Family & Youth Ministry Calendar

2009 National Youth Gathering:

It may seem early to start talking about an event that will take place in 2009; however, we will have to be ready to register for this event before the end of summer. This event will take place in New Orleans and will be completely different from other National Youth Gatherings in the past. We will have to start thinking about who plans on attending, set up a schedule to meet a few times during the summer, and start working on fundraising activities. Those who are currently (spring of 2008) in the 8th to 11th grades will be able to attend next year.

August 3 - 8: Mar-Lu-Ridge Camp Week

Everyone is invited to join Pastor Lewis at Mar-Lu-Ridge camp this week. This is the last week of the camp session. There are camps available for children and youth, ages 7 - 14. This is also the week of Family Camp. Families of all shapes and sizes are able to enjoy all aspects of this great place on top of the mountain. For more information, contact Pastor Lewis.


August 10, Sunday, 10 a.m. Between Services
Special Sunday Songs and Devotions

This is our second Sunday where we will get together, hopefully outdoors depending on weather, and sing some songs, games and a short devotion. These events are for people of all ages.


August 13, Wednesday, 10 a.m. - 7 p.m.: A Day on the National Mall

All youth are invited to join Pastor Lewis as we head into Washington, D.C. for a day at the National Mall. We will take the Metro into town and walk around the Mall and other parts of Washington, so wear good walking shoes

August 15, Friday, 8:00 p.m.: Strathmore Night at the Movies

Everyone is invited to join Pastor Lewis on the lawn at the Strathmore for a free movie. Come watch The Bee Movie and bring some snacks to share. Pastor Lewis usually sets his chairs up near the projection truck. Bring either low beach chairs or a blanket to sit on as we watch the movie under the stars. And maybe we can see some more shooting stars like we did last
year.

August 25, Monday, 1 p.m.: Youth Lunch

This is the last day before school starts, so come out to lunch at California Tortilla in the Cabin John Shopping Center (Corner of Tuckerman and Seven Locks). Free Chips and dip to everyone who is there on time. If you need a ride, give Pastor Lewis a call.

IMPROMPTU GET-TOGETHERS

During the summer Pastor Lewis also has impromptu get-togethers
for lunch, going to the movies, dinner, the amusement park and other great places. Keep an eye out on your email and in the bulletin for more information. If you have an idea for a get together, call or email Pastor Lewis.
