Here we go! This is the plan for the weekend. Friday Night: Get to the church by 7pm where we'll be filling the night jammed full of amazing awesomness. Just a few of the games.... Hot, hotter and hottest... Mall Assault... Capture the flag... a BIG ole scavenger hunt and more You Tube games too! Then... we'll sleep. We'll wake up and have breakfast (parents please let us know ASAP if you can help with a cold breakfast of bagels, muffins, cream cheese, syrup, drinks) and we'll be doing a Saturday morning session on "Our Story". We'll then be piling into vans and driving to the Cambridge Center where we'll be shopping, eating and ice skating on the in-mall rink! So you'll need to bring money for lunch in the food court, 3 dollars for skating (IF you want to skate) and 3 dollars IF you need to rent skates. There will be time to shop if you are so inclined. Should be a great time! We'll be coming back to the church for dinner (Tacos... pare...

Flippin' Friday's "Distinct" edition is up this Friday night... and everyone is invited. As we all decided last week... our answer to " How do we change our city in 1 hour " was doing a free street BBQ. So make sure you're at the church by 7pm sharp as we'll be sending out teams to give out flyers to the downtown announcing the arrival of the hot dogs. Then we'll be headed out to meet some of the people in our neighborhood and give out free street meat! Parents of youth... you're invited to come and join in if you'd like to see your youth in action! Make sure you're checking the calender in the youth blog ( here ) to see what's coming up... including the youth OVERNIGHTER LOCK-IN @ The Freedom House City Center December 4th-5th. We'll be announcing the details shortly. Also coming up is the 2nd annual Youth Ugly Sweater/Gag Gift exchange Christmas Party on December 18th. Be on the lookout for a cheesy christmas sweater...
