JUNIOR HIGH MISSION 2005
August 30 - September 1, 2005


TUESDAY, AUGUST 30 - Meet at the church at 9:00 am, prepare a meal for about 40 people, and deliver it to Ronald McDonald House, where we will tour the facilities and learn of their work in our community. Parents will pick up youth at the church at 4:00 pm when we return.
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 31 - Meet at the church at 9:00 am and head out to Cameron Community Ministries where we will help out in the food cupboard, clothing center, and other areas of service. Following Cameron, we will go to the Seneca Park Zoo where we will have a pizza dinner and explore the zoo in the dark. Bring your flashlights and sleeping bags. We will then spend the night at the activity center there.
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 - In the morning we will meet zoo crews and find out what we can do to help out there. Parents will pick up youth at the zoo at 2:00 pm on Thursday afternoon.

FALL RETREAT
October 28-30, 2005


We will be looking at youth leadership of our various programs (This is YOUR program and we want you to be the driving force behind it!), and planning for our Youth Sunday on November 20th this year. Since we are staying in town for this event, the charge for the weekend is an affordable $10.00 per student.

It will be a time of both work and fun, games and activities that bind us together in God’s Love, and a time of exploring how youth can “take charge” of Sunday evenings and other events. There will be an opportunity to meet with the Youth of Lake Avenue Baptist Church on Saturday afternoon, and we will share worship with their church community on Sunday morning at 10:00, with some of their youth involved in the service.

We will meet Friday afternoon at 4:30 at Third Church and “check in” at Lake Avenue at 5:00. The weekend will conclude at 11:30 on Sunday morning, and we will return to Third Church for parent or guardian pick-up at noon.
