I forgot to post this

I was going through my drafts and found these one of my leaders typed them up a while ago and I edited it, but I forgot to post it so these are from April, but it's still what we did at home Groups.(youth Group)

Basilieos:
The girls had an adventure, packing into a cabin down deep in the woods. Our theme was: Basilieos, which means “royalty” in Greek. We talked about control, identity, and worship, while focusing on 1 Peter 2:9:
“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
I was encouraged to see how everyone just hung out together and talked, and how open everyone was.



Spaghetti Diner & Silent Auction Fundraiser:

The middle schoolers have been planning this event since January(remember this happened in April!). All the money donated from ticket sales & the silent auction is going to buy supplies and items for the Women's Center, a local crisis pregnancy center. We had about 25 items up for bid for the silent auction ranging from family outing baskets, date night baskets, man baskets, and more. We were so grateful for all the auction items that were donated! We still do not have an exact total, but God raised a tad over $1,000 through ticket sales and silent auction items! Praise Him!

Obssesions!




Hi people,
Ever notice how some people (including us sometimes) get extremely obsessed with things. Well something happened today that made it very clear.


Some of are families obsession items---

Webkinz, sports, friends, Internet, and TV, crafts,and reading.




So any way my friend and I where chating today. We had just answered one of those question things about your friend,One of the questions was..What would your friend take to dessert island? I said she would take ice cream, but she said she wouldn't take ice cream ( and she said I was crazy)
So I asked her what she would take,and she said the Bible!! Wow! That was not the response I was expecting. It started me thinking about life and how obsessed we are with things in America.

So yeah that is my story.
