EVENINGS
From the desk of Rev. Rick Reineke – Youth Pastor
I want to thank everyone who attended the Valentines
Banquet and supported the event for the Youth as their fundraiser for their
summer camp. This was the main fundraiser for the Youths summer camp.
Please contact me if you have any odd jobs for the Youth to earn additional
money for camp. We have reservations for 15 youth and counselors for Snowbird
Outfitters in Andrews, NC. Camp will start June 9th 2008 and will last for five
days, we will be returning on June 13th. We need to confirm reservations for
all Youth planning to attend as soon as possible. A deposit of at least
$75.00 is required to hold your spot and those not able to afford that can make
arrangements. We need to know who wants to go as soon as possible.
All interested Youth should contact Kim or myself to reserve a spot if you
haven't already. The Youth from First Chipley UMC attended this camp two
summers ago and they have given it high marks for spiritual and leadership
growth. Pray for us that next summer will be just as spiritually
awakening for our UMYF. Total cost will be $330 per spot, balance will be
due one at least one month in advance of the camp. Scholarships are available.
Other news the annual Youth Spring Rally sponsored by the Alabama-West Florida
Annual Conference will be held the last weekend in April. The Spring Fling is
called “Dive In” and will be held at Shalimar Retreat Center at Panama City
Beach. The rally will begin Friday, April 25 and will end Sunday April
27. Cost per youth prior to April 1st will be $95 and after the 1st it
will increase to $119 per student. This includes lodging, meals and
programming events. On both of these events contact Kim Daniels or myself for
more details.
Blessings, Rev. Rick
The Bell Choir with our youth and our adult mentors made our first
appearance during the Christmas Season.
Thanks to those that came out and thanks to those that supported our
young bell ringers. Special thanks to
the mentors Bebe Ellis, Marlene Ray, Vonceil Coggin and Amelia Buchanan. We still can use some more youth and adult
mentors. No experience is necessary,
just a willingness to make a joyful noise.
Kim and I want to thank everyone who helped. Your support is appreciated.
Here’s What’s Scheduled:
UMYF will not meet during the month of July (vacation time)
