With Winterfest over and the weather finally deciding to behave like it's South Carolina again, it can only mean one thing: Spring is nearly here! With spring comes some extra craziness to the Youth Ministry calendar, only to be followed by more insanity in the summer. Here are a few things to mark on your calendar so you're sure not to miss out on them:
March 4-6, Girls' Retreat: At the Kirbys' house
March 6, Spaghetti Dinner to raise money for our mission trip this summer - right after morning services
March 12-13, Guys' Retreat: We will camp-out on Saturday night and return on Sunday evening
March 20-24, CrossTraining: A week-long event where students stay at the church building to learn about and practice spiritual disciplines.
March 24, Dinner with the Hilltoppers: Each year we finish CrossTraining by eating a potluck dinner provided by the Hilltoppers. We always have a great time getting to know some of our older brothers and sisters, and the food is always wonderful. This year, the teens have decided to honor the Hilltoppers by having a song service where the Hilltoppers get to pick the songs. Everyone from the Youth Ministry is invited to attend, even if they are not able to attend all of CrossTraining
April 15, 30 Hour Famine: In an effort to raise awareness about world hunger, we will do without food for 30 hours. More specific details will follow soon.
Spring Break: College trip: I am still hoping to do a tour of Christian colleges over spring break, but I will need to find out soon who wants to go and when their spring break is. If you are interested in going, leave a comment or shoot me an email.
May 13-15: Spring Retreat: Our annual trip to PBC to get away for a weekend. This year Jeff Upton from Bowie, Maryland will be coming to speak to us. Look for online registration to be up soon!
