Broad Street Youth Weekly Update 11/15/11

Hello Youth, Parents, and Leaders!

Just a couple of announcements this week:
  • Be sure to check out our new youth newsletter coming to you in the mail.  It has everything you need to know from now until December and includes dates to help you plan 2012!
  • Tomorrow is the Early Bird Deadline for Warmth in Winter!  We already have a bunch of youth who have registered.  SPACE IS LIMITED!  I'm serious about this!  I've booked a block of hotel rooms.  When they are full, our trip will be closed because there are no more rooms available.  Register early to save money and secure a place on this meaningful event!
  • This Sunday, Nov. 20 - GLOW meets at 4pm - Youth who are writing video segments should bring them at that time.  All 7th-8th grade youth are invited to attend.  
  • High school small groups meet this Sunday as well - Boys at 4pm at Alex Everley's House.  Girls at 6:30pm at Sheryl Bacon's house.  Contact me for directions to either location.
  • Check out our new youth ministry website!  It's still under construction but will be live and linked to the church's web page soon.  http://www.broadstreetyouth.blogspot.com/
Grace and Peace,
Wes

    Hello!

    Here are this week's announcements:

    • This Sunday, Nov. 6 - Our parent meeting will be in the Chapel (to the left of the Narthex, near the Sanctuary).  We will begin the meeting at 9:40am.  We have much information to cover, please plan to attend!
    • Also this Sunday, Nov. 6 is our Youth Campfire, Cookout and Hayride.  We will meet at 5pm at the Pavilion at Hurt Lodge and will be finished by 7pm.  Youth are asked to bring $5 to help with the cost of the hayride and food - hot dogs, marshmallows, and drinks.  This is gonna be a fun night!
