Be A World Changer: One Piece At A TimeSeptember/2011
TSPC YOUTH
Greetings!

 

Its that time again to get geared up for TSPC Youth on Sunday evenings.  A warm welcome to all our sixth grade families who will be receiving our monthly e-newsletter for the first time.  Prior to the first Sunday of each month an email and Facebook post on the TSPC Youth Page will share the happenings at Youth in the month.  Browse through for articles about youth or raising youth, youth events and news in our community.  I hope this tool of communication is helpful in keeping you informed of TSPC's Youth Ministry.

 

 

Grace and Peace, April
