First off, the youth want to thank our church family once again for your faithful giving that made our Youth Fun Day possible. We had so many students attend that we couldn’t all fit on board the church buses! What an awesome “problem” to encounter! It was great to hear the laughter and see all the connections forming as the youth tackled the obstacle courses, battled it out in laser tag, and even just chatted on the drives to and from our destinations. God is clearly working to grow our community of believers up in the Rafters, and we ask for continued prayers for our youth, youth leaders, and our future NextGen Pastor.
Looking ahead to February, the youth on Sunday mornings will be continuing our study of the life of David. Then, on Wednesday evenings at 6 pm, we will be wrapping up our Galatians Bible study. We invite all middle- and highschoolers to join us for these Bible study sessions, and of course, we encourage you to bring your friends.
Kicking off our events for February is our Super Bowl Potluck Party! We’d like to invite all the youth AND their families to join us up in the Rafters on February 8 at 5 pm for the Big Game (or just to hang) and ask that you bring along a snack, appetizer, or dessert to share. We’ll handle the drinks.
Later in February, our crew will be heading to the Creve Coeur Ice Rink to try our hand at ice skating. (2030 Winter Olympics here we come! LOL!) Please be on the lookout for more details about this event up in the Rafters.
