UMYF News, 1/28

Whew! What an amazing, blessed, laughter-and-learning filled January we've had! We've talked about New Year's resolutions, our fears, we've been bowling, and we went to the most amazing youth conference ever - Revolution - in Columbia. I hope you were able to be apart of some (or all) of these happenings. What a great way to start off 2010!

The momentum and energy continue over the next several weeks, so take a look at all the happenings below and jump in!

Pancake Breakfast: This Sunday (1/31), the youth are hosting a second Pancake Breakfast in order to help raise funds for the Belize Mission Trip. The breakfast starts at 7:30am in the CLLC and will be one of the many events happening during the Ministry Fair. Below, you'll find a list of people who have signed up to help with the breakfast. If you haven't signed up, please come help anyway! We're going to need all hands on deck!

Serving from the Heart Ministry Fair: During Sunday School hour this Sunday (1/31), Hibben is having it's first ever Ministry Fair. Youth Ministries (that us!) will have a fun, interactive table aimed at telling the church about all the wonderful things we do. Our goal is to educate the congregation as well as recruit adult volunteers to help with Sunday School, UMYF, chaperoning special events, prayer team, etc. We'll need a steady rotation of youth representation at the table for our "UMYF Shoot-out" air hockey game, so come prepared to meet and greet other church members!

COOKIES! We've been asked by the Wesley Foundation (college ministry) to bake cookies for an upcoming luncheon. If you'd like to help, I'd love for you to meet me in the CLLC on Sunday (1/31) at 5pm, ready to bake! I'll have all the supplies we need.

UMYF this Sunday: The previously scheduled flag football game has been put on hold and instead, we'll be having UMYF from 6 - 8pm in the CLLC. Come join us for a fun night of dinner, games, and fun. I'm looking forward to seeing you all!

Super Bowl Party: Invite your friends and get ready for some FOOTBALL! We're proud to be hosting this Charleston District-wide Youth event, and I want a big representation of Hibben Youth! So mark your calendars for 4:30pm on Sunday, February 7. More details to follow...I'm sure I'll need some hands to help with set-up!
