Upcoming Youth Events
December 7th - Christmas Party
Youth Group News
The youth group had an excellent Trunk or Treat at the historical society. We want to thank the society for inviting the group to participate in their first annual Trunk or Treat; the group was excited to pass candy out of the caboose! The youth group painted pumpkins during their Halloween party. Additionally, they had a great service day helping Gail winterize her yard.
The youth group helped with the Old Fashioned Christmas Soup and Sandwich Cafe , held in our Fellowship Hall during the event. Proceeds will go to offset the costs of Kalahari.
The candy cane fundraiser is underway. All proceeds go to offset the cost of Kalahari for the students going.
Looking Ahead:
The youth group’s Christmas party and gift exchange will be held on December 7, 2025.
Thank you for pouring into the students.

2025 Mission Trip to Nashville
The youth group had an excellent mission trip to Nashville, TN. Three students attended along with three chaperones. We were able to serve a nonprofit called East Nashville Hope Exchange (ENHE) which focuses on helping children with their literacy.
This summer, ENHE had 103 kids from grades Pre-K through 5th. Our students helped the staff clean up after the kids and then assisted the teachers throughout their day. From 11:30 AM-1:00 PM each day, our students lead “reading buddies” which is time set aside for 1:1 reading and literacy games. During our lunch breaks, our group would have devotional time where we were able to refocus on our theme “EQUIP,” as problem solving acronym that is directly applied to Christian living. In the afternoons, the kids would have play time outside and our students would help facilitate that.
On Tuesday evening, we had a free night to explore Nashville and our group chose to go to Centennial Park to see the Parthenon. Overall, our students grew in their self confidence and spiritual journeys.
