ReChargeA weekly event devoted to addressing the things that we need most: strong relationships with Jesus and our peers and how to keep these relationships first in our lives despite the struggles we face. We address these through an in-depth study of the Bible. AMPA Teen Worship service & small group time designed for students to offer praise to God in a way that is authentic and pure.

The Calm Before the Storm

There is not much on the Calendar for April, but once May hits then Summer slams home and we will not know what hit us. So get through CRCTs, year-end exWhat: High School Summer ams, and all that and be ready for a nonConference stop summerSpeaking of summer

Take-over Lunch: Once

a month after Sunday Worship we as a youth group will go to a restaurant in town and eat together (Parents are encouraged to join in as well). This event can give you an excuse to bring that hard to bring friend by telling them that youll buy them lunch after church. Who would turn down free lunch?!

Where: Lee University in Cleveland, TN Who: All current 8th-12th Graders

When: July 7-13th Cost: Starts @ $300-See student packet for more details Why: Amazing week of worship and messages, Whitewater
Rafting, Staying on a College campus, Getting deeper with GOD daily, various tournaments, lots of youth group silliness, & MORE!!!

This is just another reminder to you all about the BIG summer trips that are coming in June and July: 1)MS Camp @ N. GA Christian Camp in June & 2)MOVE HS conference in July (See left column for more details) Also make sure your parents know about the Parent Info Meeting this Sunday during the 9:30am hour in the Gym. There will be a lot of stuff that gets talked about that they NEED to know for the summer AND Fall AND even through to next summer...hint, hint. For Camp and MOVE, start getting those deposits and payments in NOW or let me know if you will have trouble paying for the trip so we can work out a way to get you on the trip. MONEY CANNOT keep you from going on these trips this summer. Especially if you are an 8th grader and want to do both, I will do ALL I can to help make that happen.

Next Take-Over Lunch: 4/14 @ Wendys after Church!!
