A New Week!

Thanks to everyone who came out Sunday evening for food, fellowship, and the discussion of our future. I hope everyone got as much as I did out of watching Pay it Forward. The theme of the movie I hope will serve us well as we embark on a mission project close to home. The movie calls for three calculated acts of kindness, and it is my sincere hope that we are able to carry out three calculated big acts of kindness before the New Year.

As discussed, come to the church at 3pm Sunday afternoon in work clothes prepared to pay it forward for a member of this church in need.

I also want to extend my thanks to the Rush family who provided great subs for dinner Sunday night! The parents have a done an excellent job of providing great meals for UMYF thus far, and I know their amazing support will continue.

This Wednesday evening at 5pm in the library we will have the first of our new Bible Study sessions. We will go from 5pm to 5:45pm, and I then encourage you to join us for dinner here at the church. Wednesday after Wednesday, Mr. Harvey continues to provide delicious food, while many member of UMYF come out and enjoy a night together. Dinner will be taken care of, we just ask that you come out and fellowship with us. This Bible Study will look at the Fruits of the Spirit, as found in Galatians. The title of this Bible Study is "What Fruits Are in You?" So please come and check out this new series!

The new blog is now up and linked to the Trinity website. Go to TUMC.com and click on UMYF Blog on the left hand side. I will be updating the blog weekly, and I think it will be a great way for you to give me feedback on what you think is working and what you would like to have more of as a UMYF.

As we discussed Sunday evening, planning is underway for a Ski Trip in January and the Statewide UMYF Retreat in February. Please be mindful of these events happening in the future, and continue to give me feedback with your thoughts and ideas!

We had a good discussion during Sunday School, and I would love to hear more about what you think! Come out on Sunday morning and voice your opinion on a plethora of issues and hear what others have to say as well! I think we may be having donuts and beverages this Sunday! I hope you all have an amazing week, and maybe I will catch a few of you during my trips to the schools for lunch. Enjoy the weather!

Best,
Chuck
