School is out, the warm weather is here, pools are open; I'd
say it's starting to look a lot like summer time. Which is awesome
because I love summer! I love the sunshine, the BBQ, the warm summer
nights, and most of all, I love that we get to hang out with teenagers
all summer without silly school getting in the way. For me, summer is
all about taking advantage of this extra time in our schedules, to make
new
friendships and build stronger relationships!
We have so many fun things planned for our youth group this
summer: our Mexico trip, Hume Lake, pool parties, ice cream socials,
games nights and some quality time over coffee or frozen yogurt. It is
so important for our students to build friendships with other Christian
friends and adults who can be there for them and encourage them in their
faith throughout their lives. This is what our fun events are all
about. Yes, we may be eating hot dogs or throwing water balloons at each
other and on the surface those things might not seem very important.
But solid Christian friendships and relationships are built by spending
time together and we are so excited about doing that this summer. We
hope your students can join us!
