first entry and information

hey guys,

so this blog is going to be used as a multi-purpose kind of thing. i'll use it for communication purposes (one of many methods) to update everyone on events and meetings and such.

also, we're going to start next week with a periodic entry from the group, based on a theme or Biblical topic or whatever.

firstly, i think it wise to inform everyone of the successful kickoff event we had this evening. we met at southwood for pizza and an info meeting, and discussed the outline for our year. then went bowling!

basically, our weekly activities will include the following:
friday nights: 7:00pm-9:30pm regular meetings, with an off-campus event every month.
sunday mornings: 11:00am during the sunday service) Bible study, with every 5th week being in the regular service

REMINDER: for those of you who were not at the meeting, and those of you whose parents were not at the meeting; PARENTS need to fill out the registration/information/waiver/medical (etc.) package. please get it from me as soon as possible so everyone is allowed to participate in youth programming.

upcoming dates to mark on your calendars:

oct. 19- regular meeting
oct. 26- GMA covenant awards (*see email sometime this week)
nov. 2- regular meeting
nov. 9- regular meeting
nov. 16-18-fall retreat (*see email sometime in the next 2 weeks)
nov. 23- NO MEETING (week after retreat)
nov. 30- regular meeting

alright, thats it for now!

peace,
sam
