Hello Friends!
Spring is FINALLY here once again! This is our second most favorite time of the year, fall being the first. We are looking forward to the many activities we are going to be able to do with the youth outside; like campfires, volleyball, kickball etc. This is becoming the busiest time of the year for our youth and their families but we pray that God will keep our youth interested throughout the spring and summer months so that they will continue to come.
Over the past month or so the youth have been making easter eggs and it has been quite a success already. We have earned about $600.00 dollars so far and we still have a month to go! We work on making the eggs every Thursday night at 6:00 p.m. If anyone is interested in helping during the day time please see Blair and she will set up a day and time that we can do that.
The youth has started some new adventures in our studies on Sunday evening. Our senior youth boys are studying through the men of the bible. Senior youth girls are working through a book called Sexy Girls (I know, it sounds like something we wouldn’t read at youth) it is a study on modesty and how girls can help keep their fellow Christian brother’s minds pure. Junior youth is starting to read through the different books of the bible and taking a closer look to really discover things for themselves. God has definitely blessed this church with wonderful youth and they are growing together as a group and spiritually.
We would like the parents to keep us informed of the youth’s activities outside of church so Blair and I can come and support them and be a part of their lives in that aspect as well. So please when you get their schedules for activities or events give us a copy or email us!
The following is a list of our activities and fundraisers that are coming up in the next several months. We thank you in advance for all your support and prayers in all of these events.
