Adopt-a-Youth Sunday

Summer is here and I need your help to provide some summer activities for the youth. Maybe you've always wanted to help with youth but you don't have time to dedicate an entire school year, maybe you think it would be fun to hang out with youth for just a day, or maybe you're a parent of teens. Whatever the case may be I am interested in anyone willing to help plan, host, or show up for a youth Sunday event. I am looking for help on June 28, August 2, and August 16. Some examples of what to do: provide food for a cook out, come play Frisbee with us, open your home to watch a movie, take youth out on the lake for a tubing adventure. The possibilities are endless. If interested, contact Jessica Reighard at 723-0452 or email jreighard@chapelbythelake.org.
