Great work!

Frontline,
Thanks so much for the awesome work you all did yesterday with Youth Sunday!  I have gotten so many compliments from people at the service.  Each individual element--from singing to seating people was deeply appreciated.  I hope you had an enjoyable time with it.  One pertinent piece of information to pass along is from Pastor Jud.  He would like to encourage you all with the great work you did, as well as to invite any of you who have interest to continue to participate in Sunday services.  If you like singing, talk to Pam! If you would like to read a prayer or Scripture, talk to me or Pastor Jud!

Thanks for those who came to my place yesterday and thanks to Hubachs for Babysitting you all :)  I hope the bonfire was good for those who were able to make it.  See you all around!

At the Friendship house you can hang out with Seth and the other friends, play cards or board games, watch a movie, play wii, play frisbee, soccer, etc. outside, or just chill and do homework. It should be a great time!

Reminder: Mandatory meeting

Hey everyone, just a reminder that we have a mandatory mission trip meeting tomorrow night at 7:15 at the ARC. Plan to be there from 7:15 until 9:00 PM. Your parents should be there at 7:15 but will not need to stay the whole time as far as I understand. They will get some logistical information, fill out forms to be notarized, and should also have your insurance card and the records of your last tetanus shot. Look forward to seeing you there!

Change of plans for this Sunday (4/14)!!

Greetings to all!
My apologies for the late notice and change, but this coming Sunday night, I would like to request that all the Frontline students who are available come to the ARC at 7:15 PM.  I am hoping to use from 7:15 until 9:00 PM to plan for youth Sunday which will take place on April 28.  We would love for all students to take part in this event/service!  It is a blessing to be in a church that allows the youth to be such an active part of the church's life, and we want to take this opportunity to serve the congregation through helping with morning worship on April 28.

Please let me know if you know of a conflict with either this Sunday evening from 7:15 until 9:00 PM or April 28 (roughly 9:00 until 10:30 AM).

Girls book study

Hey Ladies,
Sorry for the short notice, but hopefully you already knew about this from your parent letters!  Remember, tonight you are going to continue your book study on Captivating which you began on your retreat!  I think time is set at 7:30 PM, but please text/call a sponsor to confirm.  Hope it is a great study for you all!
