Ignite Youth
Ignite had a great time this summer at a bonfire hosted by Charlie and Becca Hopman and a
lake day hosted by Gary and Fern Roberg. As we say goodbye to summer and look forward to
fall, there will be some changes in the youth room on Wednesday nights. We want to thank
Charlie and Becca Hopman for their years of service and dedication to the youth. The
enthusiasm they brought to the group was contagious. This fall we are welcoming Connie Hess
and Stacy Stoneburner to the leadership team!
Our youth are challenged with big questions of the day. At Ignite, it’s our desire to create an
atmosphere for the youth to ask the big questions about faith and life. This fall we will be
studying the Bible as well as a book by Rebecca McLaughlin entitled “10 Questions Every Teen
Should Ask (and Answer) about Christianity”. We would encourage parents to get the book and
further the discussions with your teen.
Wednesday nights will include game nights (the first Wednesday of the month), Bible study,
large and small group discussion along with guest speakers. There are several fun social
gatherings planned including a bonfire at Paul and Connie Hess’ home on September 16th.
Fall Fling at Camp Shamineau October 21-23. The cost for Fall Fling is $75 payable to church.
Registration forms are available in the youth room. Please hand in payment and forms to a
youth leader by October 5th. Check it out HERE.
Another highlight of the fall is packing shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. If your family
has items they would like to donate; they can be left in the youth room. Please see the website
for ideas https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/. Donations
for shipping the shoeboxes are also greatly appreciated. We plan to pack the boxes November
2nd and 9th.
