Running towards God!

All the students are in small groups right now, and I am going to give you a couple things you can talk with your students about tonight when they get home or when you read this.

Tonight we talked about running to God and how do we do that?

Some good questions to ask your student as they come home:
1. How were the games tonight at youth group? - I heard something about a human Christmas tree!
2. The I'm a fire song what are the motions to that song?
3. What do you think the Shepperd's were saying as they ran toward Jesus?
4. How can we run towards Jesus together. Give them a time when you felt close to God and were running after Him.
5. Ask them if they think its hard to run after God?

Hopefully Parents those will help you connect more with your students!

Whoa.

So this last Wednesday night was awesome! The problem is we dont have anyone taking pictures yet!

We have all these students and all these fun games going on but no one to take pictures. All of my staff are busy getting things around, and helping students we just dont have time to take pictures!

So if anyone out there would want to come on Wednesday nights and take pictures, contact me at the church.

So this last Wednesday was so fun we played Strobe light Techno Clothes Pin Tag, and Christmas Jeopardy! It was sweet. Then we worshiped God by screaming we are a revolution and doing some pretty sweet motions. Then we learned about becoming God bearers to others like Mary was in the Christmas story. Also we talked about how it must have been hard for Mary to tell her parents that she was still a virgin but pregnant. This last Wednesday was rocking awesome.

I can't wait for next Wednesday to come and sing and shout and Praise God. So Get ready for next week because its gonna be awesome!

Also please be in prayer for 3dyc because we want God to work and move so students, and parents please be in prayer for this trip! It can be life altering in many different ways.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Dont forget the Christmas party on the 17th, bring a gift WRAPPED, and under 5 bucks. We are going to be playing dirty bingo. Where if you get a bingo you can get a new present or steal someone else's! It's gonna be awesome!

I can't wait for tonight. We find out what to bring for 3dyc, we see who is rooming with us, we get to learn about the Christmas story its gonna be good!

Come tonight and bring a friend. We are going to be digging deep into luke 1:26 - 36. Talking about Mary and how it must have felt at a 15 year old to be having a baby. Jesus none the less. And how does that story effect us today!

Hope to see you tonight!

2 hour delay!

So this morning I wake up and get dressed and walked out to my living room and there stands Morgan. So I immediately thought she was skipping school. Because it didn't snow that much, and it wasn't even snowing this morning, so I asked Morgan if she was skipping if she could start the fires :). Then she informed me that she wasn't skipping and they had a 2 hour delay. I was flabbergasted but hey its all good to have 2 hour delays. Hope everyone had a good time sleeping in!

So tomorrow is the kickoff of the countdown till 3dyc! And I am excited, tomorrow when you walk in the door you will need 2 find things. One the packing list for 3dyc, and second the room assignments you can see who you are rooming with and who is your leader. Get excited!

Also if you come up to me tomorrow and said I read the blogspot I will give you a piece of candy! Because we need to have more people start reading this because this is where all the announcements and information will be doled out. Also I will be doing lessons, and follow ups from the sermon on here. Hope you all have a great day!

Welcome Back Welcome Back Welcome Back!

Hey there everyone!

Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving with lots of fun with families and friends. But the thanksgiving season is over and it now Christmas season! I am so pumped for these next 3 weeks of Youth Group!

This Wednesday we are going to be talking about Luke chapter 1:26 - 37. We are going to be disusing how mary might of felt when she found out she was pregnant and was going to have a baby. There are so many really cool things that God has placed in this amazing story about Jesus being born. So we are going to read through it and talk about it, and I am pumped.

Also I will have the packing list for 3dyc for you on Wednesday, and also who everyone is rooming with. So make sure you are all here so we can hang out and talk and play some really cool games!

Alright this next part is for the parents, during 3dyc I am going to (hopefully) be updating this blog twice a day with video's, pictures, and questions that you can ask your students when they get home. This will be a huge resource to you if you make it one. So please check this often and I will be posting more and more information on here because it is coming straight from my desk to yours. So please check this often I try to update this every day!

Have a great week everyone talk with you later!
