We are having a water day at Adventure Landing- Shipwreck Island water park. Mark your calendars for Saturday, September 7, from 10am-2:30pm. Bring a towel, sunscreen, dry clothes, water shoes and about $15-20 cash/debit card for lunch! Meet at the park at 1944 Beach Blvd, Jacksonville Beach at 10am to gather with your Youth Life(7-12th grade) friends for a day of fun in the sun! Thank you to our chaperones, Michelle and Heather for leading this event. You will stay in groups of 4 or more and enjoy the day together. Parent pickup is at 2:30pm. If you cannot get to the park, but can get to church, please let me know and we will arrange a ride. We will need a health form for this event, so please complete one for your youth. They can be found outside my office or in the link in this email. 

Confirmation classes will begin September 8th. You’ll meet at 9:45 in the Youth Life room in the Shepherd Center. Class will be done in time for you to attend the 10:30 service. 

Pumpkins arrive early this year! We are scheduled to unload pumpkins Saturday, October 5th. More details to follow but mark this date on your calendar. We need all hands on deck to unload the pumpkins. Even if you cannot lift a pumpkin, you can help bring water to the unloaders and help in many other ways. The pumpkin patch will run every day through October 31st. Please plan on volunteering to work a shift. This will count towards community service hours and you could earn credit toward future youth events.
