FLOOD LOCK-IN 2012

February 2, 2012

The Flood will be having a lock-in on Friday February 24th form 9pm through 7am!  This event will include pizza, dodgeball, worship, Nerf, video games, and a trip to Zap Zone where we have rented the entire facility to ourselves for some lazer tag!  Please not that nobody will be allowed into the church after 10pm when we lock the doors or allowed to leave before 7am unless previously noted on the permission form (available every Wednesday night) for safety reasons.  Parents, PLEASE be sure to have a ride ready to pick your student up AT 7am… our volunteers are old and will be ready for bed!

New Flood series “WHY?”

January 19, 2012

We have started a new series in The Flood we are calling “WHY?”. This series will be looking at the “why questions” of the Christian faith like why we pray, why we read the Bible, why we choose purity and more. I am excited to see the impact this series has on our students as most of these questions have come from them!

Some questions to ask at home:

1) Which “why question” did you study this week?

2) What was the answer given?  How do you feel about this answer?

3) What was your favorite discussion from small group this week?

The Middle School Guys Small Groups Nerf Day has been rescheduled for this Wed January 4th from 6pm – 8:30pm!  Pizza and pop will be provided!

Sorry, but the Middle School guys Nerf day at the church has been postponed.  We will inform everyone of the new date as soon as we can.  Sorry for the short notice

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.

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.

The Flood has started a new teaching series titled “The Narrow Path”.  We will be looking at Biblical characters who chose to take the narrow path, to do the right thing, to do the hard thing… even though doing the opposite would have been easier.

Questions to ask at home:

1) What Bible story was taught tonight?

2) What “narrow path” were you challenged to take?

3) What was your favorite part of this weeks Flood?

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.

What we now know is that teenagers pretty much follow in the faith footsteps of their parents.  If parents are following Jesus, there’s a good to excellent chance their kids will follow Jesus too.  If they aren’t, they won’t.  There are no guarantees, of course, but parents function as the spiritual leaders in their home whether they want to or not. That’s their role, given to them by God.          - Wayne Rice
