ISYC

It is ISYC time!  God has worked in amazing ways to allow 20 youth students to join us for what I know will be a fantastic experience.  I pray for everyone to come with open minds and hearts to hear from God in a powerful way.  We also are praying for good health as many of us are coming down with a gross cold bug as well as safe travels :)  He has big things in mind for our youth group and I think this trip is going to be a milestone for many of our  great leaders. For everyone who is going don't forget your bible and a journal!  We are meet at the HUB at 4:00 to begin our exciting weekend.  Come with positive attitudes.  Remember from DNow weekend, it's not about you, stay other focused and God focused this weekend :)

Crossbridge youth steppin up

Shout out to Jordan "chitty cent" for an amazing concert. It's so awesome to watch God's children being used as an outreach. If you weren't able to make it you missed a passionate guy rapping about a topic he was passionate about.

I watched a teenager tonight who was praising God with song and dance and not caring what people think. Cool to be Part of the celebration in the gifts God has given him. God gifts people in different ways, how are you gifted and using God's gifts for his purpose? Can't wait to see God use you in big ways.

This Sunday we will have a party at the Hub instead of small group.
Don't forget we have another Olympiad night Wedsnday :)

Count down until ISYC 14 days :)

Fundraising

ICSY forms are available now!  Sign up soon! So you want to come to ICSY, but don't have $160.....  Why not raise some money?  There are always opportunities to raise money for any youth event by discussing options with Courtney.  We have several options available in the near future:


Premier Design Jewelry: September 23rd 7:00 at the HUB
If you pre-sold items 40% of the sales go directly into your account
All other sales will go into the youth account to help scholarship students


Garage Sale: October 1st 9:00-4:00 at the HUB
Sign up to serve at the church garage sale as a way to earn extra account money.  You may also bring items to donate for the sale.  All items will be for donation only. We are also planning to have a small back sale at our table.  Looking forward to another great year.  Last year we raised $450.


Newsboys Concert October 18th 6:00 at the Coliseum:
Global Tribe "Reach America Together" is the upcoming Newsboys concert.  Trinity Communication provided us with a flier to prompt the event.  It is our goal to hand out several fliers. Each person who attends the concert and turns in the flier with our youth's name on it, we earn $2.  What an easy way to bring in some cash!


Other Ideas:
We are considering other options for the future. 
Six Hour Serve: student would ask for hourly pledges, then serve at various locations
