God's Blessings on you this Christmas!

Hi Everyone!

Merry Christmas!
Happy New Year!

If you wish to go caroling on Christmas Eve at the State Hospital...be at the chapel there by 8:45 a.m.! It's fun and the patients enjoy the caroling! Free pizza and pop afterward (about noon).

NWPC's Christmas Eve service is at 7:00 p.m. Some of you are babysitting & those who aren't are invited to attend the serivce! (or if there's no kids to babysit...come to the service!)

I really enjoyed seeing you all at the Ward's Open House! Thanks for stopping by!

No Youth Group this Sunday! I am planning one on Jan 4th at this point! We should be back by then! :) I'll let you know if there isn't one then!

Peace,
MWard

On the Radar....

Hey All,

Service Opportunity...THIS Saturday is B.i.G. Club from 10 - 11:30. We will rake leaves for no longer than an hour after, then have lunch! There is at least one person who has requested we rake her leaves. Let's pray for nice weather.

Even if you can't come to B.i.G. Club (my dancers!), maybe you can do the raking OR to the next Kid's Stuff BC!

Rec continues every Wednesday from 7:00 until 8:30 p.m. at the Community House.

Youth Group (hereafter known as YG) will be on Sunday from 6:00 - 7:30. We should be pretty steady for November. Sorry about all the other opportunities in Sept/Oct (but they were fun & different)!!!

Last Minute Mission Trip Reminders

Hey Everyone,

A few reminders...

Sat. at 5:00 to pack the trailer.

Sun at 6:00 a.m. to leave

You may want a beachy towel in addition to a bath towel.

Bring $20 for the overnight stay (give to me) plus money for food/drinks/souveniers (you keep!). You might want to bring $30-40 for food. Deborah says that food & drinks at Cedar Point are somewhat expensive.

A very nice person has offered to make breakfast sandwiches on Sunday! Let me know if you want one or two and any other dietary considerations you have (no cheese, or no eggs, or whatever...) That way you can eat it in the vans or whenever if you are not a breakfast eater at 6 a.m.!

I'm so excited....I just can't hide it.... : )

News of Note

Hi everyone,

Missed some of you tonight. We went out to DQ after Youth Group.

I need signed forms for some of you who are going on the mission trip! You know who you are! BY THE END OF THE WEEK, PLEASE!

Let me know if you want to go canoeing on Sunday. We are leaving at about 12:30 from the church. It should be about $10 per person. I need to know who is going in the next day or so! Because of that, there is no Youth Group on Sunday.

I'll be away the next two weeks, so there won't be Youth Group then either.

There WILL be Rec. on the Wednesdays at the State Hospital Soccer Fields.

Call Me a Slacker...

Hey All,

...School's out for summer.... Oh, sorry, I regressed to my youth and the songs thereof! I need to see who sang that song!

Sorry for the lack of new posts! Between busyness and my internet not being happy, it hasn't gotten done!

Firstly, congratulations go to Lindsey Berg & Nyssa Brumagin for making it into Madrigals. Congratulations go to Riane Winslow for making it into Acapella.

New newsletters out for June/July. Get one if you don't have one!

Youth group meets the next two weeks at regular times: 6:15 & 7:00! Lots of stuff to discuss so try to be there if at all possible! I need to get paperwork, etc. squared away for the mission trip before I go away later this month. Of course, even if you aren't going on the trip, you need to be at youth group!

Rec as usual...at state hospital if the weather permits...

Until later...

Prince Caspian Anyone???


Hey All,


Back after a mini vacation camping last weekend. It was quite chilly at night , but sunny and fine during the days! We'll have to do a "campfire" in my backyard sometime this summer and have smores. Yum!

Is anyone interested in going to the Warren theater to see Prince Caspian on Saturday afternoon? The afternoon shows are at 12:30 and 3:30 and we can pick one to all go to. I was thinking the 12:30 one is good but Riane has to see if she is at the hospital on Sat morning. 3:30 will work also.


You can respond to this or call me 726-2415 and we can take whomever! Tickets are $6.00 (before 6:00).


Thanks to all who came out for Deborahs' "graduation party" at youth group! It was fun! Youth group is this Sunday night 6:15 for Jr High and 7:00 for High Schoolers. I've missed you all so come if you can. We have some "stuff" to talk about!

