Buy Stock! Invest in the Youth!
This will be the last week for you to purchase a certificate of stock to support the youth who are attending the National Youth Event. Each of these certificates cost $20 at minimum. The certificate entitles the holder to a seat at our stockholder’s dinner on Sunday, August 28, where the youth will serve and give a presentation on their trip. Look for a youth member in the front lobby/Narthex with a large white envelope to invest today!
Youth Car Wash Fundraiser
Who doesn’t enjoy a shiny, clean car? The youth will be hosting a car wash fundraiser on Saturday, April 2 from 8 am-1 pm in the church’s front parking lot. Donations will be accepted to help fund the youth’s trip to the National Youth Event.
Let’s Talk: How to Have a Lifelong Conversation about Sex
Do you want television, movies, advertising, and misinformed peers to teach your children about sexuality? Unless YOU start this conversation early, these less-than-healthy and misleading sources of information will be their go-to reference!
Come learn proven tips and strategies for how to have real, honest conversations with your children (and grandchildren) about sexuality and making healthy choices. This valuable workshop will be held Sunday April 3 (that’s one week from today!) from 6:30-8 pm in Rooms 308-310, The workshop is FREE and includes FREE childcare in the Fellowship Hall. See today’s bulletin insert for more information. RSVP to Flo Waldron at waldr005@umn.edu, or just show up. We hope to see you there!
