This Week @ St. John's (Spring Forward Edition)

Happy Friday everyone!

I hope that everyone has had a wonderful week. I'm glad I've gotten to see y'all outside of St. John's in plays and other activities. We've got another fun weekend coming up!

This Sunday, we'll meet at St. John's at 5 for dinner, then walk to Hand Middle School for a KICKBALL EXTRAVAGANZA!!! Please wear clothes appropriate for playing kickball, and I'd also suggest bringing a water bottle as well. We'll return to St. John's by 7.

Every Wednesday this month, we will meet at St. John's at 5:15 for our Lenten program "The Gospel According to Willy Wonka." We'll be watching "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory" and discussing how the movie relates to the Bible and what life lessons we can learn from the movie. We'll also spend this time packing bags for the Helping Hands Weekend Food Program. And we'll join the rest of the church at 6 for dinner!

March 18th we'll meet at St. John's for this month's Centennial Celebration EYC Activity. Bryana will lead a program discussing "Who is St. John?" and we'll talk about St. John and also have a fun activity to help us learn more about him!



New Beginnings is coming up! Jr. High Students grades 6-8 are encouraged to attend this wonderful weekend at Camp Gravatt. Registration costs $75 and forms are due April 13th. Please contact me if you need any more information! Registration forms can be found here

Please let me know if you are playing any sports this Spring, or are in any plays or have any other fun activities going on. I'd love to come out and support you and what you do!

I'm still trying to figure out a date for Paintball, so please let me know when works best for you!

Also, don't forget that we have an All Ages Lock-In on April 20th-21st. That is a Friday Night-Saturday Morning event, and there will be no EYC that Sunday. I hope everyone can come, as it looks like we might have some friends from other churches in the Diocese join us that weekend!

Don't forget that we "Spring Forward" into Daylight Savings Time this Sunday, so be sure to set your clocks one hour ahead on Saturday night so that you don't miss church or EYC on Sunday!

I'll see everyone Sunday! Don't forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter if you haven't already! Have a great weekend!

Peace,

Clay.
