Friday Night Youth Friday Night youth is going really well, we have a good core of about 13 young people who gel really well together, we went to see a Christian singer/song writer on the 11th October and we may be going to see another Christian band play at a gig connected to the school’s mission at Gartree High School.
Sunday
Morning Youth Our Sunday morning group is growing and
running well, we have been exploring the relevance of the 10 commandments,
which has provoked some brilliant discussions. As you may have noticed we have
been looking to engage our young people in serving in our family services, in
drama and worship, with a drama planned for the Christmas eve service so watch
this space J
CY We’re now on week 6! How time has flown. We
have a group of 8 young people, which is a mixture of our Sunday morning and
Friday night young people. We meet together, eat, play games and look at a
different aspects of the Gospel message each week. The course ends with a
feedback form to reflect on the difference the course has made and what they
may like to do next, whether that is to join our Sunday morning group or to
explore confirmation or baptism.
Beauchamp
CU This term we have changed our room, our
publicity and started with a passion and drive to try and encourage more people
to be part of the group. The numbers have already tripled and it’s going really
well. We now have a leadership team made up of students and the youth workers
involved and we’re looking into different mission ideas to connect with the
rest of the school.
Gartree
Gartree CU continues to attract a lot of
young people who don’t have any connection with church, which is great. On the
1tth November the Christian band twelve twenty four are coming to the school to
run a weeks mission including assemblies, RE lessons and a gig at the end of
the week, Luke (OBC), Josh (St Luke’s) and I will be heavily involved with
that, which is exciting.
Manor
Manor CU continues to draw a variety of
people from all sorts of backgrounds and religions. We have been running
sessions on our identity in Christ. We have also done harvest assemblies and
will be coming back to do Christmas assemblies in a few weeks time and at the
end of that week, we’ll be running a “grill a Christian” lunchtime event to
invite students to come and ask big questions about faith.
Please
continue to pray for our young people, God has really blessed us in the last
year and we pray in expectation that He can do even more
