IGNITE STOCK SALE:
 

Lee and Drue Taylor will be working a table in the narthex before and after worship with any students who will join them to sell stock in our youth ministry this coming Sunday morning. We will be selling stock during MYF this Sunday night as well, which the kids had a blast with last Sunday! I hope your students can make it!

Finally, please note that there will not be youth on July 4th, as that is the day before Ignite Summer Breakout.

IGNITE SUMMER BREAKOUT: JULY 5-10th


Ignite Student Ministries is preparing for our summer retreat, Ignite Summer Breakout! This in-town retreat runs July 5–10th and will include worship, service, prayer, games, day trips, and much more!
 

Ignite Summer Breakout will be held at Camp Lee. We will spend the first three days leading a program called “Parables in the Park.” This will be a lot like a traditional VBS with an emphasis on God's grace through the parables. Students will prepare for the retreat together throughout the month of June. Our program in Zinn Park will be a partnership with the YMCA.

 

We will do team building activities at Camp and take a few day trips. I am particularly excited that we will travel to Montgomery with members of our Church and Society committee on Thursday, July 8th, where we will tour the National Memorial for Peace and Justice and the Legacy Museum. Students will learn about our legacy of racial conflict and the ways we can faithfully participate in contemporary conversations about racial and social justice. This will be a part of the week's emphasis on cultivating faith that makes a difference in our everyday lives.

 

Our last day will be a trip to a water park in Alabama. With all our programming, hiring a speaker and worship leader for the night lessons, and our lodging at Camp Lee, this trip is $200 per student, but there are plenty of scholarship opportunities available for a free or reduced registration. Do not hesitate to ask about these – as money should never be the reason a student misses out on a youth trip. 

 

Finally, this is an in-town retreat – please contact me if your student is only available for part of this time, but you want them to join us. We will work with you on partial attendance – I would always rather your child or grandchild attend part of this event than miss it entirely because of one conflict.

 

This will be a busy, fun, and fulfilling week! I am certain I will need your help making this event the success that our students deserve for it to be. That starts with signing up your kids and telling other parents about it. I am beyond excited for this trip, and I am happy to discuss it with you at any time!

 

Contact me directly by email to reserve your child’s spot.
