UMYF this Sunday (1/27): All 7th – 12th graders are
invited to UMYF this Sunday from 6-8pm in the CLLC. We’re taking steps to fight
hunger this week! Join us as we do some planning for April’s 30-hour Famine
event and we’ll also work on the Souper Bowl of Caring, which takes place on
2/3. We're having pizza for dinner this
week, so PLEASE BRING $3 if you are able.
Revolution 2013: There is still space for
YOU at Revolution! We're headed to Columbia, Feb. 15-17 to join youth from
across SC and be energized, encouraged, and challenged. Cost per person is
$120.00 (FULL SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE) and includes hotel,
transportation, event tickets, and 2 meals. You will need spending money for 2
dinners and 2 lunches, plus any optional souvenirs. A nonrefundable deposit
of $55.00 is due NOW! Contact Elizabeth with questions: econnell@hibbenumc.org
Souper Bowl of Caring: Next
Sunday (2/3) is Super Bowl Sunday, so it's time again for the Souper Bowl of
Caring! We'll be asking the congregation
for a donation of $1 per person or one food item to be given to a local
organization that works to fight hunger here in our community. We'll do some planning for this event during
UMYF this week, but make plans now to give generously on 2/3.
Palm Sunday Handbells: Amy
McCurley and I are seeking 11 people to play in a youth handbell choir on Palm
Sunday, March 24. Practices will be held
during Sunday School hour (9:15 - 10:15am) on 2/24, 3/3, 3/10, and 3/17. If you are interested in participating,
please compare this practice schedule with your personal calendar, as it is
imperative that all members be present for all practices. This is a great chance for Hibben's youth to
lead the congregation in worship and celebration! If you have questions or are interested in
this opportunity, please e-mail Elizabeth (econnell@hibbenumc.org).
UMYF Meals: If you,
your family, or small group would be able to provide dinner for 20 people on
February 10 at 6pm, please e-mail Elizabeth at econnell@hibbenumc.org. Thanks for considering!
SALKEHATCHIE 2013! It's time to start thinking about summer
plans, and that means it's time for SALKEHATCHIE! The website (www.salkehatchie.org) has been
updated with 2013 camp dates and the necessary application forms. Hibben will once again plan to send a group
to the Lexington camp, happening July 13-20.
You will notice that there are camps throughout the state, throughout
the summer, so if another date or location piques your interest, feel free to
strike out on your own. Applications can
be printed by clicking here: http://www.salkehatchie.org/home/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Application-2013.pdf
Please
plan to complete your application and mail it, with your payment, to the state
office listed at the bottom of the form.
Then, notify Elizabeth via e-mail of the camp you plan to attend
(econnell@hibbenumc.org). FULL or PARTIAL
SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE from Hibben.
Do NOT let money stand in the way of your experiencing this incredible,
powerful, life-changing week. Contact
Elizabeth with questions!
