Our Small Group Kickoff is Sunday, September 8 from 6-8pm! All Junior High and Senior High teens are invited to come be a part of being in a small group and growing your faith in community with one another! There will be pizza, 9-square, worship, games, and much more. Plan on being there and bring a friend! Bring some MONEY as we will be selling t-shirts (2 shirts for $5) and we will be taking a special offering for our Compassion International kid that we support.
SMALL GROUP SNACKS
PARENTS PLEASE SIGN UP!!! WE NEED YOUR HELP HERE! IT IS A EASY WAY TO MAKE OUR SMALL GROUPS AWESOME!
Small groups start this Sunday! For our Junior High and Senior High small groups to be successful we depend on parents to help bring SNACKS!!! Every Sunday night we need a Junior High Parent and a Senior High Parent to help supply snacks. If every parent can sign up 2 times out of the whole year we will be easily covered. Remember: If I don't have delicious snacks, the natives get restless! Here are the signups below:
All youth leaders, put on your calendar the National Day of Volunteer Youth Ministry Training on Saturday, September 21 from 9-11:30am at our church. This will be the BEST OF THE BEST training for all people involved in youth ministry! Please make every effort to attend this awesome training event. Any children and 4-6er's volunteers are invited too! Heck, if you are a parent of a teen and want some of the very best training why don't you come too! You are the biggest disciple to your teen anyhow! All are invited! It's free for all Epiphany people.
SUNDAY MORNINGS
For the month of September we will be focusing on the overall church plan for each one of us to implement the Discipleship Pathway for our spiritual development. Each week we will focus on what it means to worship, grow, serve, invite and give. It is going to be an awesome series that will inspire all of us to grow our faith.
