September Youth News

It's here! Time for our Wednesday evening activities to begin! But first...let's BREATHE together.

Breathe With Me

School has begun, and life may feel a little chaotic, weird, exciting, or uneasy. Let's take a second for a quick breath prayer together.

Find a comfortable seated position in a safe quiet space. Close your eyes and pay attention to your breath. You and God, alone in the quiet. For 10 breath cycles, pray the following:

Inhale: My soul finds rest
Pause.
Exhale: in God alone.

"For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken."
-Psalm 62: 1-2

Breathe, knowing that God moves in you and through you. Though life will throw some craziness your way, God is with you. You will not be shaken. 

How are you taking time to be still and find rest? Try to find time each day to breathe and rest your body and brain during the chaos of this school year. 

Confirmation

You're invited!! Our unoffical start to Confirmation will be Wednesday, September 16. Confirmation age youth are invited to gather together to do Pantry Prep on the 16th from 6:00-7:00 pm. Masks are required if you choose to come and help out! If you are not comfortable attending, no problem. Confirmation classes will begin on September 23 from 6:00-7:00 pm, outside on the front lawn!

Youth Group

David & I are missing you like crazy, and we are ready to see you! High School age youth are invited to join us outside (with masks) Wednesday September 16 at 7:00 pm for our first gathering in the last 6 months! We'll meet on the front lawn at the church for some fellowship and devotion time.

The plan moving forward will be to meet on Wednesday nights outside at church, weather permitting. Like most things in life right now, we'll take it week by week!

If you have questions text Kelsey at 402-980-1984.

I hope you are all staying safe and healthy! Missing you!

Peace,

Kelsey Ellis
