Youth Fellowship (grades 8-12)

The latest communication February 2020

Hello Youth, Friends and Parents:

A few updates:

Laramie Project to be presented by the Hilliard Arts Council – dates are April 17 – 19 and 24 – 26. The theater is in Old Hilliard, (near the MacKoy center). This production would be for older youth and adults. Let us know if you have an interest and dates your are available. We will select a date where the most individuals can attend.

Always looking for theater suggestions.

The opportunity to participate in the June 6-12 Youth Mission Immersion Project, Maxwell Street Presbyterian Church, Lexington, Kentucky is immeasurable. Firsthand experience is irreplaceable in making a difference and I believe will stay with your children as they grow. This is a great opportunity as many Youth missions require a minimum age of 14. This mission involves grades 6-12 for the 2020-2021 school year.

March 1, 15, 22, 29 and April 5
Equipping has a 5-week Lent series. Similar to the Advent lessons, this will include three age groups. We are in need of volunteers for the older youth (grades 6-12) classes. It is only a one week commitment and there is a book that is easy to follow. Our youth are deserving of many volunteers to teach as we all have different teaching styles. Please come out of your comfort zone or share your talent. By that time, the weather may be appropriate for holding the class on the turquoise table or a nearby park (Pierce Field). A reminder that we need both a male and female adult in the class to be in compliance with Child Protection.

Reminders:

January 30 – Open Shelter Lunch Packing
February 7 – “Aladdin” movie in the lounge at 6:30 pm
February 9 and 16 – two Sundays in February – appropriate for youth and adults “Greenhouse Gases and Emissions Stewardship” by Alaina Engdahl – you are missing out if you have not attended one of Alaina’s classes. She is an exceptional teacher and knowledgeable.
March 8 – A Conversation about Gun Control led by Glen Schmidt – this is appropriate for older youth and parents
April 26 – May 2 (Rummage sale is May 1 and 2) – will require numerous volunteers all week (moving items from the 3rd floor, pricing, setting up displays, working, tear-down, etc.)

Please also let us know what events you can provide assistance or wish to participate.  It helps with planning.  We know that everyone is busy.  A quick email or phone call is appreciated.

Thank you.