Splash Lagoon & Other Opportunities...



Hi All,

Famine Folks: Thurs. 5:00 @ church to meet with the newspaper reporter about the Famine. Don't forget! ($2,800 raised - WAY TO GO!) : )




Great skate last Wednesday! Thanks to Brian for his planning and support! Those who went had a good time and no one was injured!



If you are interested in going to Splash Lagoon, I need your money & permission slip by Sunday night at the very latest!! The cost is $30. We will leave at about 9 p.m. on Friday, March 14 and be back no later than about 4:00 a.m. (that's in the morning!). I'll take you to your house. If you are in the youth group, we can help with the finances.

The mission trip is being planned and I will need a committment and the deposit of $50 by Easter at the latest so be thinking about that. It will be one of the last couple of weeks in July. Tell me which one works best for you. See me for details! We might do some fundraising activities to help with this trip.

No youth group on Sunday - There is a tureen and Buddy will talk about his mission trip to Egypt. Plan to come - you don't even need to bring a dish unless you want to. It starts at 6:00 p.m.

Kid's Stuff B.i.G. Club is on the 15th and it's the Easter Party. We need dancing people and egg-cellent egg hiders! 10:00 a.m.

I am just so proud of ALL of you! I know that we all also pleased God this weekend! A big THANK YOU to Mr. Brumagin for leading us! Here's some pictures...

Under "housekeeping..."
Rec is this Wednesday at the Russell Roller Rink at 7:00 p.m. Either call, e-mail me, or comment on this blog if you need a ride. I will be at the church at 7:00 for those who need a ride. I'll wait about 5-10 minutes, so try to be on time or let me know if you will be later than that. It's free...no better deal than that. However, do bring $ for snacks, drinks, etc.

I'm working on a new newsletter this week so let me know of anything you are doing, awards you got, etc., so I can spread the word!








For those who want to keep up with what's going on with Todd's baby (from Selah) - here's the hotlink. Remember that God loves, cares for, and most of all, created that precious life!

WORKIN' THE SPAGHETTI SUPPER!
Hi!
We had a great turnout for the supper - from you all as well as "customers." It was a good idea! Thanks for the hard work! It's fun when people do things together!
I hope you all are getting ready for the Famine weekend this weekend...planning is pretty much done thanks to Mr. B and we are excited about how God is going to work in and through our efforts! Cool event on Friday night...stay tuned... Please try to come to our worship service on Sunday, even if you attend other churches normally. Make sure your parents & siblings know that they are invited to the "break-fast" at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday. You do need to be here by 5:30 p.m. on Friday so we can get out to our event on time.
Rec is tomorrow night and there WILL be Youth Group on Sunday - regular times. We'll be tired, but it will be a good "wrap up" to the weekend.

Just want to remind some of you about getting the application for Footsteps to me by Sunday!

Be thinking about the Snow (ski/tube/board) trip on Feb. 9th to Peek n'Peak. Let me know if you want to go. There should be some help with costs. We'd like to have a count by the end of next week. This is not just for youth, adults can come, too. So can younger folks, but they need a family adult with them.

Friday: Who wants to go to see the VeggieTales movie in Jamestown? I am planning to leave about noon and we should be back by 4:00. Call or e-mail me. Early show tickets are $6. If you don't have the funds, it's OK, we can assist you. Let me know!

See you all at Rec tomorrow!

P.S. I will be doing a newsletter next week. If anyone has any news (awards, activities, etc.) let me know about it!

Doing anything Sat., Jan 19th in evening?

Ok, so it's been awhile since I've put something on here. It doesn't mean that the old brain hasn't been working, just the typing fingers...

I know this is short notice, but there is something called "Gladiator Games" that will take place on Saturday, Jan., 19th in the evening (6-9 p.m.) in Jamestown, courtesy of the Family Life Network. It's where youth groups compete in things like chariot racing and tennis ball assault. I've never been, but it sounds fun. It MAY be too late to register, but I'll try to find out tomorrow and will need a definite yes or no by Sunday. It's $5 per person, but we can cover the cost.

We also have other stuff in the works, details later...

Youth Group is for EVERYONE at 7:00 this coming Sunday.

Later...
