[TeenMinistry] SoulLift Reminder

As of 3:30 PM Friday – we have 2 seats for SoulLift on Sunday.  If you are interested – e-mail me at mike.brown@lafayettechurch.org  - do not call – I may not get the message.

 

If you are going, here are some reminders:

 

SUNDAY

  • Be at the building by 12:45 on Sunday after lunch (hint – don’t go to a sit-down place for lunch) – it is imperative that we leave no later than 1 PM or we will miss the beginning.  If you’re not there when the group leaves at 1 PM, you will need to find another ride.
  • Bring dinner money (fast food) if you didn’t pre-buy a t-shirt and want one, you can do that too.  There will also be vendors there.
  • We should be back to the building by 10 PM
  • I need 3 or 4 High School volunteers to stay late with me (and other youth ministers) to help clean up.
  • While we want you to have a blast, don’t forget that you are there to let God work on your heart…you will be reminded that he created a “Masterpiece” in you to use for His Glory!
  • Word has it that Lafayette Teen Ministry may have won a contest category (possibly the on with the Nintendo Wii as the prize!!!) – this is just a rumor so stay tuned!

 

 

MONDAY

Don’t forget – 6 Flags is on your own…I’ll be around.  You can buy tickets for $25 either at the Youth Rally on Sunday or look for me at the main gate Monday morning

 

TUESDAY

We have a good group committed to go to the service project on Tuesday.  Be at the building by 9 AM – we should return by 4 PM – wear your work clothes!

IF YOU’RE GOING ON TUESDAY WE NEED THE ATTACHED FORM FILLED OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
