YF 30 Hr. Famine at EACO this Friday&Sat (Everything due on April 8th)

Thanks again for another great weekend, I heard the smoothie bar/movie was a lot of fun. I had a great relationships talk with the junior high students as well. Thanks for your great participation in our second Sunday school series of the Old Testament. I've enjoyed it so far, remember you can always submit questions about anything/everything and we'll address them periodically in Sunday school. We took a look at Exodus and how these covenants have played out in salvation history and dipped a bit into Hebrews as well!

This weekend is the 30 Hour Famine at EACO (4 Thorncliff Pl) from 7pm Friday(8th) to 7pm Sat (9th), we'll be having a lot of fun with icebreakers, worship, prayer, games, movies, service projects and of course a lot of free fellowship time! I've attached a form that you MUST complete for the famine in order to attend/sleep over. I've heard from many of you that you've been faithfully raising awareness and funds for 30 Hr. Famine. Pray that World Vision would be faithful stewards as they distribute these funds to those who need it most.

Stuff to bring (PAY ATTENTION)
Signed and completed waiver form (attached)
All used and unused fundraising forms/money
$5 for supper
Your registration fee for No Other Name ($26) if you are attending
Ouje applications
Bible, clothes for the night and day, cameras, sleeping bag, pillow. hygeine items such as toothbrush, comb, shampoo, deodorant. (instruments and equipment if you are on the worship team)

The details:
7pm Friday night at EACO (4 Thorncliff Pl) to 7pm on Saturday night, $5 for supper on Saturday

Leave this stuff at home
ipods, mp3 players and the sort. no alcohol, tobacco or weapons of any kind permitted. Cell phone use is only to call parents/emergencies

Ouje-Bougoumou mission trip applications are due this Friday!! If you have not yet submitted your form, please prayerfully consider this opportunity not only to serve but to grow! These trips have been highlights in my 5 years of youth ministry, I've seen several youth accept Christ, the Spirit move and breakthroughs in our own youth who attend to share the gospel and serve. Retreats and discipleship weeks are fantastic but I pray that you would consider taking steps of faith in applying for Ouje. Please take time as you answer the questions on the form.

No Other Name money is due this Friday, please submit it to myself or one of the Pure Energy adult volunteers this Friday. If you have said that you are coming, you are on the hook for $26 as you are already registered for the early bird deadline.

Coffeehouse is coming up on May 21st! That'll come in a blink of the eye. We encourage the student leadership team to focus on the progress thus far. Start praying about who you can invite to the coffeehouse too!

Let us know how we can be praying for you or if you would like to meet up!
See you all on Friday and Sat!
