This week at youth - Living Nativity - Bring your friends!!

Hello all you fantastic Youth!! This week will be a bit different for us as you all must know the Living Nativity is running all weekend!!  We will be meeting at Harmony Square for 6:50 and watching the 7:00 show together.  After the show ends (around 7:45 or 8:00) youth will officially be over, howver you can feel free to hang out in the square and participate in the other festivities that will be running.  Please be sure your parents are aware that the official youth time frame is from 7-8 and not 7-9 as it usually is.  Be sure to dress appropriately as we will have no access to the church as the cast will be hanging out there! VERY IMPORTANT NOTE - Next week will be out last week of Youth for 2015...  We will be having our annual Christmas party (with a slight twist).  We are going to do a "Christmas Sock Exchange" which looks like this... - Go to the dollar store and buy a pair of funky looking sock (MUST BE NEW) - Fill one of the socks with candy and priz

If you can please let us know if your coming and if you are bringing friends that would be great as we need to ensure we have appropriate transportation to and from Brant Park :) Looking forward to a great night together!! ~ Distinct Youth Leaders
