Upcoming Events

I want to keep you updated on the activities and wherabouts of the youth!

1. Bible Study: Sunday Mornings for both Jr & Sr. high at 9:15am. Sr. High Bible study on Wednesday nights from 8:30-9:30 in the Sr. high youth room.

2. We strive to have one monthly youth event that draws lots of people. October was our progressive dinner which was a hit and may turn in to a yearly event. On November 20th we will be having a movie night at church. We're going all the way...popcorn, pop, movie on the wall...the movie has not been picked yet, but will be soon. All Junior and Senior high are invited.

3. Thanksgiving decorations for the church. It's that time again when we work together to decorate the church for the season of Thanksgiving. A date has not been set yet, but it will announced as soon as we set one! If you have any pumpkins, gourds, corn stalks, etc. that would add to the decor, please let me (Emily) know.

Progressive Dinner was a HIT!

Sunday, October 25th was our first ever progressive dinner and it was a HIT! 23 youth and 5 adults traveled to 4 homes for our meal. The food was so good at every stop we had to eat a lot...but by the eat we were all stuffed! Stay tuned for pictures, they'll be up soon.

Thank you to all of our hosts, the food was fantastic and your hospitality was greatly appreciated!

Homeless & Hungry

6 youth, Pastor Ted and myself, along with 700 other youth from the F-M area, experienced a small taste of what it is like to be homeless. We spent the night in a cardboard box in the cold and rain. Wow, what an eye-openener!




Comment on this post and share some experiences! Are you in next year?!?!
