Group News: Jr.
Sr. youth Group outing for February
On
February 25th Sr. High and Jr. High Youth Group had a great
time at Laser Quest. Laser quest
is played in the dark. You see how many points you can achieve in 20
minutes of game time. I will say it again, what a great time we had.
Everyone had something fun to say after coming out of his or her game, it
was thrilling! Some of the youth and their parents really scored some high
points. Thanks to all that joined us. St. Peters Church in St. Clair
joined our group. It was great to have St. Peters be apart of the fun.
Thanks to all the parents that helped drive and a special thanks to Jan
Breuhan the youth minister for her help with the food and getting the
group started on time, God works in each and everyone of us and I am
blessed to have you by my side Jan. There was plenty to eat- pizza, tasty
brownies and cookies that were brought by Sandy Youngert and Sue Paul.
Thank you for helping out they really hit the spot!

at Hope Lutheran Church. Ten different churches took part in this year’s
event sixty-five youth in all. We played games and worked together in
tribes. Your tribe represented different parts of Africa, and your tribe
had to learn to work hungry and with disables as a youth would in their
village in Africa. Unable to see; maybe you couldn’t use your legs or
arms, or you had aids. Wow something to think about, right? Sandy Youngert
and Tamara Howes took five of St. Martin’s Youth; Gina Warwick, Allison
Aubry, Deidre Knowles a friend of Allison and Gina’s, Travis Youngert
and Andre’ Howes. There were 10 churches in all and we helped to raise
over $1,800.00. We all made it to the end.
