We are requiring masks at all youth events going forward. Please encourage your child to wear their mask to continue to protect our community. We also ask that you be gracious and flexible during this time as we have to cancel or reschedule events due to coronavirus.
We are looking forward to our SNL Pumpkin Patch parties! Our Middle School party is this Sunday, October 18th, from 7 pm - 8:30 pm. Due to rain last weekend our High School Pumpkin Patch party has been rescheduled for Sunday, October 25th from 7 - 8:30 pm. We will have a pumpkin carving contest, music, games, cornhole, and more!
Registration for The Booyah Brrrr opens TODAY Thursday, October 15th, you can register here!!

The Booyah Brrrr is for students in 6th-12th grades on January 15th-18th, at Watermarks Camp in Charlottesville, Virginia.
For any youth who went through confirmation last Spring, there will be a special Order of Confirmation service on October 29th at 6:30 pm. Bishop Steve Breedlove will be present with us for the service in order to confirm and receive the confirmands as new members of our church. There will be limited seating so please register the students who will be getting confirmed as well as the family members planning to attend.
We are looking for youth to volunteer at the Craft Fair that Redeemer is hosting in conjunction with the Free Farmer's Market on October 31st between 10 am - 2 pm. Volunteers can check-in with Leah Wall at the Children's Ministry table upon arrival, and will be passing out treats to attendees.
We've been so grateful for all of our youth who have been coming out and serving at the farm stand. We are still looking to have 10-12 youth serve each week for the remainder of our farm stand, which will continue Saturday mornings 8 am -12:30 pm through November 20th.
