End of School Pool Party!
School's out!  The Everley's are hosting our End-of-the-Year Pool Party on May 20 from 4pm-7pm.  Burgers and hot dogs will be provided.  Guys bring a 2-liter drink.  Girls bring chips or a dessert.  Everyone bring a towel and sunscreen.  No teenie bikinis please!  Directions: Head out N. Lee Highway.  Turn left onto King Den (there's a barn on the corner).  At the "T" intersection, turn left onto Bell Crest.  Their home is the last house on the left (right before the cul-de-sac). 
Contest - Reply to this email/webpost/or facebook post saying that you read it and be entered to win $50 off the summer event of your choice!  Drawing will be held on May 13 in Connections Worship. 

Spend Mother's Day...with your MOM!!
This is a big weekend!  Love on your mom a bit.  We've had a "CREDO" retreat tentatively scheduled on our long range calendar for this weekend.  Mary Ketchersid and I have both agreed that it needs to be rescheduled for the fall.  ALSO, our Johnston Woods Workday scheduled for this Saturday will be rescheduled as Johnston Woods doesn't have any work that needs to be done at this time (by a youth group)!  Take your mom out to dinner, do the dishes and mow the yard without being asked a million times.  And for goodness sake, clean your room!

What is Assembly?
Assembly is a hundred-year-old-plus ministry of the Holston Conference UMC!  This year, Assembly will be at Tennessee Wesleyan College.  This is an amazing opportunity to connect deeply with Christ.  It is without a doubt a favorite of the youth who have attended in the past. Youth stay in college dorms and eat in the cafeteria.  We will have a daily speaker & worship music, a fantastic concert, very meaningful family group time, lots of organized fun and plenty of free time.  Youth will also sign up for daily interest groups that include the option to explore worship arts such as song writing, acting, art, photography, etc.  Register through Broad Street and receive $40 off the registration fee.  More details can be found on the forms tab above.
