OK here we go. The final details. We will be meeting at The Nelson's House ( 4 Tanglewood linked here ) at 5:30 sharp Thursday. Please eat before you come. *** Note... whether you've been sponsored or if you paid the full amount to Sarah you are still responsible to bring your own money for food for the weekend. 40$ is the recommended*** On the email I'll attach the FW schedule for the weekend. To bring or not to bring: - Bring a blanket/sleeping bag with you both for sleeping at the Haley/Nelson's AND there are no chairs in the main sessions at Freshwind. You lay a blanket on the floor during the sessions. So that's pretty cool. - Bring pillows and sleeping/shower stuff... enough for 2 overnights. - DO NOT bring your ipods or laptops or cell phone - DO bring your Bible and Notebooks -Swimming stuff in case there is time Parents can pick your kids up at Midnight at The Nelson's (4 Tanglewood). If it's a different time, please get in touch with Sarah

Youth Bigger or Better night

Image
It's the 3rd annual Youth Bigger or Better night! Last time we did this... Krissy wound up face down on a mattress ! Remember? It was awesome then and it's going to be awesome tonight! So you'll be getting something very small (like a penny or a thimble or my left ear) and your van load will be dispatched into the city to trade that object for something BIGGER or BETTER. All you have to do is get that object back into the City Center by the set time... and the BIGGEST or BEST is going to win! See you 7pm tonight! I'll also have all the information you'll need to take home to your parents about the Freshwind Youth Conference April 1st-3rd. It will be very important to get that money to Sarah ASAP so we can get registered!

Youth Service this Friday

Hi guys... as we get ready for the Freshwind Conference coming up over the Easter Weekend, we're going to be entering a season where I believe God is calling our youth group to worship and really dig in to get closer to him... for real... for ourselves... FOR REAL. This Friday we're going to be talking about... "You were good but now you're bad but you're really good" Including an appearance from her: Looking forward to what God wants to do in us... PLEASE BRING YOUR BIBLES as you're going to need them! 7pm at the Freedom House City Center. Oh by the way... check this out... I think WE could do this!
