4HG Youth November 25th

Hey you Guys and Gals,

Hope you’re doing well!

In an effort to communicate better and more efficient after some complications in the past, you will start seeing two Youth Emails sent to you each week, that way you have an idea of what’s coming that week, and you’re reminded later in the week in case your life got busy (which happens to all of us).

For this week, I’m excited to announce and In-House event with Games, Snack, Music, and Jesus! Hope you can all make it and be excited to spend the Friday night together with your friends and leaders.

We have some exciting events coming in the next few weeks, including a Small-group night, where the small groups split up and meet at different places. If you as a parent would be willing to host one of those, please send me a message so we can plan what that night will look like together.

Here are some dates that will be useful to you for the foreseeable future:

December 2nd – Small Group Night
December 9th- Youth Packing Hampers for the Food Bank
December 16th – Youth Christmas Party (Winter Olympics)
January 6th – Youth Skate Night
January – Junior Youth Retreat Day (more information to come)

We will take a break over Christmas so there will not be Youth after the 16th of December to the 6th of January when we return, other than that Youth happens every Friday at 6:45pm at the Church, unless otherwise posted.

A few Heads up for the parents!
1. If you have not filled out a registration for your Child to attend youth, please do so! (You can find the form here[https://whyteridgebaptist.breezechms.com/form/beb0134267667995]) If you do not know if you have already filled one out for each child, you should have gotten a confirmation email.

2. Next week is our FIRST Small Group Night, where our small groups are splitting off and spending the evening in their small groups at someone’s house. If you would be willing to host one of those groups at your house, please contact me over this weekend so we can make plans to make that happen!

3. If you’re interested in helping Erika Cooper with the weekly snack by either baking or providing snack please contact her at erikacooper0101@gmail.com

Important: 4HG Youth Kickoff Details! (September 9th)

Hey All!!!

I can’t believe we’re coming back! I’m so excited to see you all again after this long summer!

Tomorrow (Friday Sept. 9th) is our Youth Kickoff Event!

We will be Meeting at 630pm at the Corn Maze (https://www.cornmaze.ca/pages/find-us) so your parents can drop you off there and pick you up at 8:45pm! We’re going to have a blast cruising through the maze, checking out the animals and enjoying some ‘smores and Hot chocolate!

Cost is $13 per person (I don’t want anyone not coming because of money so please come and let me know), every person will pay for themselves to limit the chaos of trying to organize 40 people on the spot.

There are two things I will need for each person! (Mandatory)

1. To come to youth, I will need a filled out registration from each person attending. You can find that registration HERE: (https://whyteridgebaptist.breezechms.com/form/beb0134267667995)

2. To come to the Corn Maze, you’ll have to fill out a waiver you can find HERE: (https://whyteridgebaptist.breezechms.com/form/beb013427866592)

If you do not have both filled out, I won’t be able to have you with us because of legal reasons. So please make sure you have them covered.

Tell your friends to come, make sure your friends know to fill out the forms (they can fill them out online even in the parking-lot of the maze, but it has to be done before we go in)!

Hope to see you all there!!!!

4HG Fall Update!

(Note that there in no youth tonight.  Have a wonderful long week end!)

REGISTRATION FORM (PLEASE FILL OUT!): https://whyteridgebaptist.breezechms.com/form/beb0134267667995

For the fall, we are jumping into Matthew with the Church! There is an option for you to get a copy of the ESV Illumination Bible which acts as a Bible and Journal at the same time! (You can talk to Doug or Myself for this).

We are really looking forward to changing up the plan from last year in aspects that involve Serving as well as building community among the small groups with events like Small-group nights at people’s houses from our church, and options for snow removal for people in our church who can’t do things for themselves.

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns as always please contact me and we can always have that conversation.  And, don’t forget to join us on Instagram! @4hgyouth!

4HG – May 20 (No Youth)

Hey All!

I know that this headline is super disappointing. No youth! Tragedy. It’s for good reason though!
This coming Friday, our registered Senior High Youth (please contact me if you have a question regarding this) are heading to Camp Nutimik for the weekend. Information will be below.
Youth will resume on May 27th as normal. Hope to see you then!

Youth Retreat Information you’ll need to know:

Bus arrives at WRBC at 5:15pm on Friday (May 20th) to pick us up leaving for Camp Nutimik, EAT BEFORE YOU GET THERE. We won’t have supper at Camp when we get there that night.

Bus will return to WRBC at 3:30pm on Sunday, for you to be picked up by your Parents. We will make sure Parents get a phone call from their child once we are within 30 minutes of arriving back at the church.

There will be an update email once we get to camp for you parents to feel safe in knowing that we will have arrived, and an update once we leave camp as well.

If you have any more questions, comments, concerns, please contact me today or tomorrow and I will do my best to help with those.
