NOVEMBER HIGHLIGHTS
Early in the month we went to a dance at Christ U.M.C. in Salt Lake City. It was a lot of fun, and we met a lot of new people, and renewed old friendships.
A big THANK YOU is in order for Nancy Peralez and Jim Wilder, who were the adult chaperones for the Youth Leadership Conference (YLC). They, along with Luke Peralez, Melissa Lambdin, Shane Reinhard, Scott Reinhard, Rick England, Nicole Murphy, Monika Aune, and Melody Wilder, left town on the 7th, headed for Estes Park, Colorado. A good, educational time was had by all!
On the 12th Scott Reinhard shared a wonderful Bible lesson with us all about the importance and need for commandments. His teaching abilities make us wonder if there isn't a genetic trait for education!
On the 19th we celebrated Luke Peralez and Brittney Rennermann's birthdays. We also did our planning for December.
The 26th will be a game night, with Melissa Lambdin delivering a Bible Lesson.
REMINDERS
Youth Birthdays in December include Kayla Fayerweather (12-12) and Michelle Oakley (12-29).
Dinner is being served every Wednesday night following the Praise Worship. It is from 6:45 until 7:30, with Youth following from 7:30-8:30 p.m.
We are looking for an additional two Youth Leaders. This can be a couple, or two individuals. Attendance every week is not a requirement; in fact, one reason we would like a couple more leaders is to accommodate schedule conflicts with all the leaders. No Experience Necessary! See Patty Lambdin for more details, or call her at 566-3697.
