Parents,
The next few months are going to be exciting, busy, fun and challenging times for our youth. Between Mission Trip prep, the restoreWEEKEND and our regular, weekly ministries, I hope your youth are connecting with their Creator like never before.
If you have a high schooler who is interested in going to Freedom House tomorrow night, we'll meet @ GBC at 5PM and return about 7PM. E-mail me with questions.
There is a new post on the blog this week from Youth Specialties about discipline. It was written for youth workers, but is invaluable to parents as well. Take a minute and check it out after this Weekly Update.
restoreWEEKEND || March 6-8

Middle schoolers. High schoolers. Get ready for restoreWEEKEND, our weekend in-town "retreat." This is an exciting weekend focused on small group interaction, large group worship with Winn Collier (right top) and Sovatone and an exciting encounter with our Creator.

Prayer Ministry Introduction and Coffee
The prayer ministry will be hosting coffee and prayer on Sunday, February 8 @ 6:00 p.m. in the Sojourner's Class (room 211). Come learn about a creative way to be involved in prayer for the needs of our church family and visitors. This is an excellent way for your to spend the engage hour!
Until next week...
