At COTS Youth we aim to be real in our faith, have fun, & meet each person where they are.
Every youth can belong.
Dear <<First Name>>,
COVID Update:  We aren't going to be meeting indoors yet, but as long as weather permits, we will meet every other week for Lunch & Connect outside at the church.  Be sure to wear your mask and keep 6' distancing.  If you're not feeling well, please stay home, rest up, and join us when you're feeling better.  

Belonging

Sr High Lunch & Connect

 

   Who:   You and your friends in grades 9-12.
   
   RSVP:  Greatly appreciated, not required - to PizonPete@aol.com

   What:  To which groups or organizations do you belong?  How do you know?  Are there membership requirements?  Which "belongings" do we use to form and solidify our identity?

Come back to In-Person Senior High Lunch & Connect as we delve into these questions between ourselves, Luke 15, and our Heavenly Parent, God.  You bring you, we'll bring the pizza, fruit, and drinks (Please let Pete know if you're coming!)  PizonPete@aol.com - See you Sunday!  (It's ok to bring your own food, if you prefer.)
 
   When:  This Sunday, Apr 11, 12:15-1:30 pm

   Why:   Being together is good.  Knowing how Jesus transforms lives is good.  Living a transformed life is good.

   Where:  AT THE CHURCH - outdoors in the space with the gaga pit (near the carport entrance).  We have 4 patio heaters putting out 192,000 BTUs, and a couple of big tarps to block the wind.  Wear your mask and bring a camp chair.  Dress to be outside! 
   If it rains: we'll do it on Zoom.  Any decision to use Zoom will be made Sunday morning - stay tuned to the GroupMe chat or text Pete Evangelista (Mr E) at 216-647-4774 to ask.

   What to bring:
       1)  Your Bible to mark up
       2)  Something to mark it up with
       3)  Camp chair for your comfort

Save the Date!

Youth Mission Trip 2021 is a GO.

July 10-16, 2021


There are many details to work out, but here's what we know:
   It will be in Cleveland. 
   COTS will be HQ.
We will sleep in our homes.

The COTS Youth Mission Trip is about loving God and loving our neighbor - putting our faith into action - and is for youth entering grades 8 and up, including high school grads and adult leaders.

The experience will be different than other years, and in many ways it will be the same.  There's a lot of potential to do new, great things that aren't possible in other years.
One thing is certain - God will move in us and through us!

Something to Think About...


Have you heard the bit about "doubting Thomas"?  He's the disciple that demanded ID from Jesus before accepting that he was who he said he was.

But [Thomas] replied, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands, put my finger in the wounds left by the nails, and put my hand into his side, I won’t believe.”
--- John 20:25b (CEB)


What about us?  We have birth certificates and school ID's and even state ID's when we get old enough, but none of those have an official holy stamp that says "Jesus follower".  Take a minute to talk with God about Jesus followers.  Whether you are one or not, what's a true, official Jesus follower look and act like?  Do you fit the description?  Do you want to?
