Creative Photo Night

Now that exams are over and your brains have had some time to recuperate we're going to get creative. We'll be meeting at Scott St. at 7:00 pm tomorrow night for a photo night. If you've got a camera then please bring it (and the cables for it) along and get ready to tap into your creative side...some of us might have to "tap" a bit deeper than others, but it's sure to be fun!

If you know you'll be attending the winter retreat then feel free to bring your form and $ along...next week is the deadline for it, but early is always good!

No Bible Study :(

Bible study tonight is canceled because I hurt my back yesterday...seriously, what's the deal?!? Anyhow, sorry about that. I hope that your exams are going well...or that your surviving them at least. See you on Friday!

Lounge Night

Today was the first day of exams and I hope that all of you are feeling alright. Since tomorrow night is, BAM, right in the middle of exams, we're going to do our bi-annual lounge night. It'll be a night of games, relaxing and most importantly, NO THINKING!

We'll be meeting at Scott St. at 7:00 pm.

Bible Study

We'll be having Bible study tonight at 7:00 pm at my house. We're going to be looking at the begining of Luke 7 this week.

BIBLE STUDY IS FOR EVERYONE!!!

Scott St. & Fairview's Next Top Model (SSFNTM)

Tonight we'll be doing our Newspaper Fashion Show/SSFNTM, so come out ready to be creative and ready for a laugh because it's sure to be fun! We'll meet at the church at 7:00 pm.

Bible Study

Man, it feels like it's been forever (say that again Sandlot style...forever) since we've had regular Bible study, but tonight is the night! Meet me at 7:00 pm at my house (169 Lake St.). We're going through the gospel of Luke right now and if you've got a chance then I suggest reading through the first 4 chapters of Luke before coming as a refresher of what we've talked about so far. Fairview students are invited to come as well, so if that's you then know that we'd love it if you came.

Remember, BIBLE STUDY IS FOR EVERYONE!!!

The last post about this Friday...I promise...probably

Okay, so there have already been two messages about Friday, but this one isn't actually from me. It's from Nikki and Rachel and they're the ones actually organizing it. Make sure you read it because there is some new info.

So this Friday night is our cheesy Christmas potluck. We will be meeting at Scott St., down stairs in the fire side room at 6:30pm.

We will be having our potluck, so make sure to bring something. Bean sent you all a list of suggestions already so that should give you some idea of what to bring.

Also it is a CHEESY Christmas party, and what is a cheesy Christmas party without a tacky Christmas sweater? So go out to value village or any thrift or your grandma's closet and find the most tacky Christmas sweater you can. There will be a prize for the person who has the best (or rather worst?) sweater.

We are also going to do a tacky re-gift exchange. So if you or someone in your family got something for Christmas that you really have no use for wrap it up and bring it. Or find something from your house you don't want anymore and wrap it up!

Those are just a few of the things planned for Friday night, so make sure you are there. Its gonna be fun! And after wards we might be watching a Christmas movie.

See you all Friday night!
Nikki & Rachel

This Week

I wrote last week that we’d be having regular youth Bible study at my house tonight, but I lied. We’re actually going to be joining the church (Scott St.) for the last night of the New Year’s prayer meetings. I’ve been out to the last two and it’s a small group of people from the church that’s been attending them, but it’s been great to think about what God is calling us to as a church and then pray for different aspects of that, so tonight we can do that regarding youth. Why not start the new year out in prayer?

Tonight’s prayer meeting will be at Scott St. at 7:30. If you’re planning on coming then make sure you are on time because it will start at 7:30 (perhaps plan on coming 5 minutes early). It’ll probably be over by 8:30, so if you guys want to, we can go to Tim Hortons afterward. And text all your youth friend to make sure they know that we’ll be at the church, not at my house.

This Friday, as you will of course remember from last weeks message, is our Ugly Christmas Sweater Potluck. The holidays are finally over and you might be sick of Christmas already, but in youth we like to beat a dead horse (is that really a saying? Ugh.) and keep the festivities going.

We’ll be meeting at Scott St. at 6:30 and everyone has to bring their favourite dish to share with the group. In case you’re having a hard time coming up with something, here is a list of suggestions:
• Veggie platter
• Fruit platter
• Meatballs
• Pasta or potato salad
• Some sort of casserole
• Stew
• Chili
• Perogies
• Soup
• Crackers & dip or cheese
• Garlic bread
• Dinner rolls
• Salad of any kind
• Dessert
• Anything that you like to eat
Now, in order to keep your parents from stressing out about this either plan on making your dish yourself or tell them about this A.S.A.P.!!!

If it’s still snowy out on Friday then perhaps we can go tobogganing after youth is finished. I’ll make sure to message you guys again if that’s the plan so that you can bring your winter gear and whatnot.

See you soon!
