Weekly Gatherings
Wednesday Nights: Hearts. Bring your own dinner at 6. Youth group from 6:45-8:00. We introduce the passage/theme for the week in a way that we hope resonates with students’ hearts. These times are for “normal” Wednesdays that are not 4 for 30’s or Roots. Dinner will be provided on 4 for 30 Wednesdays. Dinner is also served at Roots, but requires registering and paying.
Sunday Mornings: Minds. Bible class from 9:30-10:15. We dive deeper into the week’s passage/theme by asking questions of the text.
Sunday Afternoons/Evenings: Hands. Jesus Practice! The way we do Jesus Practice is changing! See details below!
The Future Jesus Practice
Starting this semester we’ll be shifting the focus of our Jesus Practice events. Jesus Practice is meant to be the time we live out the “hands” portion of our mission statement. Therefore, instead of small group discussion we’ll be pivoting to using Jesus Practice events as an opportunity to serve.
Revised Common Lectionary
Beginning in February LYF will be selected our scriptures for weekly teachings as well as the scriptures for our bible reading plan from The Revised Common Lectionary. This is a tool used by thousands of churches all over the world to direct their worship, preaching, teaching, and devotional practices.
February Dates
2/1-Jesus Practice: Our plan is to visit the Park View Senior Living Facility off Middlebrook pike. We’ll lead some songs, activities, and share in some good conversation with the residents there. The plan is to meet at Laurel at 2:00pm and to be back by 4:30pm.
2/8-Jesus Practice: Due to the Super Bowl Jesus Practice on this Sunday will be held after church. We’ll have lunch together before going out to our service project. This is presently still in the works. I’d love to be able to do some yard work a member in need. If anyone knows of any needs we could meet let me know. I’ll send updated details via remind as we firm up our plans.
2/13-15-Winterfest: Click here for all Winterfest info!
2/18-Roots: A monthly Wednesday night gathering for the whole church to share a meal, worship, and conversation together. LYF won’t meet separately on Roots Wednesdays as LYF students and families are encouraged to fully engage with Roots.
2/22-Leader Night: 4:30-7:30 for adult and student leaders.
2/25-4 for 30: A monthly Wednesday LYF event where we meet from 6-8. Dinner is provided and it is free! We have 30 minutes to eat, 30 minutes to serve, 30 minutes to connect with each other, and 30 minutes to connect with God.
