Merry Christmas!!!
December 2022
It's that time of year again to put ornaments on trees, eat those sugar cookies, and look at the crazy Christmas lights. And for those of you who know Spanish, mas is more. So that means this time of year we can focus on mas Christ!
However, this season can be hard for some. It can bring stress, pain, and tears. So whatever you're going through this Christmas season, I hope the peace, joy, and comfort of Christ comes to you and your loved ones this time of year.
We all had some crazy fun times in November with Wurstbraten, the annual Hayride, the annual Friendsgiving, and even more fun!
Thanks again to all who attended the parent meeting! It was awesome to see so many people come out, support their youth, and learn more about the future of youth ministry! If you'd like more information about that, let me know! I'd appreciate all who couldn't make it to fill out the information form I sent!
December in Jr. High will be fast and fun! (Just like all of our junior high youth!)
