Youth Group Activities

Our next Bible Study will be Monday, November 14th at 7:00 pm, we'll be discussing the story of Noah in chapters 5-9 of Genesis - read them before coming and have your questions ready! (high school).

On November 21 at 6:00pm for grades 7-12, we’ll be doing a Praying with Color session. This is an interesting and fun way to pray that goes beyond words and into the realms of art and color. Pizza will be provided as well, so you won’t have to worry about supper! The prayer will take half an hour or less, but I’ll leave the youth room open for fun and games until about 8:00. See you there!

On December 3, Tony Melendez will be at the Net Ministries Lifeline Mass, and we’ll be sharing a bus with St. Tim’s. More info to come, or check out http://www.netusa.org/events/

Also, info for the youth mission trip this summer is still on the gathering space table!
