Grace and peace.
It is the beginning of the busy season of Christmas: putting the final touches on the decorations, putting together the Christmas gatherings and menus, getting gifts for the family and friends, getting gifts for sponsored and foster children, and so on. As you go through this season I pray that you are able to take time to relax and enjoy this time of year. I am thankful for all that y’all are doing for youth ministry. May God bless y’all and the youth ministry. May we hold on to the hope, peace, joy, and love that Advent brings all year long. I am looking forward to what is to come in the new year.
Until,
Justin Wells
We have an application form for those youth who would like to be a part of the District Youth Leadership Team. The district has been divided into 5 sub-districts and it would be great to have at least two youth from each district (there is a list on the form). To apply go to https://forms.gle/xPzo4tCnHC6kUmun9.
The district is still collecting information of the youth leaders, paid and volunteer, in the district. If you have yet to fill out this form, please take a minute to fill it out so that we have the latest contact information. Pastors, if you have a youth ministry at your church, please pass this link along to the leader(s). https://forms.gle/aCYiuEhx4JqcoC1SA
What is your youth group doing – working in the community, ongoing mission, back to school bash – then the district wants to hear about it. I am looking for stories of youth in action to highlight it in the newsletter. Send me an email or give me a call.
The district youth have a FaceBook page (https://www.facebook.com/FairwayDistrictYouthNCCUMC),
an Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/fairwaydistrictyouth/),
and a website (https://fairwaydistrictnc.org/youth/).
I invite you to follow and like the social media pages and bookmark the website.
If you have any questions, concerns, comments, or ideas you can send me, Justin Wells, an email at jwells@nccumc.org or call me at 910-591-8156.
