David Henniger has created a social network site for our congregation (its kinda like facebook, but just for us). If enough people start using it, it could really be a helpful communication tool.
Go give it a try: http://schurch.ning.com/
Once you join, go join the group "youth parents." Let me know what you think of it.

April Stuff
April 4th - Spring Cleaning 8 am
This is a chance for the youth ministry to give back a little to the church that supports us so well. Mr. Wes and Ms. Eydie will be cooking us breakfast and Mr. Roy is lining up all kinds of projects around the building to give us the opportunity to serve. Even if you can't come for the whole time, please come by for a little bit to chip in.
April 13th - Sign Up Deadline for Jr. and Sr. Impact
On Sunday there will be information packets on Impact, as well as other trips on the horizon. This packet will give you the details on the trip and how to make sure that you're signed up.
April 19-24 - Cross Training
This is an event we do each year where high school students (grades 9-12) are invited to spend a week at the church building to develop spiritual disciplines. Students will come to the building each day after school where they will have a mandatory study hall to work on homework, then given extra time, if needed to finish. They will also eat dinner and sleep at the church. In between dinner and bed, students are taught how to manage their time in such a way that they can connect spiritually with Christ through prayer, Bible study and other disciplines.

Blogging Silence
I apologize for the absence of updates from the past 2 weeks. Things have been a little out of kilter, but seem to be returning to normalcy (if that's what you can call it).
I would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support for our family these past 3 weeks. It has been difficult and the mourning is far from over, but we have such a great sense of peace for Michael. There truly is not better feeling for us than to know that his struggle is now over.
On Thursday, I will be posting a schedule of events happening in April.
