    Promotion Sunday/Youth & Family BBQ

    On Sunday, August 22, our incoming 6th graders will be joining us for the first time in youth group! This is always an exciting time in the life of our youth, as new faces come in, but it is also a time where new leaders are formed. After the second service that morning, the youth and their families are invited to join us in the courtyard for a BBQ, games, and a time to enjoy the end of summer, and also get familiar with the new faces of our group. You can sign up in the Rafters or shoot Kyle a message. We hope you will join us!

    Sarah Baker – THANK YOU!!!

    We are quickly approaching a bittersweet time that we all knew was coming. In just a few weeks, our Summer Intern, Sarah Baker, will be leaving to go back to Kirksville, MO and finish her undergrad. Sarah has faithfully served our youth as the Summer Intern for the last 3 years, and this year is unfortunately her last. We will miss having her over the summers, but we are so excited to see where God takes her in her ministry. We are so blessed to have had her building relationships and serving with our students. If you see her, please take time to thank her for all of her hard work she has given to this group of students!

    DNOW

    Thank you so much, Church, for your support of DNOW this past weekend! This weekend was not possible without your generosity, prayer, and support of our youth ministry. We had 30 students this weekend, 11 of which were friends brought by our students. They all learned together about how to live in the world without the filters that the world places on us, and instead how to live more like Jesus. I am so excited to see how God will use this weekend in the lives of our students moving forward!

    Minneapolis Mission Trip Report

    Thank you so much, Church, for your prayers and support of our students and leaders who served in Minneapolis this last week. I am happy to report this was one of our best mission trips to date, that I can remember – from serving as a student here, to being a college leader, to now serving the church as Director of Student Ministries. I am so proud of our students and the hard work they produced, but I am prouder of the community they continued to build here, between themselves. Seeing them interact and work together, laugh and learn as a group, and even play silly games together, meant more than you can know. These kids built a bond together that will continue to strengthen our youth group for years to come. Please pray in the weeks ahead that we will grow together and see the fruits of the work we did. Also pray for our partner church, Alfa y Omega, and the city of Minneapolis, that God will continue to work and move there!

    DNOW Updates!

    I am so excited for our upcoming DNOW weekend that is happening July 23-25. Continue to pray for this weekend and that God will move through our students. I am so excited to announce that this year we are offering this event to be FREE to all guests that wish to attend! So, if your student has always wanted to invite a friend or two to DNOW, but has been hesitant because of the cost, NOW is the time to encourage them to come!
