Parents! Check in here from time to time to get special event details, see updates on youth, and check the topics we are looking at in Bible studies.
Good day parents. If the character of your kids reflects on you as a parent, let me add to the voices saying that you must be doing something right. what great kids we have in this group. Remember that we are in your corner as a leadership team if there is any way we can support you.
A great resource! Hey, If you are interested in some resources to keep informed on some of the cultural and media influences surrounding youth culture, here is a link for you. http://www.cpyu.org/ Walt Mueller runs this great resource (C.enter for P.arent Y.outh U.nderstanding) that gives great insight into media, youth trends, cultural shifts, and lots of other great information. It’s updated in a timely way, so those of us who care about youth, but are no longer up on all the latest trends, can have a good window to what’s happening today. Take a look
thanks for all your support

Thanks for those who made it to the baseball event last night! It was great to see your support of the youth group, and showing that the parents can still hold their own in baseball (at least untill the light fades).
The Bible study, though a little shortened due to bugs and light, looked at how Joseph’s life can be an example to us as we face new beginnings. -Our circumstance doesn’t determine our outcome. -Even though things change, God is our foundation and he is faithful.

Hey Parents, you are a huge part of making the youth group a success. We’d love to get the year started off by having an event that involves you and your kids having a good time together. You are invited, encouraged, begged even, to join us on Sept 8 for an evening of baseball (no skill required), snack, and a bible study.

Thanks for your pickups/drop offs and support for the camp out this past weekend. Things went well and we had a good time. The beach was a lot of fun regardless of the weather, and the camping went well with some good food (mmm banana boats) and some games of football, some night games, capture the flag, and exploring. Our sunday morning session had some singing and a bible study looking at how love is the foundation for all we want to do together as a youth group (1 corinthians 13). We can do no great things; only small things with great love. -Mother Theresa
