The Blog is Back!

 Dear KCC YOUTH Fans!

The Student Ministry blog is back!  How long depends on YOU!  If you read it, we will post.  The intent is to keep you informed of what is going on with  youth group at church.  So, please keep me motivated to take the time to post by just letting me us know you read it.  Please give feedback.  If I make a joke, tell me how bad it was.  If I throw Ruby or Rob under the bus, give them a hard time!  If a make typos, volunteer to be my editor.  Oh, wait!  That won’t happen – I’m a certified English teacher (and VERY humble too.  LOL).  Well, it could happen – but more because of the lack of carrots in my diet.  NO!  It’s not age that is making my eyes go bad.  I can’t believe THAT!

We hope to see ALL parents of middle & high schoolers at the Quarterly Parent Meeting after church on Sunday, Feb. 23 at 12:30pm in the student center.  Light refreshments, lots of information, and some time to connect with other parents.  Please make a point of attending.

SHOW THE LOVE
Lisa Tingstad and her auction fundraising committee (Cindy Scott, Amanda Beller, Candice Brandenburg-Wong, Trisha Hordan, Rob Merrill and Ruby Varghese) have been hard at work preparing for the March 8th  Show the Love Auction.  What can you do to support them?  Glad you asked!!  First, please buy your tickets to go to the Auction on March 8th…. and invite your family, friends, and neighbors to attend with you.  It will be a nice night of fellowship, dessert, entertainment by our youth at the talent show, and buying items at the silent auction to support our youth programs – especially the high school mission trip to Detroit in July.  The second thing you can do ASAP is procure something to be donated – a gift card at your favorite restaurant or nail salon (or anywhere you frequent – just ask!); your own services (deliver a home cooked meal, help with taxes, childcare, host a ladies night out Bunco party, or couples….options are endless, be creative); or re-gift a NEW Christmas present that you just don’t need.  For this fundraiser to be another huge success, we need lots of items for people to bid on.  Please help.

I will soon be posting about some past events – Blizzard for middle schoolers and MUD Retreat & Winter Party for high schoolers so stay tuned for reports on the last few youth events.  And look forward to future reports on the Sex, Drugs & Rock-n-Roll HS series, MS series on Justice, as well as the Ash Wednesday service on March 5.
