Sun., Jan. 19 -  Youth Group Discussion Night - Invisible Child: Dasani's Homeless Life. What would it be like to a child who is homeless?

Let's get together to talk about child homelessness through Dasani's eyes and think about what we might be able to do to help in our own city.

Join us at the Jensen's home for a cozy night of playing games, catching up and listening to music. Snacks and hot chocolate will be served.

Pastors' Class

First meeting is Wednesday, January 29 from 7:00-8:30 p.m. in the Youth Center. The purpose of Pastors' Class is to provide time, space, and tools to help the students more clearly name their identity as Christians and their connection to this faith community. The sessions will help the youth identify what God is doing in the world; reflect on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus; explore how this impacts who and how they are in the world. Students will have the opportunity to celebrate these insights and transformation through the ritual of baptism and church membership on Palm Sunday, Apr. 13, followed by communion on Maundy Thursday, Apr. 17.
Pastor's Class meets on the following Wednesdays from 7:00-8:30 p.m. in the Youth Center: Jan. 29, Feb. 5, 12, 19, 26, Mar. 5, 12, 26, Apr. 2, 9   

 

Jan. 26 - Share Your Story. Shelle Jensen will be here to share a part of her faith journey and talk about her work with CASA. We know and love Shelle! Get to know her even better on this night! 5:30-7:30 p.m.
