Youth Ministry Update: Jan. 2008

· For this month on Sunday mornings, the high school class is going through the series of classes with the college and adults on this year’s theme “Loving One Another”. If you are participating in the other classes please spend time talking about the classes and how you as a family can incorporate different ideas and aspects of the theme into your daily lives.
