Hi everyone,
I wanted to write a letter to all of the
families in our youth group and those with students coming up and fill you in
on our plans through the summer.
This year we are inviting the new 6th
grade students to join us as early as May 21st which is our End
of the Year Party which is simply a time to eat lots of food and play
lots of games. This will be from 6-8 pm as will the next week when we welcome
anyone who can help us go throughout our neighborhoods dropping off fliers for
this summer’s day camp.
For the new 6th grade parents, if
you haven’t already seen from the gas station we use on Sundays to sell gas
cards for Holiday and KWIK TRIP, we have made almost $6000 in profit over the
last two years selling prepaid gas cards. Your students and quite often a
parent are welcome to sign up to work the gas station every Sunday and as well,
feel free to buy gas from it and earn 5-10% profit off of it as well.
As we enter into the fall, we will again offer
a lot of other fundraisers as we plan for two big trips next year (the Mexico
Mission Trip and the Youth Convention in Colorado). Feel free to also use the
fundraisers for summer camps and any of the retreats we participate during the
year as well.
Over the next few weeks we transition into
summer mode for our youth group and our summer schedule is much more casual,
relational and event oriented. We would love to have your students join us
then.
We will meet on the following nights for youth
group from 6:30-8:30 pm with late night movies to follow on 6/11 and 7/16
-
June 11 (Late Night Movie After)
-
June 25 (Food Shelf Scavenger Hunt)
-
July 2
-
July 16 (Late Night Movie After)
-
August 13 (Messy Night)

August 20
This summer we have a number of really fun day
trips and one overnighter for your students to consider. I have included a link
to a poster which has all of our events and meeting times at http://pastormark.wordoflifelbc.org/2014/05/summer-of-2014.html
Our hope is that our students will connect with
us, grow with us, invite their friends to check us out while we have a good
time together and as we look into God’s Word in a safe place.
For all off
campus events, all students must have a new 2014/2015 release form completed. I
have included that here as well.
Blessings, Pastor Mark
