THE FLAMINGOS ARE HERE!!  This fun fundraiser will benefit our National Youth Conference fund.  Anyone can have a flamingo placed in someone else's yard for a $5 contribution.  To rid yourself of the "flock" you may find in your yard, contact a youth to come and take them away for a $10 contribution.  Then to assure that you will not be "hit" again, a $10 contribution will "buy" you "Flamingo Insurance".  If anyone has questions, please contact any Youth or Youth Advisor.

Coming this YEAR:  Keep an eye out in the newsletter and this site for information on what we'll be up to during this coming year.  Plan for youth gatherings once a month at the church, Bible Studies, retreats at Camp Eder, attending Southern PA District Youth events, Eastern Regional Youth Conference, Hilltop 2008, National Youth Conference 2010 fund raising events, Sunday school, lock-ins and so much more.  If you have any ideas on events that you think would be cool to do, please let any member of the Youth Steering Committee know by emailing them or talking to them in church on Sundays.  We are always looking for new ideas and things to do to help our surrounding community and show the love of Jesus to our friends and neighbors!
