Belonging. Believing. Becoming.

A NOTE FROM BOBBY PATTON, DIRECTOR OF YOUTH MINISTRY

Hello Christ Church Family!

I hope that everyone enjoyed their Easter holiday and Spring Break. I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things - beginning right away with some meaningful events that I hope the entire youth group can show up for to support their fellow students!

The first is our Senior Blessing Sunday this weekend. This is a chance to honor both the students who have helped shape the current youth group, as well as their parents who have contributed so much over the years to our youth program. To our Seniors, watch for a few communications this week to keep you informed of what to expect this weekend. We also have Confirmation finishing up this weekend, with Confirmation Sunday next week on April 21. The Confirmands will affirm their baptismal vows and become full members of our church. Both Sundays are milestones in the faith journey for our youth and I think the more students present at these Sundays, the better.

Watch for next week's Youth News when the entire summer schedule will be available. Some things to look forward to over summer break include VBS, some fun activities like Color Wars and even a trip to Kings Island!

I am super excited for the upcoming events in the lives of our students. For any questions, comments or just a chance to hangout, feel free to connect with me.

See you Sunday! 

Bobby
