We have some schedule changes because of Fall Break! We will hold youth formation on October 7 and 21, but will take a break on October 14.
After Fall break and a busy fall, we will catch up at the lock-in at the end of the month!
|
|
Get ready for St. Christopher's Fall Youth Lock-In! The lock-in will take place from October 26 at 8:00 p.m. until October 27 at 10:00 a.m. for 6th through 12th graders. We will have lots of fun through fellowship, games, a bonfire, and more! Friends are welcome and it is okay if you have to come late or leave early. This is a laid-back and flexible event for youth to come together to have fun and experience the love of God through community.
Contact Jenna Parker with questions.

Dinners with Youth Leader, Jenna Parker
|
|
Dear St. Christopher’s Families,
I wanted to welcome you back to the program year for St. Christopher’s Youth. I, along with Lynn Ducat, Alison Tierney and Aaron Seitz make up the newly reformed Youth Design Team. We are thrilled to have Jenna Parker as our new Youth Minister and hope that you all have had a chance to say hi and meet her through the summer. Jenna would love the chance to get to the know each of the families who have youth ages 6th grade to 12th grade a bit better and has offered to come to family’s homes to share a meal with groups of two or three families at a time. If only one family is available on a date, that will work too! We think this will be a fantastic way for both our families as well as Jenna to really learn about our youth, get some ideas and make some connections.
In the link provided, please go on to the sign up genius to either sign up to host an evening, or attend an evening. Once you know who is hosting, please coordinate with that family to share the meal planning (getting any food allergies/preferences-Jenna is a vegetarian, although she does eat fish). The meal can be as easy as ordering pizza-this is really about getting to know one another better and starting the year off well! Please do not hesitate to be in touch with me if you have any questions!

Now that school has started, I would love to support the St. Christopher's Youth in their extracurricular events! If there is a performance, game, or other important showcase you would like me to attend, please let me know throughout the year with this form and I will do my best to be there.
Thank you,
Jenna
