Youth news for November and December.

Here's the video for the Newsboys latest hit, "Something Beautiful." We're going to see them on Nov. 18!

Lots of things are happening, it's easy to lose track! Here are some important things you need to know for November and December.

1. Next Meeting, Nov. 18th, we have planned the concert for Newsboys and Kutless at the Van Andel. I bought the tickets for those of you who said you wanted to go. If you want to go still, and do not have a ticket, talk with me.



Kutless rocks! They'll be playing before the Newsboys. Here is their song "Sea of Faces."

2. The Mission Trip Meeting is next Sunday, Nov. 11, at 1 PM. There will not be lunch, the meeting will be roughly one hour. It will be all about our trip to Clearfield, PA in 2008 from July 12-19. I hope you all come! We only have 35 spaces (7 for adults, and 28 for youth).

3. Fund-raising began today with the Wreath Sale. For every wreath you sell, you receive $5 in your bank account for youth events.

4. Dec. 2 Youth Group will be an outing, with Advent by Candlelight being here. Watch your email for details.

5. The State-Wide ELCA Gathering will be Dec. 27-30th in Lansing,Michigan. There is a cost, that the church can help you with. This is a massive retreat of fun, fellowship, games, late nights, music, worship, and workshops with youth from all over the state, from other ELCA churches. It's not to be missed. But.... I need to know if you are thinking about coming. Please email me at sarah.stobie@tlcgr.org if you want to come.

6. Dec. 16th for Youth Group we will do a service project together. With the Faceless Band, we will form our own caroling group. It's a lot of fun, and an easy way to serve God this holiday season.
