End of April & May 2021 Youth Schedule for Christ United Methodist Church
Selinsgrove, PA
Sunday, April 25 from 6pm to 7:30pm Youth Group outside with food at the Outdoor Worship Center (OWC)/Pavilion
Wesley Forest Day on Sunday, May 23 from 1pm to 5pm (for the whole family - cost $3 a person with Pizza, Drinks and snacks provided) ~ We are booked to go
Saturday, May 29 - Cole Orner Eagle Scout Work on New Ga-Ga Pit ~ More details to come, Cole is also selling Whoopie Pies to raise additional funds - let us know if you would like to purchase and I will send along to Lisa Orner
Unsure of other May events yet - more to come
Looking even more ahead: Annual youth retreat at Wesley Forest for Friday night, November 5 to Sunday morning, November 7, 2021 (booking this week with Emily)
Additionally, I know our youth leaders are working with the youth on several ideas for some Summer events. We are working on HalfWay Dam Trip, Mini Golf, Ga-Ga Pit Construction (Cole Orner's Eagle Scout Project), IMPACT at Green Hills possibility, Drive-In Movie Night and more - stay tuned!
Additional Note for Scheduling: Looking ahead to Confirmation Class for all incoming sixth (6th) through eighth (8th) graders plus any high schoolers who have not had the opportunity to take the class: Classes will be once a month on a Sunday afternoon from September 2021 to May 2022 from 4pm to 5:30pm followed by dinner with the whole youth group. These dates for classes will correspond to one of the two dates each month that youth group will be on for the 2021-2022 School Year.
Confirmation class will meet on the following dates (please mark your calendars now) ~ September 12, October 10, November 7, December 5, January 16, February 13, March 13, April 10, and May 22 with Pentecost Sunday, where the Youth will join the Church, on June 5, 2022.
If we do a retreat on November 5 through November 7, then Pastor Ryan would do the hour and a half class with the Confirmands sometime during the Retreat as we would not come back in November 7 to have a separate Confirmation Class & Youth Group
Blessings
In Christ,
Pastor Ryan
