Wednesday, Lake, Flyers, Camp

Wednesday nights
There will be no Wednesday night gathering for the teens this Wednesday as the majority of the group is here at IMPACT.  Next Wednesday Michael Cooper will be in town and will take the opportunity to lead us in a night of worship.  We will be meeting in the UCM room, along with those college students in town and anyone else who would like to join us to spend some time in Worship.  You are invited to join us as well.

Lake Day

This Sunday, June 22, is our next Lake day.  We will plan on arrival being around 1:00pm and we can wrap things up at 8:00pm.  We are asking that everyone bring drinks this time to ensure we have enough.  Girls bring something sweet and guys bring something savory.  Burgers and hotdogs provided.

Note from Mrs. Sandy for those teens who are in town:

Teens,
We need your help! Friday morning we are going to hand out info about VBS in West Circle.
Please meet us at Mrs. Glisa’s or Mrs. Amy’s at 9:30. We will be finished by 11:00.
I am excited so many teens have volunteered to help with VBS!
It will be a WILD week!!!
Please call Sandy @ 344-2606 if you have questions.


CAMP 2014
I am pumped about the growing excitement for Camp.  It is by far my favorite week of the summer. Next week I will launch the online registration and get things rolling but I just wanted to drop a little note to keep it on your minds.  July 20-25 we will be going to Fall Creek Falls to partake in some good ole summer camp fun and spiritual growth.  If I could only choose one thing for your teen to be a part of this summer, I would choose this week.  We are able to accomplish so much during our time together there and I ask that you begin now asking God to take control of that week and calling on His spirit to move hearts and minds into a deeper understanding of a real relationship with Him.  Stay tuned...

Side note from IMPACT
Junior IMPACT was awesome and Senior IMPACT has started off just as great.  The theme has to do with the distractions the world throws at us and our fight to see the person God has created us to be, not the person the world desires us to be.  Every year IMPACT seems to deliver on taking our hearts to a much needed contemplation on who we are but in particular this year I think it's timing and delivery is hitting home.... at least for me it is.  As you know, this generation of teens are consumed with distractions, one of the biggest being right in their pocket and accessible at all times.  This week we are digging through Ephesians and hopefully coming to the realization of what it really means to be ALIVE in Christ.  I just wanted to let you know what we are working through here and my hope is that you will pray specifically for our group as we unpack our hearts and pull back the veil on the reality of who we are verses who God is calling us to be.  See you Sunday!
