DODGEBALL SATURDAY

October 24, 2011

Don’t forget that THIS SATURDAY is our Dodgeball Tournament fundraiser!  If you are playing be sure to be at the church at 10am to register.  If you are not playing, come and enjoy some free entertainment cheering your friends on!

Don’t forget about our upcoming Dodgeball Tournament! Funds from this event will  go towards our goal of raising $2000 in order to plant a church in India in an area of need through CICM!  If you are playing, don’t forget the registration cost and form are due October 3rd.  If you are not playing, please come anyway and watch the action and cheer us on!  There will be refreshments and snacks for sale with proceeds going to the youth group.  This event is going to be great!  Please join us in having fun for a great cause!  Also, you can make a donation without stepping foot on the playing field, just bring a check made out to South Lansing Christian Church with the words “India Church Plant” in the memo and turn it in at the dodgeball registration table.

If you need another registration form please find the downloadable PDF at seekstudyserve.org or grab one from the church office.  Thank you for your support!

We will be starting our new Imagine series this next week in both Modified and The Flood!  I can’t wait to teach through this series on what our lives could look like if we could imagine them as being Christ-centered.

We will be having Modified Sunday Night, September 4th!  We will be meeting outside behind the farmhouse to play football, volleyball, have worship, and have a bonfire with smores!

IMAGINE TEACHING SERIES

August 29, 2011

This fall both The Flood and Modified will be teaching through a series along with the entire church we are calling “Imagine”.   Each week the Middle School and High School groups will be studying the same Scripture and Biblical point that the church as a whole will be studying on Sunday morning, just altered to directly communicate with them in an appropriate way for your student in their unique place in life.  This series will take a look at what we can imagine our lives to be like if Christ was at the center.  We are going to imagine a Christ-centered life at school, within the family, among friends, in the area of money and contentment, and every aspect of a person’s life.

This Sunday night, August 21st at 6pm, we will be having an all-ages prayer and worship event at South Lansing Christian Church.  Please come as a family and join us as we seek God for direction for this upcoming school year. Do to this special event, we will not be having Modified at the regular 7pm time, Modified will be participating in this prayer event.

On Wed August 3rd we will be having a Middle School only pool party at Chad’s house from 6:30pm to 8pm.  Please don’t drop your child off to the church on Aug 3rd, just bring them to  Chad’s house with bathing suits (no bikinis please) and towels ready to have some fun swimming, playing games, eating food, and enjoying the summer!  If you would like to send a snack or something to pass with your son or daughter we would greatly appreciate it.

Words cannot express the impact that Matt and Carrie Hamel have had on the lives of countless students through their faithful service in the youth ministry of South Lansing Christian Church.  They have been a faithful example of servant leadership, faithful devotion, and Christian marriage to generations of students.  This past Sunday at Modified we celebrated and thanked the Hamel’s for who they are to us.  Due to some family health issues and an ever increasing work schedule, the Hamel’s are stepping down from serving as volunteers in the youth ministry for the time being.  If you know this family, please join us in showing your gratitude to them!  We cannot wait until they are able to rejoin our team of volunteers sometime in the hopefully not too distant future.

Our High School youth group, Modified, and our High School volunteer staff would like to welcome our current 8th graders to the next level!  As of Saturday June 18th, you will no longer be a part of The Flood Middle school group, but joining the ranks of our high schoolers in Modified!

To welcome you, we want to invite you to an event designed just for you!  We will start the day with just Freshmen and volunteers in a Film Fest competition to see who can create the best movie in just a few short hours.  This will be followed by a pool party at Chad’s house (4140 Turnbridge Dr Holt, MI) with the entire high school youth group there to meet you and welcome you into the group!

Can’t wait for this event!

Faith. Hope. Love.

Chad
