Youth - May 2008
Youth News
I usually look forward to May with the beautiful warmer
weather, the end of the school year, upcoming vacations and
long, lazy summer days. This year though, I'm seeing the
down side of May. Last year, my first as St. E's Youth
Coordinator, was a year where no one graduated or left our
Youth Group family. This May we are celebrating with the
famous "Daniels" as they graduate from Farragut High, and we
are truly proud and happy for Daniel Chelette and Daniel
Lewis. You will accomplish great things in college and
beyond, but we will miss you mucho!! Our entire community is
blessed to have you in our lives!!
We have some great events coming in May, starting with
Youth Sunday on May 4 when the 10:15 service will be lead by
the youth. St. E's will also be honoring our graduating
seniors during this service. Also on the 4th, from
4:00-6:30, we’ll plan and prepare for Mother's Day Dinner.
Yes, we are making dinner for our Mom's on May 11 and will
be planning the menu, making gifts , and playing some games
on the 4th. (It's time for a ping pong/ four square
rematch!) at the church.
Our Mother's Day Dinner is on Sunday, May 11. Come at 4:00
to begin preparing our feast. We're making crepes and
chocolate-covered strawberries among other delicacies, and
dinner starts at 6:00.
On the 18th is the parents vs. kids softball game and
cookout. WE WANT A REMATCH!!! We're gathering at Anchor Park
once again for our annual softball game vs. the parents. The
kids have looked great in spring
training. The addition of Kalliope "the slugger" and Zoe
"speed racer" to our lineup has the parents more than a
little nervous. We'll play ball at 4:00, and have our
cookout after the routing...I mean game.
Summer!
We have plans for a beach party at the Concord Yacht
Club, biking the Virginia Creeper Trail, swimming and pizza
at the Oak Ridge Pool, and the confirmation class will be
making a pilgrimage! We are planning a fundraising spaghetti
supper for Friday, JUNE 6. Watch for more information
regarding this fun event!
