New Point Groups

Steep Incline will not meet for the remainder of the year due to Jay Johnston’s absence for several weeks and the holiday schedule. 

Discussion regarding interest from youth regarding Steep Incline. 

Melissa stated that she felt like it was great with a balance of the bible study with fun at night but that too make it more study was just too much.  It would be great to have a more serious and focused Outpost.

Rachel felt it may just be too intense, beyond what their group is ready for.  As for offering only for Jr & Srs in High School, they are so busy with college applications, pt jobs, classes, etc., and it was so hard to add that in the schedule.

 

Youth Room

Base board was placed two weeks ago with youth & adult help.  The dividers were assembled only to realize they are too tall.  Work is still continuing.  Please contact Harry Anderson to find out day/time he will be there working to assist.  It’s going to take work getting things ready so we can once again break into our Jr & Sr High groups.

Note added 11/11 – A work crew will be meeting to work on the portable Sat. Nov 15 at 8 am.

 

Holiday Mission Project:

Suggestions were made regarding adopting an angel from the angel tree and visiting at a nursing home then opened for suggestions.

It was suggested that the residents of the nursing home loved having their doors decorated for the holiday.  It was a unanimous vote.  Cathy will contact CC Young and homes closer to AUMC to arrange. 

It was decided to promote bringing gently used or new donated Christmas decorations to the youth room by Dec 7 and act in mission on the morning of Dec 14 during Outpost.

 

Christmas Party

Suggested time proposed for Sunday night Dec 14 before or after the Christmas Pageant.  Youth liked having it in the new room and after the Christmas Pageant, 7-8:30pm with White Elephant Gift Exchange.

 

Holiday in the Park

Trip proposed and accepted for Dec 7.  Time decided by those in attendance as 12:45pm – 8pm .  Confirmation Class will be joining us.   Cost of tickets $19.99 and this year offering an optional meal ticket with choice of chicken fingers or cheeseburger w/ fries and a drink for $8.  This assures for some parents that their child will have more than just the sugary snacks.
