Youth Announcements and June Calendar

Hey everyone,

Click here for our June youth calendar of events.  I am still working on a few of the dates for July and will have that one out shortly.  But be sure to look it over though because our activities and schedules will be slightly different.  We have some great things planned for the summer!       

Just a reminder we will NOT have any youth group meetings this week or next week due to exams and the Memorial Day holiday. 

Hope everyone has a great last week of school and good luck on exams!

Peace,

Lauren
