4HG Youth January 5th

Posted on January 3, 2024

Happy New Year Everyone! 

It is a new year and we have a new opportunity to connect and build relationships with one another and with Jesus! 

We have some exciting events coming up that we can’t wait to jump into with you! 

Since covid we have stayed away from snacks that are not prepackaged. But this new year we want to give opportunity for parents to get involved again in different ways. The first way is going to be for parents who want to help with snacks. If that is you please contact Erika Cooper who will be excited to collaborate with you! (erikacooper0101@gmail.com)

We have some exciting events coming up to mark your calendars on! 

This Friday (Jan 5th) we have a Guest Speaker Alexis join us to talk about what God’s been doing in her life since she stepped into the missionary field!

The following week (Jan 12th) there is a missionary couple who are going to present their lives as missionaries at Rowandale Church, and we’ve been invited to join them (feel free to discuss some carpooling opportunities with your friends) 

And one more exciting Missionary event we will be attending as a Youth group of going to be the Manitoba Mission Fest especially the Friday Event on February 2nd. 

I dont know if you’re noticing a theme… but I think God might have something in store for us this year to help us focus on the great commission in Matthew 28. 

I hope to see you all for these exciting events!

Posted on December 17, 2023

Hey All,

Merry Christmas!! I hope you’re all ready and excited for this weekend! We want to be part of that joy as a youth group.

This Friday we will have our cozy Movie night. So come in your sweats, your Pj’s, bring your pillows and blankets if you want. We’ll have a snack and watch a great movie together to close out the year. We will have time at the end of the night for some small group time and gym time!

Merry Christmas and a Happy new year!
