    The Youth Ministry at Morningside

    Greetings from the Rock!

    A WORD FROM YOUR YOUTH PASTOR!! For those of you who could not attend the Youth Rally on January 12th, my name is James Holbrook. Morningside Baptist Church has brought me on board as your Youth Pastor. I'm looking forward to seeing what God is going to do in the next three months.

    In January we began a comprehensive Bible study. There is a lot to learn and a lot to memorize. As an incentive, we want to offer some significant prizes for those who excel in this study in the form of gift certificates from The Ark and other Christian sources. We are really pumped about this study. It may be the most useful Bible study you have ever done and it will be fun too! Our goal is to:

    *
    Have a solid grasp of the entire Bible
    *
    Understand how God's Word applies to you
    *
    Have a knowledge of how God uses His Word to guide you in righteous living
    *
    Understand the importance of trusting God and how to do it.
     

    Rules for winning a prize: You must qualify to win. To qualify, you must be present and on time for 8 of the 12 classes from now through March 25th. Special arrangements will be made for those who are restricted by family issues. To earn a prize, you must complete all of the following:

    *
    Recite or write the books of the Bible in order with no more than 5 errors -
    *
    Recite or write the 12 periods of Biblical history in order without error
    *
    Recite or write in order the "Understanding the Bible" (without scriptures) in order at the level or 80% (.08% will be deducted for each error of order or omission) -
    *
    Recite or write the 6 types of biblical literature without error.
     

    You may be tested on each of these whenever you are ready and you may retake each test to raise your score as often as you'd like.

     

    Together in Christ,
    James Holbrook

    Wednesdays are fun evenings of games, singing and a short devotional time. We gather at the youth house from 6:00-7:30pm. Come and bring a friend.

    Some months an overnight lock-in is planned for on a Friday night. We will play games, watch movies, have some devotional time and fellowship time where we can all get to know each other a little better. We would welcome parents and other adults to participate by coming for a designated time to chaperone, lead a game or Bible devotion or just hang out with the youth for a time. If you are interested, let Carla, Steve, Jeanne, Cookie or Fred know.

    The Youth have fund raisers for Summer camp and other Activities. Some of the past fund raisers have been Spaghetti dinners after Sunday services, Car washes, Yard sales, and Selling calendars.

    Some of our youth participate in providing music for our worship services.

    See You at the Flag Pole, and Jesus Jam are some of the local activities our Youth participate in.

    Our Youth also do community service projects as part of their missionary ministry. They spent a lot of time together over spring break.
