Freshwind Final info

By Dave Carrol -

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 Nelson (519 209-2537) on her cell. It will be on for the conference so she'll be the lifeline or Krissy at home for our ETA (519 720-0645).

I will have my laptop so you can email me (Dave) dave@freedomhouse.ca or Sarah (sarahmarienelson@gmail.com) and we'll get your email as well.

We will be staying Friday Night at The Carling View hotel (linked here). The church we'll be at is TACF (linked here)

OK... I think we're ready to roll. See you 5:30pm Thursday! Be ready for a challenging and uplifting weekend!

Last Week of Youth before Summer...

By -
Well, the time has not come... We are heading into the last week of youth before we take a small break for the summer holidays!!  This week will be a great night as we will be meeting out at the Reimer's home (see address below) for a campfire hang out night!! You can feel free to bring your bathing suits as there is a pool there to swim in.  But we will also be playing some great outdoor games, hanging out around the fire and chatting about the exciting NEW Youth Programs we will be running come September...  The night is going to be a great night for all so please make it a point to be there!! Please bring drinks for yourself as the leaders will be bringing everything food wise you need for a great night around the campfire :) We will be running from 7-10 this week just so everyone is aware and we will have anyone that will be going into Grade 6, 7 or 8 next year with us as well!!   See you all on Friday night.... ~ Distinct Youth Leaders 517 Mount Pleasan

Youth Night on the Streets this Friday!

By Dave Carrol -

I wanted to invite you guys from "Distinct" out this Friday Night on the streets for Flippin' Friday! It's a unique downtown experience where we serve food, meet "colorful" people and get to share the love of Jesus in a practical way. So here's the plan. Let's meet at Freedom Gate Apartments ( the old Freedom House building... NOT the mall ) at 8:45 in the common meeting area. That's through the fence on the non-parking side of the building. We'll meet as a youth ministry for 15 minutes or so and I'll go over what's going to happen that night and then we'll head upstairs to the apartment of our missionaries Steve Frank and Keith Cripps. We spend the next hour praying and hearing God for what he wants for the night. Then at 10pm... we hit the streets. Our youth leaders will be there to make sure it's a safe environment... but I will warn you... crazy things CAN happen. It would be great if you plan to be there until midn

By Dave Carrol -

Have you ever been at Aunt Beatrice's house for Thanksgiving and you're just about to sit down at the table for the feast when someone shouts out in horror... "Oh NO... I forgot the CRANBERRIES!!" This Friday Night at Youth... we make sure that this will not happen to homes in Brantford. How? It's RAK Night! We'll be meeting at the Freedom House City Center at 7pm and heading out into town to do Random Acts of Kindness by giving away Cranberries and through it, reminding people that God LOVES them. After... we'll be headed back to the church for some fun and snacks (so bring money for tuck shop!). Make sure your ride picks you up before the mall doors get locked at 10pm! See ya then!
