Hey everyone,
I hope that you have been enjoying time with friends and family this Christmas. It always seems like this time goes by so fast... hope that you get some good quality time in before school hits again!
New Year's Eve is coming up this Saturday - and so is our New Year's Eve event! We'll be having a blast with several other Maple Valley area youth groups at the Family Fun Center in Tukwila and Sky High in Bellevue, with food, games, and lots of good time together along the way. It goes from 5:00pm on Saturday to 12:15am on Sunday. Pick up and drop off is at Maple Valley Presbyterian Church. The cost is $49 - you can bring cash or a check made out to Cedarcreek Covenant Church. You also need to bring a current Life101 Release Form (filled out in the 2011-12 school year) and a Sky High liability release form, both of which can be found on the Downloads page. Ben, Janet, and Debbie will leading our group. Please let me know if you plan on being there!
In other big news, we are kicking off our IMMERSE Bible Study next week! This is an opportunity for us to dig deep into the word of God together. We'll be looking at roughly one book per month. Our first study will be led by Becca Worl on Friday, January 6th. It will be happening at her house from 4:30 to 5:30. We'll be serving tea and hot chocolate (woohoo!) and discussing the book of James. You can download a version of the book of James on the downloads page. Do you feel like God is calling you deeper? Do you want to take the next step in your life of faith? Do you have lots of questions or doubts? This is a place to work it out. Come join us! Let me know if you're interested.
And just to remind you, there will be no Life101 gathering this Sunday. I look forward to seeing you all at our next Life101 gathering on January 8th!
