Wednesday evening for Jr Hi

Gather off the third floor activity center in the Jr/Sr High rooms between 5 and 7:50pm for a time of homework, followed by Shine! songs, then recreation and devotions.  You can enter the group at any time on Wednesday and don't need to be there at the starting bell. 

 

Mission Opportunities for Senior High Youth
These kids go on a week-long summer mission trip every year during the first full week of summer break. In recent years our youth and their counselors have accomplished amazing things in Paducah, KY; Kansas City, MO; Hot Springs, AK; Wilmington, NC and Brownsville, TX. These ventures give youth an opportunity to engage in hands-on mission while learning about themselves and people from different cultures.

This year Jr Highers will go on their own weekend mission trip to a local Chicago area.
