Dirty Feet Retreat, Oct. 13-15

Hey, Believers (that’s you, junior high youth group)! Sign up today for EWALU’s Dirty Feet Retreat, October 13-15. Your cost is only $25 for a full weekend of fun at EWALU Bible Camp. We’ll head up to camp on Friday night and return on Sunday. In between, we’ll play games, sing great camp songs, do some Bible studies, enjoy the cool fall weather at beautiful EWALU, make new friends, and generally have a fun time. Download a registration form here or talk to Matt or Charlie to get a form. Registration forms and your $25 are due by Sunday, October 8.

The theme for the retreat is “Face the Storm!” based on 2 Timothy 1:7, which reads, “God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love and self-control.” God equips us with the power, love, and self-control we need to face our fears, to face the unknown, to Face the Storm!

If you have any questions about the retreat, send us an email or talk to one of us at church.

Campfire

Last night we had a lil' campfire out at MacBride Nature Center. We (well, some of us) roasted some Jumbo Jumbos, almost played catch with the football, had some s'mores and very old chocolate chip cookies, and sang camp songs around the fire. It was a beautiful night! So many stars... I really had a nice time.

Our next sr. high youth group activity is a movie night in the Loft on Sunday, Oct. 8. Any movie requests? We'll order some pizza, too. We're also planning to play paintball on Oct. 22, though we still have to confirm that with Mr. Paintball. We'll let you know for sure.

For the jr. high youth group, our next activity is the Dirty Feet Retreat at EWALU, Oct. 13-15. It will be a great weekend--games, music, Bible studies... Talk to Matt or Charlie for more details or to get a registration form.

Check back often to see our upcoming events, maybe read a short devotional posted by one of your Youth Directors (Charlie or Matt), read about a past youth group event, suggest an activity, or to share whatever youth ministry-related thing might be on your mind.
