Sunday

This Sunday is a regular youth group meeting from 5-7 with dinner at 5 in the Dining Room! Plan to be there as we discuss how to begin a new friendship...

Also if you are interested in going on retreat December 12-14, please sign up ASAP. There will also be commitment forms due by November 16 and $35 due by December 7.

Fall Xtravaganza!!

Don't forget this Sunday is the Fall Xtravaganza! It's at regular youth group time from 5-7, wear a costume. And bring $3 for pizza and a bag of candy to share... Let me know if you have any questions... HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!! :-)

November preview: We will be talking about building healthy relationships with parents, friends, and non-Christians. Hope you can join us for these conversations.

Upcoming stuff...

So the make a difference day is October 25 and I need to know if anyone is interested in going. If we are going to Mansfield, we would leave at 7am and be back by 6 or so. The OSU game is at 8 that evening, so you would not miss the game. The jobs would be more like things we do on work mission - cleaning yards, winterizing houses, etc.

If you are interested in helping PLEASE let me know ASAP. If you are interested in helping but can't commit to the whole day, let me know that as well and we can look at some local options.

Also - remember that the Fall Xtravaganza is on the 26th. It's at regular youth group time from 5-7. Wear your costume, and bring $3 for pizza and a bag of your favorite individually wrapped candy.

One more thing - if you are going to the be at the SUM family reunion on Sunday from 4:30-6:30 and would be willing to help lead games for a half hour of that time, or if you can stay after church and help decorate, that would be great as well. Comments, emails, etc. are greatly appreciated!

October Teen Nite

In October there are going to be some special things going on at teen nite to help pay for the ministry center, that we use so much during teen nite (the gym, dining room, game room, etc.) Here is the important information:

Activities:

• Jail: For a quarter you can have your friend arrested, who can get out of jail for a quarter or stay in jail for 10 minutes. You can also buy an immunity card for $1
• Cornhole: a quarter to play
• Karaoke: Free
• Guess how many: you guess how many Hershey kisses are in the jar and the closest person wins the jar. Each guess is a quarter.
  

For purchase:

• Glow Bracelets: $1 each
• Temporary Tattoos: a quarter each
• Care bears: sold by the children of our church, each costs a quarter, you write your name on it, and then it is displayed in the church
• Sweepstakes: Everyone gets one entry into the sweepstakes prizes. Extra entries may be purchased for a quarter each or 5 for $1
  

Donations:

• There will be jars in a few places for people who want to make direct donations

Normal activities:

• There will still be basketball, dancing, both game rooms, and food in the dining room
• There will NOT be a movie
• Admission is still $3

So bring some extra money (especially quarters) and some friends and come to the church on October 17 from 7-9:59 for a fun Friday night! Leave a comment or contact Katy at the church office with any questions or comments.
