Ready Youth Week One

Welcome to our third Parent Newsletter. The topic of the day is our big event coming up in August called Youth Week. What is Youth Week you ask? It is an entire week of Worshiping God, Bible Studies, Group Games, and Food. All youth grades 6 and up all the way to early college are invited, August 13-17th @7pm on the dot.

In case you are wondering why Ready Player One? In the movie Wade Watts has to finish a video game in order to win the grand prize, he has to search for 5 keys that will unlock the final Easter Egg (a mcguffin if you will), giving him complete control of the virtual world that he is playing in. During this week your teens and will be learning about three obstacles that prevent them living the abundant life that Jesus offers them, and the three Keys to overcoming those obstacles. We will start and end the week by reiterating that these keys are not possible unless the Gospel comes alive in their hearts and they have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

After each nights Bible Study we will have a group fellowship games involving water balloons, (please have your youth dress accordingly guys and girls must wear a dark T-shirt and shorts.) nerf guns, lazer tag, scavenger hunts, and video game/sports tournaments.

Core Youth would appreciate your help in a number of ways. First and foremost Prayer. Pray that our youth would come out of this week living the abundant life that Jesus offers. Jesus says in John 10:10 "The Thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but I come so that you may have life
