Happy Thursday, everyone! We've got a busy weekend ahead here at Hibben...
Youth Sunday is this Sunday (11/13). The youth will be leading worship at both the 8:15 and 10:30 services and honoring Hibben's veterans for Veterans Day. If you have an active part in leading worship, please be in the Narthex at 7:50am SHARP. All youth are encouraged to be there at both services. DOUGHNUTS will be served during Sunday School hour. Please bring any veteran profile pages that need to be posted on display boards.
DINNER NEEDED: We are in need of dinner for UMYF this Sunday (11/13). Can your family help? We need food for 20 people to be served at 6:15pm. Please call Elizabeth if you can help - 813-8700 or e-mail her at econnell@hibbenumc.org.
UMYF this Sunday (11/13): We will meet from 6-8pm in the CLLC for dinner (hopefully!), games, and a lesson on what it means to GLOW despite the negativity that sometimes surrounds us. You won't want to miss this lesson, which contains a science experiment with Mountain Dew.
Christmas Eve Handbells: Contact Elizabeth if you're interested in playing in a youth handbell choir on Christmas Eve at 5:30. There will be 4-5 practices in November and December. This is a great opportunity to use your gifts to serve the church (and it's really fun, too!).
GOOD LUCK to the Wando Band, who are traveling to Indiana for Grand Nationals this weekend. We're thinking of you all and praying for safe travels and a memorable trip!

UMYF News, 11/3
Life is busy, the demands that others place on us are sometimes overwhelming, and it seems there are never enough hours in the day. I invite you to come to a place of rest this Sunday...church! Gather with your church family on Sunday morning for Sunday School and worship, and make plans to be rejuvenated at the youth rally on Sunday night (11/6). It promises to be a night of great worship music, a thought-provoking message, and a special time to set aside the worries of the world and be reminded of the goodness of God.
This week's announcements include:
Hibben's Hosting! PLEASE make plans to attend youth THIS SUNDAY. We'll be hosting the District Youth Rally (for the first time in at least 3 years!), and I need your help to be a friendly, welcoming face to other Charleston youth groups. We'll need help starting at 4pm for dinner prep and set-up. The event is from 5-7pm in the CLLC.
Ski Trip Deadline: The deadline to register for the 2012 Ski Trip (January 13 - 16 at Winterplace) has passed, but there are still TWO SPACES open for the trip. A deposit of $135 and a registration form are required to hold your space. If you need fundraising help, please let Elizabeth know (econnell@hibbenumc.org) - we've got lots of easy opportunities coming up to help raise money for your trip fees. It's time to commit!!!
Youth Sunday: If you aren't coming to Sunday School, you're missing the chance to help plan Youth Sunday, scheduled for November 13. We're going to honor our veterans and we need your help! Join in the planning at 9:15 on Sunday mornings in the youth room.
Christmas Eve Youth Handbells: It's already time to start thinking about Christmas Eve! Amy McCurley is ready to direct a youth handbell choir for the special family service on 12/24. If you participated last year, you know how fun and easy practices were, and you also know what a wonderful addition your music was to the service. If you are interested in participating, please contact Elizabeth at econnell@hibbenumc.org. There will be 4-5 practice sessions in the months of November and December.
