Next Wednesday (8/31)

Saturday, August 27th, 2011

Hi guys!!

This upcoming wednesday we will be brainstorming about ideas for the year!! We’ll be talking about Wednesday night activities, service projects and discussions to Sunday School topics and deciding whether or not we want to do Common Ground again (cuz, you know, its the most boring event of the year *sarcasm*). So please, calling all high schoolers, EVEN OUR NEWEST CHERUBS, the freshmen. But please only come if you have a brain stuffed full of ideas (that comes with a BIG, FAT JK, cuz my brain’s as empty as the US’s bank account and I will most certainly be there).

This is YOUR program and we need YOU GUYS to help shape it, so PLEASE join me as we plan a most wonderful new year :)

More logistical details to come. Stay tuned.

Love,

Your lovely youth assistant,

Tyler

P.S. Make sure to sign up for LABOR DAY RETREAT this weekend, it’ll be a BLAST! Please talk to any of the youth assistants, Tom, or Molly if you have any questions about registration.

upcoming events for the youth

Monday, March 28th, 2011

Yo comrades,

Hope everybody has been doing well. This upcoming Wednesday, March the 30th, will be a Bethel Youth potluck/game night. Be sure to bring your favorite food to share with the group and be ready to play some rockin’ games. We will meet in the youth room at 6 30 in the PM.

The following Sunday, we will be writing letters. Meet in the youth room at 9 30.

The Wednesday following the following Sunday (yes I just confused you), we will be off to dinner at 530 and then meeting back in the youth room for one of our famous discussions. Be ready to discuss.

Some reminders

Common Ground practices start at 7:15 in the music room, unless you are involved in drama or are a musician. See Rita (music) or Jillian (drama) for the correct time to arrive.

Be sure to start fundraising for the mexico trip. We leave April 16th so get busy.

The first Common Ground tour payment of 75 dollars is due anytime. Though this sounds lenient, I will personally be hunting you down if you fail to pay in a timely manner.

Just kidding.

But seriously don’t make me coming looking for you.

Jesus loves you.

Hope to see everybody soon,

Love, Jeff

Update for Sunday, May 2nd

Saturday, May 1st, 2010

Hi Friends,
Sunday, May 2nd is going to be an awesome day! To start with, Katlynn (and Adam, Jillian, and Tom) is leading a U2 communion worship service at Prince of Peace.

On the Bethel front, our Sr High Youth Group will lead the congregation in a letter writing campaign on hot topical issues. Also, Matty, Kristen and Molly will give a recap about the Mission to Mexico trip last month. Please wear your T-shirts if you went on the trip.

Common Ground is singing as well. Meet in the Music & Education Room as 10am (band at 9:40am) to warm up for the service. Don’t be late.

Peace, Tom

Time to hit the road from Mexico

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

HI Friends,
Thanks for all the prayers of support and safety. We really felt them. It has been a great trip with many chances to grow in our relationship with God, our new friends to the south, and each other. We spent the day digging and moving dirt again yesterday and finished with a yummy dinner, including Lobster for some.

We’re just cleaning up at the Posada before heading out around 7pm. Now comes the biggest challenge of the trip: Navigating the ever changing border exits. Should be fun :)

We’ll plan on seeing many of you tonight and look forward to sharing some of our experiences with the entire congregation on Sunday, May 2nd.

Peace Out for now, Tom

Mexico at 8:45am on Tuesday, April 13th

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

HI again,
Yesterday was a rain out day for physical work, but one filled with stretching ourselves in the communities. We got a guided tour of the Tijuana Cultural Center, saw a IMAX film about Egypt, checked out the local mall, had lunch at Cafe Mole, visited Puerto Nuevo to spend a little time and money with the local vendors, and then a night of fun and food back at the Posada.

Luckily, today looks much better in relation to the weather and we’ll be spending the day beginning the foundation work of another house. The one we worked at on Sunday is still to muddy to work on and will be continued by the next group down.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we complete our final work day and prepare to come home tomorrow.

Peace to you all, Tom
