May 10 - 16

Our last Wednesday night gathering of the school year is this Wednesday, May 11th. We will be having Unplug, which is a low key, fun, and relaxed atmosphere for students to hangout, play games, engage in fun conversations, and simply be. To close out Wednesday nights well we will have ice cream floats (root beer & coke) and ice cream sundaes (for those who don't like floats). Join us for as little or as long as you are able. We will gather in the youth lounge and have everything out for the treats.

Graduate Sunday is coming up quickly and we as a youth ministry are looking forward to celebrating these students and their families. We will have a lunch for all of the graduates and their families, youth and their families, and leaders and their families. This will be a time where the youth ministry comes together to share their thankfulness for these students and send them on to the next chapter in life. We hope you will make this part of your plans.

We are back for 2 more Sunday afternoon bible studies (May 15 and May 22). We look forward to getting back into thought-provoking conversations, fun games, and a great time together. We start at 4pm with games and complete our bible study around 6pm.

Each year we present a book of notes to our high school graduates. These notes are written by the youth group and congregation to encourage, share scripture, affirm, uplift, and remind graduating seniors of their faith community. Please take some time to write a note to each of the seniors. Note drop off and pick up areas are in the first floor lobby, second floor lobby, and youth place. Take a moment to encourage and support these seniors!

If you need any scholarship help please let Dane know...funds are available to support families. Also, please complete and return forms to Elizabeth or Dane in the church office as soon as you can.
