Youth Ministry

Outdoor Movie Night, November 29 at 5pm

High school and middle school youth are invited to meet at the church for a special showing of Elf (Common Sense Media Review) in the church driveway.  Instead of a drive-in format, participants are asked to bring a chair and dress comfortably for the weather.  Popcorn, hot chocolate, and bottled water will be provided.  Movie runtime is 97 minutes so we anticipate finishing at 6:45pm. 

As usual we will be following our church's Guidelines for Resuming In Person Youth Group Activities

  1. In person youth group activities are held outside and ordinarily limited to one hour per event.
  2. Non-contact temperature checks of all participants are taken upon arrival by a designated youth leader.  Those with a temperature of 100.3 degrees Fahrenheit or less are allowed to participate.
  3. All participants are required to wear masks.  Masks can only be removed to eat or drink (and with adherence to social distancing requirements of maintaining a distance of six feet away from anyone outside one’s family).
  4. Physical contact is prohibited (high fives, fist bumps, hugs, etc.).
  5. Those who are sick, especially vulnerable to COVID-19, or uncomfortable with in person activities should inform a youth leader and only participate in virtual youth group activities.

Advent Devotional

Looking for an online or app based daily devotional for the season of Advent?  Check out www.d365.org or search d365 in your app store.  The Following the Star Advent devotional series follows the common liturgical season of Advent, running from the end of November to the beginning of January.  Featuring Scripture, prayer, and reflection accompanied by gentle music (be sure to turn the sound on!), these brief devotionals are written especially for youth and young adults, but can help us all reflect daily on how God is work in our lives and world.  Did you bookmark the website or download the app?  If so, please let James Rogers know, so he can send you a special treat for you to enjoy as you Follow the Star!

Backyard S'mores

On Sunday, December 6 from 5-6pm the high school and middle school youth are enjoying separate backyard s'mores events.  Locations will be announced in next week's youth ministry email.  All youth participants need to have a completed 2020-2021 Youth Permission and Release Statement on file.  As usual we will be following our church's Guidelines for Resuming In Person Youth Group Activities.

Youth Sunday, February 7, 2021

On Sunday, November 15 the youth group gathered by Zoom and chose next year's Youth Sunday theme:  TREE.  Just think of all of the stories in the Bible that involve a tree:  Adam and Eve eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, Isaiah tells us that the trees of the field will clap their hands, Zacchaeus climbs a Sycamore tree to see Jesus, and more.  Want to help lead worship for our entire congregation?  Check out the available leadership parts and sign up today.
