Youth News
Sept. 11, 2011 Bulletin:
The UMYF did a
mailing fundraiser. Letters were sent to family and friends of each
UMYF member asking for donations to help support the activities that the UMYF
does during the year. This will be in place of the usual sales fundraiser that
is done in the fall. If you did not receive a letter in the mail, you can still
support the church youth activities. Donations of any size are
always
welcome. Checks can be written to Early UMYF and can be given to Jodi, Kristi,
Dennis or Robin. Thank you!"
They are making plans to continue mission work with JOPPA, a
non-profit organization reaching unsheltered people in unique ways. Operating
entirely on private donations from individuals, families, churches and other
organizations, JOPPA serves hundreds of homeless people. They create
awareness and educate people and organizations about the causes of homelessness
and about issues affecting our local homeless community. The UMYF would like to
continue participating in this project on a quarterly basis. They invite anyone who is interested to come
along and share this experience with them. Please contact one of the UMYF
leaders if you are interested: Dennis & Robin Wissink, and Jodi &
Kristi Bihrer.
Meeting Dates
The
group is open to all denominations and they usually meet at least every other
Wednesday during the school year. The group really has a lot of fun and the
leaders do a great job with the kids.
