Group Nite! Prizes for Clever Halloween Costumes!

We're back from our Fall Retreat at Camp of the Cascades!  

Consider dusting off an old (or new!) costume for our costume contest Wednesday night!

Then we'll recap a bit on all that happened on the retreat, play some games and finish the night in our guy/girl small groups with our last lesson in the 3 part series on living a missional life!

Lots to cover to finish out our October so come and bring a friend!

Next week Jen will be out of town but our Associate Pastor Mike Stelle will be filling in with some crazy games and going through what Jr High was like for him!

So who are you bringing?  

Parents, consider offering to transport your students friends to eliminate as many obstacles as possible.  Maybe offer to pick them up if the other family would drop off after?  Get creative!

Group Nite! Fall Retreat Registration Due Soon!

For our second Group Nite of the school year, we are going to continue looking at what it means to live a Missional Life.  This week’s lesson was built around Matthew 9:35-36. This passage is one of several places in the Gospels where Jesus is described as having great compassion toward hurting people. The compassion was often felt toward large groups of people; many of these people were physically sick, and all of them needed spiritual healing, too.

So come out tonight, bring a friend and after running around a bit we will be breaking into our guy and girl small groups and going through the lesson with them.

Also, THIS is the last week to turn in Fall Retreat registrations and this will be our last Wednesday night to turn them in as well!  Next Wednesday will be too late!  So get your forms in.  They can be found at church and online (www.hccfuel.com). Drop them off at the lock box outside of room 106 in the Education wing or if it's after hours, in our mailbox located behind the church by the portables.

Here's a quick video from last year!




NEXT WEEK is our first Mass Hangout of the schoolyear!  This night is built for inviting your friends so plan ahead on who you want to invite.  Also remember to talk to your parents about possibly needing to give rides for your friends to try to eliminate as many obstacles as possible for them!

Pizza & Praise Tonight! (Bring $3 for a Pizza Dinner)

Come tonight with $3 to share a Pizza dinner with all your friends followed by Praising our God through song!

Next week we will continue our Group Nite series!

If you haven't signed up for our Fall Retreat that is at the end of this month, forms are at church or can be printed from our website (www.hccfuel.com).  Contact Jen with any questions!  There is also a way to sign up for both the Fall Retreat and our Summer Mission Trip (The Nez).

See you tonight!

Group Nite!

It's our first Group Nite of the school year!

We'll kick off with some games and finish the night by splitting up into guys and girl groups to go over our 3 part series on what it means to have a "missional lifestyle".  We do this because we realize that having a small group is important and we desire to give our students a taste of that.  And we also know that even though the information is the same, guys and girls (and even grades) process them differently and we want to provide a place to do that!

This Wednesday we will be going over Romans 3:9-28 which talks about how we all are in need of salvation and how when we experience true forgiveness, how that should change how we live our lives.

And just a friendly reminder, our Fall Retreat is THIS month from Oct. 25-27 and the "$10 Discount" deadline is Oct. 11th!

And we also have Registration out for our Summer Mission Trip to Idaho!  It's out early so that we can be helping students with year round fundraisers including the Poinsettia one they can be doing right now!

There is also a way for them to sign up for both trips, have your student bring home the sheet explaining how or contact Jen Easton soon!
