Opportunities

                HIGH SCHOOL YOUTH GROUP

         The High School Youth Group will meet on Wednesday evenings, gathering in the large classroom by the offices on the first & third Wednesday of each month from 7 to 8:30 PM. We have new & exciting ideas we'd like to explore, so all high school youth are encouraged to attend and share their ideas as well. If you have any questions, please contact Lisa Betsinger or Pastor Larry.

 

YOUTH

Parents! It has come to the attention of the Christian Education committee that there is once again interest in having a Vacation Bible School this summer. Because of the size and scope of such an activity, we want to hear from YOU regarding your family’s likelihood of participation. Though no date has been set, we are thinking early August would be best, with the program running one week. For those interested, a sign-up sheet will be posted on the kiosk in the fellowship hall. Since we can’t do this alone, we’ll also have a sign-up for adults willing to help out, possibly forming a VBS sub-committee. If you have any questions, please contact Pastor Larry or anyone on the Christian Education committee. Thanks!

 Campers & parents!!!  Believe it or not, summer will be upon us before we know it, so it is once again time to check out summer Bible camps. As in the past, the Christian Education committee has limited scholarship money available for campers, so please let us know by the end of April the specifics of your particular camp, (ie where, when, how much, etc). At our committee meeting in May, (some camps have early registration deadlines), we will review the requests for funds and determine how much can be allotted to each camper based on the number of children applying. As in years past, we may ask your camper to give a very brief overview of their camping experience to the congregation  in the fall. If you are unfamiliar with camps in the region, CE can list several that have served our youth over the years. Most, if not all, of the camps have websites showing activities, dates, prices, directions, etc. Additionally, this year, John Knox Presbytery  is offering to donate $100 per camper that attends a Presbyterian Bible camp. The strict deadline for applying for that money is May 31, so don't dawdle! (NOTE: The only Presbyterian camp in the region is Camp Wyoming in Wyoming, Iowa.) If you need further information, please contact Pastor Larry or anyone on the Christian Education committee. Thanks!
