders encourage attendance during certain weeks.

Carolina Men's Fellowship
Beginning in 1999 Charlotte Avenue has hosted an annual gathering of men from all over the Carolinas. The number in attendance continues to grow and we have had to rent a larger facility. It is held on the second Saturday of March, with powerful preaching and singing, as well as a catered lunch. On the next day one of the guest speakers is scheduled to begin a gospel meeting series at Charlotte Avenue.

Vacation Bible School
Our annual one-day, all-day, Vacation Bible School is held on a Saturday in the summer. The program consists of skits of Bible stories produced by adults for the children. There are also short classes to impress the lessons and recreational activities.

Service Teams
Members who want to participate are divided into Service Teams. These teams often provide lunch for visitors after the Sunday morning worship. They also provide setup and cleanup for other church social functions. On most first-Sunday nights we have a snack fellowship for everyone following the evening worship.

Financial Support of Missions
A considerable part of our budget is for the support of missions. At the present regularly monthly support is being sent to: Kiev, Ukraine; E. Tennessee School of Preaching; Lancaster, SC; Preacher school in Haiti; Southeastern Children's Home. Total mission budget for 2004 is $48,000.

Benevolence
We maintain a food pantry to assist needy people who contact us for help. We must limit monetary assistance. During September - May we have a monthly Feed the Hungry program in which meals are distributed to destitute people in parts of Rock Hill. Several other area churches are involved in this same project. Our cooperation with them involves exchange of information and coordination of schedules.

Publications
A bulletin is published for every Sunday and distributed at the services. Usually a copy will be mailed to members who were absent. We encourage the reading of sound magazines and journals. The church sends the following publications to members who request them: Carolina Messenger (monthly, our preacher is the editor); Gospel Minutes (weekly); Gospel Advocate (monthly); Spiritual Sword (quarterly, our preacher is a regular writer).

Assemblies for Worship
Hebrews 10:25 tells us not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together. Worship is essential and every member is encouraged to be at every service. This includes meetings on the Lord's Day and other occasions when the church is called together (Wednesday nights, gospel meetings, etc.)

Questions are sometimes asked about proper attire. There are no rules about dress except modesty. Shorts and short skirts or other provocative apparel are out of place.
