Hey Everyone!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
Make sure to invite your friends to the GET AIR event on Sunday night Dec. 4th and also for the annual Christmas Pancake party on Sunday morning Dec. 18th!! Details are below! These are great opportunities to invite your friends to join you and introduce them to your friends at Discovery.
Think back to your first day of school. When you showed up to your classes or finally made it to the lunchroom that day. The first thing you probably thought was, Where am I going to sit?
Maybe you moved towards the popular kid. Or maybe the smart kid. Or the funny one. Or maybe even the quietest kid in class. No matter where you ended up, you were choosing where to sit based on one thing: What the other person had to offer you. And if you think about it, that's an approach we use in a lot of places in our lives. With our families, our friends, our small groups-we tend to move towards people who can make our lives better. And while there's certainly nothing wrong with that, when we focus only on people who have something to offer us, we're not only missing out on some incredible people, but also on some incredible things God has for us. Jesus had an upside-down way of engaging people who could offer Him little. And if we can put on His lens for seeing others and follow His lead in serving them-no matter who they are, where they come from, or what they can do for us-we'll find that it's not just the lives of others that will be changed, but our lives that will be changed as well.
See you on Sunday!

Friday, February 24 - Sunday, February 26
The weekend conference includes large group sessions (good music, motivating speakers, and fun), a time to choose your own workshops, and a stay at the Hilton Hotel in Harrisburg, PA with 1,500 other students. It is a great bonding time and fun with your friends! Meals are not covered; most will be purchased in the food court connected to the hotel. Hotel rooms are by gender and will have an adult chaperone in each.
We are very excited about this event and the opportunity it provides to get kids excited about their relationship with Jesus and connecting with one another. Stay tuned for more details.

As our guests, we ask that you not put anything in the bucket...this act of worship is reserved for those of us who call Discovery our home. All contributions will go directly to Discovery Christian Church and help support our missionaries in El Salvador. |
