WHAT’S BEEN GOING ON…

 

 

Lots of Faith, Food, Fun and Fellowship on Sunday nights!!

¨ Faith– We began our second DVD youth ministry series in January.  This series is entitled “King David – Trials, Temptations, and Triumphs”.  It is broken up into 4 sessions, the first of which was about overcoming our giants.  Using the story of David and Goliath as a model, the session encouraged us to identify the giants in our lives and how we can have faith in God to overcome them.

¨ Food, Fun and Fellowship– Thanks to all the families who have provided dinner for youth group, Sunday nights start with a blessing, then sharing, talking, and laughing over a meal.  After our program time, we frequently play games as the fun continues! 

¨ We had our first Sunday night gathering of the New Year on Jan. 8th, where we celebrated our January Birthdays:  Angela Osgood (14) 01/07, Samantha Suib (14) 01/09, Caroline Bryan (14) 01/12, Sophia Broadnax (14) 01/13, Owen Dankworth (14) 01/23, Megan Long (14) 01/26 ~ Happy Birthday to all of you!!

¨ On Sunday, January 15th, Kim Weakley came to Youth Group to provide information and discuss theSenior High Guatemala mission trip this summer.  It was an informative meeting where we really got a feel for this awesome trip!!  There will be another information meeting for Parents & Senior High Youth (rising 10thgraders)on Sunday, February 12th.
