Youth News

June 2007


This past month…

The Basket Raffle/Bingo Night was a big success.  Thanks to Terry Scott who spearheaded the event, and thank you to all our young people who helped in making it such a great event.  Over 100 people attended BINGO, and the event raised over $1200 in our fight against cancer.

Thanks to the youth and everyone that helped at the Church Cleanup Day.  As we beautify our own homes, it is also good to beautify the house of God. 

At the time of this article, we had not yet had our Miniature Golf event.

Upcoming in the summer…
