The Great Escape: An EPIC Adventure


9 middle school youth and 2 adults have returned from Cleveland, TN where we had an amazing time playing games, learning new songs, refreshing and deepening our relationship with God and growing closer together as a group. We learned about the importance of trusting God even when life doesn't make sense, being who we were created to be no matter what those around us are doing, and we were challenged by the statement "you may be the only Bible some people ever read."

Jessie Price won the girls chess tournament, Colby Shumate was on the 2nd place boys soccer team, and we all had fun in the church volleyball tournament. We also had a blast every day in recreation with water balloons, shaving cream and the 'mud pit.'

Check back soon for a video of our pictures from the week!

The Great Escape


We have 9 students from the Middle School group and 2 adults traveling 6 hours to Cleveland, TN for THE GREAT ESCAPE, June 15-20! We're ready for some good times, new friends, and a fresh relationship with God.
Those going on the trip: if you're available, come help tie-dye shirts on Friday at 3pm in the Fellowship Hall kitchen. Also, don't forget our "last-minute-questions/comments-and-other-stuff-to-get-us-excited" meeting this Sunday, June 14 at 11am in the Fellowship Hall (so don't forget to go to early worship!).
