Sunday night was our Summer Kick-off for Jr. High & Sr. High. We went to the Liabenows home for a pool party, cook-out and games outside. We had around 20 teens. It rained and stormed all afternoon, and then cleared up late afternoon. It was clear and even partly sunny for the remainder of the evening. Not an hour after we got home, it began to thunder and lightning again. Praise the Lord for giving us exactly the weather we needed! We will continue to meet most Sunday nights through the summer, just taking a couple off when we are away at camp.
Tonight ~ Beach Bums Game in T.C. with ~30+ people attending from our church. This begins our Wednesday night activities throughout the summer for JH/SH again. Other Activities include: frisbee golf, patriot games, putt-putt golfing, softball, and a pool party.
Tues., June 17 ~ A concert by Calvary Bible College, followed by volleyball and pizza with the teens. (This replaces our Wed. night activities for the week.
Wed., June 18 ~ Dinner and an informational meeting at our house for ~12 or so people hosting different College Meetings throughout the summer.
Sat., June 21 ~ Sunday School Picnic at church
Mon., June 23 - Sat., June 28 ~ Jr. High Camp at the Springs ~ Bart is speaking for the week. I will be speaking Wednesday morning to the girls only. (Please pray for me on this one.)
Thurs., July 3 - Sat., July 5th ~ Mini-vacation for us in G.R./Holland visiting with family
Sun., July 6 - Sat., July 12th ~ Sr. High Camp at the Springs. We will probably just go for a couple of days at the beginning of the week, come home for Wed. night activities, return Friday to be there for the end of the week and bring campers home Saturday.
Then we're home for 2 weeks. (I think...)
Sat., July 26 - Fri., Aug. 1st ~ At Gull Lake Bible Conference for the week with a few families from church.
Mon., Aug. 4 - Fri., Aug. 8, 6:30 - 8:30 PM ~ Vacation Bible School at Rollins
We're still trying to schedule one more teen event in August along with a vacation for Bart and I to get away for a few days also.
So, I'm not sure we should call it summer "Break", because it sure doesn't sound like much of a break, does it? Well it is a break from the normal routine for teens. We do have a lot going on though this summer. Again, thank you for your prayers for us and our ministry.
