News
it’s official! we’ve had one full week of LHCyouth activities and it feels good to be back in the swing of things:) PBbk was awesome last week, it’s going to be amazing connecting with New Life Fellowship and their ministry…the thought of community together really connects with our students.
24:7 and iT, ALWAYS a blast. BIG games (with earth balls and foam swords!), Cafe, interactive messages… LOVE IT!!
this week, i wanted to draw your attention to 2 announcements:
1) Our monthly service project is this saturday! we’ll be heading to New Jersey Food Bank from 8:15am-12pm. it’s for students ages 12 and over… make sure to email Matt (matt @ LHCnj . net) if you are planning on coming b/c space is limited!
2) We’ll be having a Parents Meeting this Sunday (25th) @ 6:30-7:15 to talk about LHCyouth, the direction we are heading, the programs and events we are planning, and different ways for parents to plug into it. PLEASE mark it on your calendar & be there even if you’ve been part of our ministry for years ~ If you have any questions you’d like addressed, please email me in advance so i can make sure to hit on them:)

i can’t even begin to tell you how excited i am about LHCyouth really kicking off tonight. it’s going to be amazing…
we’ve got some unique things planned for this year and it all starts to night with PBbk @ 6pm. we head through the OT…starting with the creation account and ending in june with the minor prophets… can’t wait!
one of the bigger changes that affects LHCyouth was LHC’s change to 1 service @ 10am. here’s what it means for us:
1) an awesome chance to worship as a body together!
2) our traditional SS time will be put on hold at 9am…Pastor Phil will be holding a mini-service for all those helping out at the 10am service with LHCkids during that time in the cafe.
3) this is a GREAT chance to get plugged in with LHCkids serving on sunday am’s. there are lots of spots
also please remember our parents meeting on the 25th @ 6:30pm in the cafe!

I can’t believe it’s time for school already… i’m not ready for this and i’m not even gong back to school! (but kayla starts this week for the 1st time!)
I always had this odd feeling in my stomach when i started a new school year. i think it was a mixture of the excitement of the unknown & what the year was going to bring and realizing i wasn’t a huge fan of school…it meant summer was over… didn’t like that at all…
one thing i did always look forward to, YOUTH GROUP starting up again:) so for me…i can’t wait to get up and going with everyone again. we kick off the year with Mini-Golf this week at Monster Mini Golf @ 12pm. IT’S COMPLETELY FREE!!!! COME WITH FRIENDS:)
then we’re kicking off PBbk on the 14th and going through the Old Testament! we’ll be connecting with New Life Fellowship and pastor ryan will be co-teaching with me…super excited about that! make note of the time change, 6-8pm!
not to be outdone, sunday nights return on the 18th full steam. matt has great things planned for us this season and i can’t wait!
we’re praying for all of you as you have/will kick-off the new school year. be safe, smart, and continue to listen for what God has for you…it’s a NEW YEAR!

can you believe we are already in the middle of July?! i can’t…
here at LHCyouth we’ve been running full force b/t disc golf, soccer games, go-karting, work days, man night, and a host of other events! we’re hoping that in the midst of summer, you’d find great community here. the blessing is we see that happening:) and please be aware that we’re gonna keep up the pace (outside of next week and boston project week) as summer continues!
next week you’ll see we don’t really have anything on the calendar. the reason for that is b/c we are pushing for ALL of our students and leaders to be involved in our VBS program. this is one of the weeks we set aside for our kids and come together as a church to serve. we just LOVE IT! if you haven’t signed up yet to help, make sure to contact Pastor Jimmy. there are lots of different ways to plug in!

Hey Gang,
Believe it or not but summer is here! It seems to have taken it’s merry time getting here, with all the late storms and changes in temperature, but its here – at least its here for LHCYOUTH! This Wednesday marks the end of PBBK for the summer, and we’ve already had our BBQ, so as of Thursday morning we switch into our summer schedule. This will, as always, begin with our trip to DORNEY PARK!!
Dorney is always a great trip, and will no doubt surpass our expectations – it always does. However, since we aren’t renting a buss, and because of the potential number of students coming to this trip, we are in need of potential drivers; volunteers to be able to drive a bunch of crazy students to, or from, Dorney park. If you are able to drive, and are willing to offer your time to shuttle students, please email me (Matt@LHCNJ.Net) to let me know. The times for driving are from 8am-10am (to Dorney), and 6pm-8pm (to LHC).
For students, a few reminders always seem to be needed. First, bring sun screen, it aways seems to grow sunny out and without fail someone gets burned (i have fallen victim to this several times). Second, bring money for lunch and dinner, sadly because of how dorney is set up, we have to eat in the park and it always is a little pricey. Third, girls please don’t wear a Bikini if you have a choice; Tankini is okay, as is one piece, but if you only have Bikini please wear a colored shirt. And for the guys, please no Speedos!!!!! And remember, if you bring valuables, you’ll need to pay for a locker
Lets make this summer the best we’ve had!!!! Since our Calendar is so packed out, i’m sure we can get that job done! ;-P lets make this 2011 Bonanza truly Legen……..wait for it……….hope your not lactose intolerant…………because the next word is ‘dary!’ LEGENDARY!!!!!!
