Weekly Youth Update: 9/9-9/15



We will be continuing our new Bible Study series, Christian Basics, this Wednesday night from 6:30-7:30. Our discussion this week will center on God as we seek to understand more about Him and His work in the world. The Family Life Center will open at 6:00 for anyone who wants to come and hang out. Feel free to invite friends and family as we fellowship and seek to grow in our walk with the Lord.

Sunday evening, September 22, the youth will be going out to eat together at Fuddruckers after the 6:00 evening service. Parents and families, we would love for you to join and fellowship with us if you are able. If not, we should arrive back to the church between 8:30-8:45. All youth and families need to bring money to cover their meals.

Finally, we are excited to announce our fall retreat! We are partnering with some other Baptist churches of the Saluda Baptist Association to go to Camp Longridge for a weekend retreat from November 15-17. Here is more information about the retreat:

Engage 2013
Location: Camp Longridge (Ridgeway, SC)
Date: November 15-17

The retreat is titled “Engage” and will focus on how to relate to God, other believers, and non-believers in a biblical way.

If you have any questions about the retreat, the youth dinner outing, or anything else feel free to email me (jason@homelandparkbc.org)!

Have a great week!
