May 25-27: Spirit West Coast, Del Mar - This amazing Christian music festival is a wonderful weekend experience.

Weekend-Long tickets are about $100 dollars per person; when you buy your tickets, let me know - that's how we're doing sign-ups. From there, I'll be working out transportation and accommodations. Talk to me for more details. I have 4 weekend tickets available for a small discount, if you're looking to save a little money.

Youth Praise Band - That's right; we're getting rehearsals off the ground. The idea is to invite ALL who are looking to jam for Jesus. We'll focus on refining the playing and singing skill of everyone who wants to be involved. Practices will be open to as many people who want to come. This way, we can have MORE youth involved with music practice regularly. Additionally, we'll have more people available when Randall looks to schedule the Youth Praise Band for Sabbath. For me, this is my hope and dream to maximize the amount of people in music. Also, it will help us to all be on the same page with practice. Think of this like a musical small group. We'll practice at a goal of 2 Mondays per month. Contact Pastor John for more details.

Thursdays, 4-5:15: Youth Small Group - After school on Thursdays, I host a small group Bible study open to all youth. Pretty straight-forward, and I'm pretty excited about it too.

THIS WEEKEND:

Sabbath School: Come and join us at 10:30 a.m. for our Sabbath School.

If you were part of the old Young Adults Ministries Facebook Page then you should have gotten a message asking you or telling you how to join the new page. If not, or if you ARE NOT on our FACEBOOK page then please get on there. Just go to Facebook and search for The Place Young Adult Ministries and join the group. It's where we update all of our info each week and post pictures of what we're up to.
