Summer Dessert THIS WEDNESDAY! 6:30-830

Our annual Summer Dessert is a mere day away!

Come bring your family and friends as we eat some sweets and see and hear what happened on all our trips this summer.

We'll see videos of the middle school and high school summer camps and mission trips as well as hear stories from students.

It's always great to be able to look back at the busy summer and see what God was doing all around us!

And you'll also get to hear about all the happenings this Fall - like Pac Nite next week!

P.S. We didn't break a World Record last week but we thank everyone for their help in laying down a couple thousand feet of pennies! Fun was had and we learned a ton in case we decide to try it again next year.

Slideshow and next week

Here's The Winter Dessert Slideshow!

As the last post said, the link to our photo site where you can download any picture you saw in the slideshow is located here: www.hcc.smugmug.com/Middle-School/Winter-Retreat/Monopoly-2011

Remember to hover over any pictures you like and give them a thumbs up to have them show up on the front page of the site!

The link to the High School Slideshow of Beach Freeze is here: http://vimeo.com/20088159

Remember that next Wednesday is Ash Wednesday so instead of having youth group, we encourage our students to bring their friends and families to the Church-wide Ash Wednesday Service from 7-8pm. It's a great way to prepare for the Lent season leading up to Easter.

Youth Group for Middle School will then go back to it's original time of 5:43-7:15pm on March 16th with Fort Wars! (Stay tuned!)

Summer Dessert Tonight @ 6:30pm!

Come, bring your family and friends to our Middle School/High School combined Summer Dessert!

Hear and See what we did this summer and find out what's in store this Fall!

And we'll even feed you some dessert!

You might notice that they're on Vimeo and not on Youtube and that is because they kept muting the videos because of the music - but here they are in all their glory!
