Youth News week of July 6

Here is what's going on this week 7/6.

Last week we continued our summer program, "Marvel Week #2: Gifts & Talents-Our Super Powers"

We begin to work on our "utility belts." You discovered some of the gifts and talents that are given to us by God. Some of the gifts we included on our belts:

-Good listener                               -Musical Talents                                    

-Ability to heal others                   -Powerful Faith Community

-Spreading of Joy through Smiles                          

Think about the gifts and talents you have!

Youth Group this week:  Marvel #3: Identity & Courage: The Code of a Hero

This week we'll continue to discover who we are and how we act in the world. Youth will then consider how their beliefs and actions are similar or different. They will then have the opportunity to discuss the power of courage and how we become extraordinary when we are able to be brave and live out our faith in the face of situations that may be difficult to do so.

concerns. For parents you will find all the important forms to download and fill out for your youth to participate in activities, retreats, and events.
