Youth happenings for the New Year
God is at work in the next generation, and we aim to communicate well how all can join in. For one, check out the new willamettestudents.com. There you’ll find two sites, one for the junior high students, and one for high schoolers.
Also, students and parents can signup to receive regular email updates.
You will notice the high schoolers have a few dynamic things happening:
- This Friday night (1/2) is an After New Years movie night. Vote for what we’ll watch here. (No cost.)
- Then next Weds, 1/7 we kickoff a new series: INSPIRED. We will be contemplating lives totally sold-out for Jesus and used by Him in amazing ways, starting with a look at Jim Elliot next Wednesday night.
- In less than three weeks the planned Snow Day will be upon us. (As if we didn’t already have enough snow the last few weeks? No, we didn’t!) That Monday off from school provides a great opportunity to hit the slopes of Mt. Hood Meadows, taking a bus ride together. Web signups too.
- All these events and more are on the HS Calendar
The junior high students are also revvin’ up for the New Year. Here’s what’s upcoming:
- This Sunday, Jan. 4th from 12:30-4:30 will be our first “Super Sunday” of ’09, with games and gaming, pizza and probably a movie too. Fun times at the tenthstreetchurch lounge. Bring your friends.
- The big event of the winter is the Winter Retreat at Great Wolf Lodge water resort. It will be Sunday-Monday, Jan. 18-19, the tail end of a three day weekend. The cost is set at only $80 for our middle schoolers, intended to be a fantastic time together in the water and diving into God’s Word as well.
- All these events and more are on the MS Calendar
See you next year!
