We are very excited to announce that the youth are going to be running the services on May 30th at 9am and 11am. We realize that this is Memorial Day Weekend but we really hope your student can be apart of it. With Covid, all students that can and are able, are very encouraged to attend and help. The students will also be learning a song that was introduced last night. It is called Together by for King and Country, Tori Kelly and Kirk Franklin. Perhaps they can practice the chorus of the song as the video is below. Sign Ups for ushers and scripture readers are attached below.

Pumpkin Patch Planning Meeting 5/16 12:15p

(No lunch provided) If you would like to be included in a Facebook Group Video Messenger Room, email Tony at the button below.
Warren Willis Camp Discount Announced!
Drumroll please. As you know we had an incentive for you to register your student for Warren Willis Camp by April 28th to receive a discount from the 144 Envelope Fundraiser from 2020. Well with the registrations in, we are excited to announce that each camper will receive a discount in the amount of $225.00 off the cost of camp. What a blessing that is to make camp just a little more affordable for those students looking to attend. Know that once the scholarship awards from Warren Willis are announced, First Church will be making payment on behalf of your student in the coming weeks. If your student will be using their accounts to pay the final balance, please let Tony know.
Middle Sch School's Out Party 6/4 6p-10p
Details are being finalized but we wanted you to know that we are planning a School Out Party for all Middle Schoolers and graduating 5th graders. We're putting a plan together to submit to our Covid Task Team as to what we will be able to offer. Be ready to invite your friends.
*Welcome all graduating 5th graders on June 4th!*
Just a reminder about our graduating students:
Graduating 5th Graders: It has been our tradition to welcome graduating 5th graders to all youth group activities on the last day of their 5th grade school year, which this year will be June 4th. They are welcomed to the Mid Sch-Schools Out Party (See Above).

Graduating 8th Graders: It is the policy of the StuMin to keep the 8th graders in Middle School through the Summer (although camp and conferences may have them move up for their events). This allows one final summer together with their Middle School Friends, help the new 5th graders coming in to feel welcomed, and allow the high schoolers to welcome them just before school starts at their end of the summer to their own High School Party.

Graduating 12th Graders: Customarily 12th graders are welcomed to continue StuMin activities throughout the summer and can continue until either they leave for college/military or until undergrad students start their school year. This year that will be August 16th.
