Friday-Youth-Pavement Chalk Murals and Swim
We'll be meeting at the church at usual time 7:30pm (but hey you can come early if you want and chillax in the youth room for a while)...But for youth we will be doing some pavement chalk murals at the church. So bring your creativity for that and have fun with it. I'm going to connect our wonderous art with the "Summer Fest" our church is doing so our pavement murals will serve a greater end than just an outlet for our creativity!
Then, Hannah Willems has been so kind as to invite the group to her house for some swimming! So bring your swimwear as well. We'll head there around 9ish and hopefully the weather will be good for it!

Josh Duerrstein's Baptism!!!
Feel free to continue to let others know as you see fit...now then here from Josh is "The Deal" (T.D.)
SO heres the deal, I Josh Duerrstein am geting baptized ont the 27th of August, and you people are invited to come. It will take place durring the 11AM service [at Southridge Church] and there will be a kind of party thing after [at the Duerrstein's] in which you can indulge yourselves in food (probably pizza and beef on a bun) and swimming and trampolining (the act of bouncing on a trampoline). There may also be a volley ball ball net set up for volleying and balling. Oh and i live at 1515 5th street if directions are needed [either to Southridge or my place] u know how to contact me...I hope.
Finally one of the most crucial parts of an invite. the R.S.V.P which if you were wondering is a fancy french acronym* that stand for reponde sil vous pait (spelling may or may not be correct and may have violated copywrite laws in 38 or more States of America). As you can probably tell im bored, but i would like all of you to follow through with this R.S.V.P thing as so the amount of food purchased will be enough for the attendees to consume. Any further questions and you can reach me here or at the phone 905 687 1708. I will be at camp next week so it would be preferable if i were to be contacted before Sunday morning.[Josh out...]
*nota bena: we all know how Southridge members can't get through any conversation/email without the use of at least one acronym, so I guess now Josh has proven to the wider community that he's ready to join Southridge!
You know I'm just playing Josh I [Tom] am extremly excited that Josh is getting baptized and with the risk of emptying our pews I encourage you all to go and support him! I myself WISH I could be there but seeing as I've missed a bunch of Sunday's at Scott St. this summer and will be missing this coming Sunday to be at camp, I just can't do it (I am a paid christian after all ;) )...I hope to be at the lunch though...I never turn down a free lunch.

Aids. Care Now.
Hey all, I'm not sure how many of you got my email or not, but either way I want to draw your attention to a new link in our links section. It is for a new MCC website that is trying to cast light on the work they are involved in for the aids crisis affecting our world (esp. Africa). You can also get to the site by clicking on the heading of this post or go to: http://www.aidscarenow.org/
I just came back from a leadership summit where one of the sessions was an interview between Bill Hybels and Bono and it again drove home for me the urgency of the need for Christians to take action to work to stop this crisis!
I would be EXTREMELY interested to hear any suggestions and idea's how our youth group or church could engage this issue in any way shape or form...please, pray, think and if you can, GIVE.

Talent Show/Guys & Girls Night
MEET AT 6:30PM! PASS THE WORD AROUND!
Hey all, yep so this Friday is our youth group Talent Show so come one come all and bring your talents! You don't have to perform a talent to come, you could just watch, but I warn you that wouldn't be as fun! Do something...anything...trust me it will be a lot more fun. Go ahead think outside of the box...do gymnastics...balance a broom on your nose...whatever...I know our youth has a TON of talent!
THEN, AFTER THE TALENT SHOW...
We're having a guys and girls night...that's right...the ladies will be hanging out with the girl adult leaders for an all nighter (so bring whatever you need for an all nighter). They'll be doing what girls namely do at all nighters...i.e. talk about us boys!
As to the guys, we will be going to Gar Wiens place also for an all nighter...bring whatever you need for the night and bring your swim trunks if you like, the pool will be open until 10pm so lets not dilly dally and lets go straight there after the talent show. We'll be celebrating Gar's return to Canada and to being an adult leader in our group and giving a big final hurah to Mike as he's retiring as adult leader. For this we'll be doing what guys do at all nighters...namely eat meat and talk about barbecuing meat! We'll also talk about some other stuff probably, but mmm the meat. It's bring your own and don't hurt Gar's feelings by bringing something silly (unless it's for health or ethical reasons). I suggest a nice steak!
mmm...STEAK!
