CHRISTEENS!

Hello again, RAVERS.  Here is the info for Christeens!


WHEN:  We'll be meeting at 5:00 on Friday, Feb 25 and returning on Sunday, Feb 27 around NOON.

WHERE:  Christeens is held at Westside Church of Christ in Russellville, AR.  HERE is their website.  We will be staying in the home of Jamie Sorrels.

WHAT DO THEY BRING:  They just need their regular clothing for Friday night through Sunday.  Dressy clothes will not be necessary.  We will be eating 3 meals on our own, one of which will probably be a little nicer than fast food, so I would recommend $25-$30 for food.  Everything else is provided.  AND EACH PERSON NEEDS TO BRING THEIR BIBLE.
***THEY ALSO NEED TO BRING ALL TOILETRIES, INCLUDING TOWELS, etc.***

WHO:

• Kevin Bradley
• Lindsey Parker
• Ashley Kinne
• Marisa Pless
• Morgan Hughes
• Leslie Embry
• Elizabeth Kinne
• Dylan Toon
• Sean Wilson
• Grant Haskins
• Chandler Passmore
• Stephen Holroyd
• Noah Franklin
• Josh Poulos

From everything I've heard, this is a great trip!  I can't wait to see everybody there!

OWLS Banquet Dinner

Welcome back to normal weather everybody!  I assure you I did not bring this snow with me when I came...I blame the Kilmers.

Anyway, I just wanted to remind everyone of the OWLS' Banquet Wednesday night.  It is our PRIVILEGE to dress up and serve the dinner that night.  A few things to remember:
Dinner officially begins at 5:30, so WE NEED TO BE THERE AT 5:15 at the latest.
Teens need to DRESS UP.  Let's show a lot of respect in how we present ourselves.
We will have RAVE Youth Worship immediately after this at our regular time of 6:30.

***ALSO, we have traditionally set up and decorated for this in lieu of TNBS.  This time, we'll do both.  On Tuesday night, we'll meet at church at 6:00 to decorate, and then have bible study after that.***

This is a GREAT way to bridge the typical generation gap, and connect with a beautiful, wise group of wonderful people!  Please encourage your teens to come to this, whether they usually come to TNBS or not.  We need all hands on deck!
