Hello!!!

I hope everyone had a great turkey day!! Here's the deal for the next few weeks:

Wednesday night bible studies are the Nov. 29, Dec. 6 & 13. December 20th, if you would like, we will be meeting to watch the movie The Nativity. Time and theater to be announced later.


Sunday Dec 3rd - There will be NO fellowship because of the concert @ 7 pm. We are going to hang out and have pizza (Anybody want to bring me Christmas cookies??) @ 6 pm before the concert. Please let us know if you are going to join us so we know how much pizza to order.

Seniors!!!! Monday December 4th, there will be a Senior dinner at Scott Jone's house at 7 oclock. Come, hang out, and get some grub!

Sunday Dec 10th first is the CYF CHRISTMAS PARTY!!!!! You need to meet at the church at 4:30 for a SURPRISE SURPRISE!! After, you will be journeying to David Klein's just like last year for a bonfire and fun. Please bring a coat and a $1 wrapped CHURCH APPROPRIATE white elephant Christmas gift. Sad but true, I won't be there as I will be in the Carribean, but have a christmas cookie for me!!

Also, that same Sunday, please bring a small gift as a stocking stuffer to Sunday school. We are going to be putting together stockings for the bridges kiddos!

Dec. 16th is the Stone Soup Christmas Concert. If you are singing with them, please remember to be attending all rehearsals.



Now, as it is the Christmas holiday, we need to remember that we are servants of Christ. So in turn, this Sunday we are doing the IHN move in after service.

Here are the following reasons why you should stay and help out:
1. It's a good cause
2. You earn disciple points!!
3. You get a chance to serve/pray for the families that will be staying in our church
4. If you don't, Santa will put coal in your stocking...

OK, so the last one isn't really true. Santa loves you all, but I hope you all will stay the extra half hour and help us set up. IHN is a great ministry and you are great kids. We will be meeting right after Sunday school (noon) and get it done. Please come help.

Hope you are having a great week! See you Wednesday or Sunday night for the Concert!!!

Gooble Gooble!! Hey guys!

So, it's finally the week of Thanksgiving! I know I am excited about food, family and fun! (Don't mind my slightly jaded turkey at the top) Remember this week who you are thankful for and don't forget to thank God for all your blessings!

We don't have too much going on this week because we want you to have plenty of family time. There will not be bible study or fellowship this week. I know...cry cause you will miss us!!!


But don't despair!!! We have so much to look forward to in December!
December 10th!!!!!!!!! (not the 3rd) is the Youth Christmas Party!!! Now, you don't get to know too many of the detials, but here's what we need from you. Be at the church at 4:30 ready to leave. Please bring a coat (it will be cold!!) and a wrapped $1 Christmas gift! Get ready to have some fun!!!
December 16th is the Stone Soup Christmas Concert. All those who are singing must have attended the previous rehearsals and the dress rehearsal. Don't forget!!!
There is tons of fun stuff going on outside of the youth department at the church this holiday season you might want to check out:
~Dec. 3 Choir Christmas Concert
~Dec. 9th there is a Christmas sing along by the fountain. I think I heard there is cookies and wassil so...there's some incentive. (Then again, this is coming from the girl who ate 6 mini cupcakes today...)
~Dec. 16th is the stone soup Christmas Concert which some of your fellow youths will be involved in!
Alright, that's all I've got. Have a wonderful turkey day and we will see you guys soon!

Hey Cool Cats! 80's roller night was super rad!!!! (That's 80's lingo there for your enjoyment, but really...I'll stop now.) Big props to Bob Coolidge, Judy, Linda, and Suzy for their attemps at skating... even though Judy and Suzy crashed into the wall...We love you guys!



And it was a good thing that my chicken Henry could make an apperance last night...



Anyways, here's all that is going on this week! It's gonna be a good one!
