Final total is in...

I'm proud to say that we met our goal of collecting over $100 for our Christmas gift to the poor.  Last night the AMP and JR HIGH groups added another $27.75 to make our total...

$117.49

Thank you to all for your contributions.  We will be choosing our gift at the end of the year youth group party - BATTLE 2012.  Sunday night, December 30, from 6:30pm-midnight.  For all 7th-12th graders.

89.74


Well tonight we had a lot of fun at our SR HIGH Christmas Party.  We also collected money for our Christmas gifts going to poverty overseas.  It was the last time that SR HIGH would collect and we brought in another $27.53 to up our total to $89.74!

We are going to give one final chance to AMP and JR HIGH this Wednesday night at the Christmas party.  We only need another $10.26 to make $100!!!!  WE CAN DO IT!

There are many gifts that we can choose from them - including getting a bunch of ducks for a family.  A duck or multiple ducks would be a huge benefit to a family in poverty as ducks can lay eggs and provide much food for a family in need!  Just one example of how we can make an impact with a little CHANGE!

Awesome!

SR HIGH Christmas Party


That's right - this coming Sunday, December 16 - from 6:30pm-8:00pm we will be having our Senior High Christmas Party.

We will have treats, games, gifts and so much fun!

Also, remember it will be the last night that we collect money for our Christmas gift to the poor.  So far we have collected $62.21.  Bring your extra change or coins and let's get as much as possible!

See you Sunday!

Mello Yello or Barq's? That is the question...

As you know our pop machine changed about a year or two ago when we added water to the options.  Now recently Coca-Cola has allowed us to add blue Powerade to the machine.  I like this because it is another non-carbonated option.

With this new coming change, we may have to remove one of the carbonated options.  The lowest seller is Sprite, but we would like to keep that as a non-caffeinated carbonated option.  Are you still with me?  So the next two lowest sellers are Mello Yello and Barq's Root Beer.  Both are great options.  Both seem to be well liked by you - the students.














So I thought we would have a poll.  On the right side of the blog there is a poll question and opportunity for you to vote for your choice between the two.  We may have to say goodbye to one - so vote as often as you'd like for your favorite.

Youth Group Cancelled for tonight - December 9

We are NOT having youth group tonight.

As much as I'd love to see you all tonight, we are in the middle of a small snow storm.  The roads are slick and some cars have already been in the ditch.  Especially with many students driving themselves to youth group, we just do not want to risk anyone getting in trouble on the road.

Youth Leaders - our meeting tonight is cancelled also.  I'll be in touch this week about what is next.

So for all you students - we will see you next Sunday night!  Remember it will be our SR HIGH Christmas Party.  Bring a wrapped white elephant gift to exchange.  And bring your extra change and coins for our final collection for our Christmas gift for the poor.

If you have any questions you can email or call Pastor Tom.

Thanks!

44.64


You may or may not have heard that we are collecting money for a cause this Christmas season!  One of the students of our youth group (Falyn) has challenged us to collect some extra cash and choose a gift to give to someone in need across the world.  We started 2 weeks ago and collected $19.98 without any warning.  Then last Sunday we collected again and received $24.66 more!  So after two weeks we have a total of $44.64.

We will collect one more time next week.  So look around the house for some extra change and bring it next time you come to youth group.

We also will be choosing our gift from a catalog of possibilities.  There are many things that our money can go towards and we look forward to blessing someone in need!

Join us this Christmas season in giving!
