Hello Youth Group Families,
Attached below you will find our summer schedule! Our ministry team is looking forward to a fun season! The theme for the summer is "tangible hope" –– we will explore what this means and how we can bring hope to others by living with an enthusiasm for life! And who isn't enthusiastic about slip 'n slide kickball?!
With joy,
Your Youth Ministers
Al and Danny Baxter, Jim Demory, and Mary Saarinen
