Weekly Youth Update: 5/4-5/10

Last week, we concluded our “Who is God?” study by learning about what it means for God to be King! The previous two weeks, they learned about God as Creator and Redeemer. This study was a refreshing review of God’s character and wondrous works for us!

This week, we are holding our second First Wednesday Youth Night! On the first Wednesday of every month, we gather in the Loft of the Family Life Center for a night of games, fellowship, and fun! We meet during our normal time, from 6:30-7:30. We will still hang out in the gym beforehand at 6:00 for anyone who wants to come. We hope that you are able to make it and invite a few friends too!

As announced last week, our summer will begin very soon! Below is a schedule of events taking place throughout the summer. Don’t forget about our Wednesday nights either! They will be just as fun as we change things up a bit for the summer!

The purpose of the Lord's Supper is not for us to go through the motions, but to remember all that Christ did for us. His body was broken and blood was shed for the forgiveness of our sins. Communion is a time to reflect, appreciate and give honor to Jesus for what He endured for us. This ordinance is not for everyone. This is only to be taken by those who are believers and accepted Jesus as their ultimate forgiver and leader. To partake in this service in an unworthy state is sin. 1 Corinthians 11:27 (NLT) 27 So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this...
