If your student hasn't had a chance to check out REACH! on Sunday evenings yet, this is a great week to do so, as we're having our end-of-the-year holiday celebration party!!
We'll have a special craft activity to complete together, games,
PIZZA!, plus our mindful prayer time to surround the coming weeks in joy, upliftment, and God's perfect peace.
REACH! takes place in the Crossroads basement from 5:00-6:15PM on Sundays. Both Middle and High School Students are welcome to join in. See you there!
With Joy,

There's still time for your family to pick up
an advent wreath!
With the wreath, you will also receive instructions on how to set up a
special place

This is a beautiful way to remind us of the true meaning of Christmas.

small group for High School girls
where we'll explore faith, life, challenges, and triumphs in a safe space together, all while enjoying tea
(or coffee) and snacks!
We'll
encourage
one another,
pray
for and with one another,
chat
about inspiring female figures from the Bible all the way through to today's popular culture, and
offer space
to honor our seeming setbacks, our hurts, or anything that weighs on our minds, hearts, and spirits while
celebrating
our strengths,
our achievements, and our phenomenal "superpowers".
Tea&T takes place on
alternating Tuesdays (4:45-6PM)
and
Thursdays (5:45-7PM)
in Ryan Chapel.
Tea&T will resume in the new year!!

Regular Gatherings
Intersect takes Sunday School to the "next level"!
We're continuing to learn about Jesus' ancestry and the leaders, rulers, and formational figures who have shaped and informed our Christian faith through their struggles, triumphs, and evolving relationship with God.
This week ends our exploration of the Old Testament (for now!). Through the story of Jonah, we'll get a clearer picture of the full spectrum of God's Grace.
9AM is Middle School Student Focused
11AM is created with High School Students in Mind
However, Students of either age-group are invited to attend the session of their choice.
See you in the Discipleship Room!
