Summer time is a huge time in the
life of our youth group!
All
youth can enjoy our
Monday Lunch
Bunch. Where to eat is decided on
Sunday during Outpost, and on
Monday, whoever wishes to show up,
can! It has always been an extremely
popular weekly event, and has been
enjoyed by more than just the youth!
Our Sherpas, and even several
parents have joined in on the fun!
Each Wednesday, the Senior High
youth can stop by our neighborhood
Escape, and enjoy a hot coffee,
or a cool smoothie, as well as good
company. The camaraderie that can be
find is a refreshing change of pace
for many of our Senior High Youth;
the Wednesday night trips to the
coffee shop are always enjoyed, and
never seem to last long enough.
Each year, The Mountain hosts Youth
Madness week. This is a week, at the
end of summer, in which the youth
group has a week jam-packed with fun
things to do. In years past,
activities have ranged from a Picnic
in the Park to a trip to Six Flags
to several awesome concerts! The
environment is loose, and there is
never a dull moment! It's a great
time to get to know new members of
the group, as well as to make new
friends, and encourage outreach into
the community, in a no-pressure
atmosphere.
Outpost is also a very fun time in
the youth group, as the structured,
lesson-oriented restraints of the
school year are discarded for a more
care-free environment. This ranges
from laid-back discussion groups
about current events and issues
debated upon all over the world, to
The Gospel According to the Simpsons,
to Fun and Games. It always proves
to be a fun way to spend the summer
learning (in a fun way!) about God. |
