Pizza & Praise! Bring $3

Hey all! Tomorrow we will be breaking bread together (eating pizza) and then follow that with ways to worship our God!

Bring $3 for the grub.

Next week is IIT316 and CHILL on 11/5 (Middle School Hangout at Chapel Hill).

THEN...Our Overnighter! There will be no youth group @5:43pm and instead we'll meet at 9pm after High School is done and go crazy all night until 10am the next morning (No School due to Veterans Day). A registration form will be available at youth group the next few weeks so pick one up!
