New Year New Focus

I trust you signed up for the Bible Reading plan. Here is the link again. http://bible.com/r/34B
Our theme for the Youth this year will be:

"Bring them to Jesus"

Mark 2:3-5 (NKJV) 3 Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men. 4 And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.”

2. I will have printed forms Sunday Evening 1-05-25
Some parents have gone to Friendship Baptists website and tried to fill out their permission slip. I didn't know about it, but I found out that is for their students. We do not have to fill that one out. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Camp Fundraisers:

     February: Envelope Fundraiser   

     April 27th: Dessert Auction Fundraiser

     May 25th: Meal in the Park Fundraiser

Church Camp: (Camp Siloam)

July 14th - July 18th: Week 7-Student Camp

Summer Program: Name?

I have called this program Tribes in the past. However, I hear another church in town calls their youth group that. I'm looking for another name. It's a summer long Competition that we would do at a local park or somewhere lots of people can see us. I'm looking for suggestions as to where we would do it. It needs to be closeish to the church. Val suggested croco road by the sports complex. I'd like to get a couple signs made for this when we get a name. We will most likely do this instead of our Tuesday Bible Studies.

VBS: Older students will have an opportunity to help with VBS this summer. It will be on Sunday Evenings.

How can we be a blessing?
