BSUMC YOUTH Weekly Update - January 31

Scholarships
It's time to begin applying for the Broad Street Memorial Scholarship and the N*Light*N Scholarships, available to current and former youth attending college in the fall.  Pick up a form with scholarship requirements in the church office.  


Super Bowl Tailgate Party

This Sunday, February 5 is our Youth Super Bowl Tailgate Party from 3-5pm.  Bring your favorite tailgate snack to share - I'll be grilling hot wings again!  Don't forget a sack chair to sit on and bring footballs, frisbees, etc.  INVITE A FRIEND!  There will be some very nice door prizes!  If you want to participate in the secret you-know-what, be in the church parking lot at 1:45pm!  All middle school youth are asked to plan to be here at 1:45pm!

Event Fees
We do our best to keep the costs of our events down.  We also understand that sometimes, fees are due at times that may be inconvenient for our families.  Please don't let an immediate lack of family funds prevent your youth from participating in our youth events!  We have scholarship funding available, whether a patial or full scholarship is needed.  All you have to do is contact me (Wes Pardue) and request a scholarship!   


N*Light*N Trip - Atlanta
N*Light*N is heading to Atlanta February 25-26!  We very much need youth to sign up early!!  As part of our trip we are going to the Georgia Aquarium.  In order to get the group discount, we must finalize our order 2 weeks in advance.  That means the early bird deadline is February 8, ONE WEEK FROM TOMORROW!  The price of this trip goes up after that date!  Forms were sent home last week and Ms. Jan is mailing them to all families this week.  You can also find the permission form online at the youth webpage

 Sign up today!


MULCH MADNESS for Missions!
Each Sunday in February, we will be taking orders for bags of cypress mulch to be delivered and spread on Saturday, March 10.  We still need youth and adults to host our order station between services and Sunday school.  Please contact me to sign up for one of our open times.  We also need lots of adult and youth helpers on March 10!  Please contact me now!  If you can't help on March 10, there may be other ways you can do your part to support this fundraiser for our missions and service projects.
Chick-Fil-A Spirit Night
Our next Chick-Fil-A Spirit Night is Monday,February 6.  From 4-8pm, Chick-Fil-A will dontate a portion of their proceeds from every customer who mentions Broad Street or Unity Center.  Our youth will invite the congregation to participate by handing out reminder stickers following the services this Sunday!
