Youth News

Fifth Quarters: Start tonight (August 31 and will be after every home game). Food, fun, fellowship, football, who could ask for anything more?

Lock-In: September 14-15. It should be super fun and Youth Council is planning the schedule

Youth Council: Speaking of Youth Council... we had an info meeting the other night. There are three main goals of youth council: 1. Leadership 2. Planning 3.Spiritual Growth. Planning is the main thing we will do in meetings, but being part of Youth Council means committing to being a leader in the youth group and personal spiritual growth. Our meetings will be the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month from 7:15-8:00 (gollowing Wed. night Bible study). Please contact Josh if you would like to join.

See You @ the Pole: September 26 at 7:00 am at the middle schools and highschool.

Amazing Race: Wednesday, October 31

Youth Council

What is Youth Council?
How can I join?
Why should I join?
When will it meet?
Will it be the same as last year?
Am I really qualified?
Aren't I too cool for something nerdy like that?

These are a few of the questions you may have about Youth Council (the leadership team made up of youth). We will have an information meeting on Wednesday, August 29 from 7:15 to 8:00 to answer these questions and more. Come to this meeting if you are interested in being involved in the leadership of your youth group.

Wednesday Night Clean-up

Wednesday night supper and Bible study wont kick off for another week. So this week (Aug 15), we will be having a "special" Wednesday night activity. Our summer activities are over, but the Bible study has yet to start so.... its time for cleaning. You may have noticed the Youth House is getting a little dingy, so what better way to spend an evening than cleaning it up. The "fun" starts at 6:00.

Water Wars

Come celebrate the last days of summer this Wednesday (August 8) with Water Wars. Come wearing a swimsuit and prepare for a water slide, water battles and other water themed activities. The "wars" begin at 6:00 pm.

Let's Go Shopping

Is everyone (and by that I mean all the girls- sorry guys) ready for a super fun shopping trip in Atlanta. I'm pretty psyched about getting to drive yall and then wait patiently in the van to drive you home. If you haven't signed up but think you can make it give me a call so we can know how many folks are coming.

Disc Golf Coming to Macon

Great news, the best sport ever created (uh, that may be a tiny bit of exaggeration) is coming to Bibb County (which I might add I don't really know where counties are so I hope that is not like sixty miles away). In other news, Josh is trying to set a world record for the most excessive use of superfluous (which basically means unnecessary) use of parenthetical banter (such as this [and here is where it gets really interesting]).

For more information refer to the article from Macon.com

Relaxed Summers

The adults are canceling Wednesday night activities but we youth can do better than that. We will continue to meet but with a more relaxed fellowship based. Two major choices are to do a movie night or have a more recreation oriented activity like ultimate frisbee.
