MINISTRY WITH YOUTH NEWS
PB&J
(The News Spread For Youth)
Attention all youth and parents! PB&J is underway! Yes it does include peanut
butter and jelly but if you don’t like jelly you can bring your own health food.
Among the recent delicious combinations brought up were – bananas, potato chips
and pickles. So bring your own palatable additive or be traditional. Remember
every Sunday at 6:30 pm in the Youth Room. (Follow the bread crumbs) We also
have the following plans working for other events:
October 3rd – Youthquake Live at
Celebration Church on Deerwood. We will be carpooling and will leave at about
6:30. Parents invited. (You actually get to sit in another room away from the
noise and have some coffee while you watch the youth on large screen tv’s.
October 11th – Heritage Day – We need
your help with the games. Jason is directing this part as well as the
puppeteers. Setting up the air filled trampoline, as well as taking tickets are
just a few of the things we need help with.

Skate Station. Skating starts at 7 pm. We will meet at 6:30 outside the rink.
