The middle school youth will be going back to Omaha Nebraska to help with the Open Door Mission. They will be serving at a Bible Day camp. At this camp our youth will be helping out with crafts, Bible time, and field trips. Also they will have an opportunity to help serve at the Open Door Mission doing some service projects. While we are there on Friday our 8</span></span>^{<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">th</span></span>}<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> graders will be taking part in making over 500 sack lunches and passing them out to the homeless and those in need. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Our Senior High youth will be have a different experience then what we have had in the past. We will be going to Camp Barnabas in Southeast Missouri. Camp Barnabas is camp for kids that have special needs. While we are there the children that we will be working with have terminal illness. Our youth that are over 16 will be paired up one on one with a camper. They will be their buddy and help them participate in every activity and helping them with all their needs. Our youth under 16 will be doing work projects around the camp and also helping the campers with activities. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <span lang="EN"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">I am very excited for both of these upcoming opportunities to serve. For the youth I am looking forward to see how God uses them, and teaches others about His love. </span></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">~Brett</span></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/761442660128466276-904439568640929138?l=andoverumcyouth.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andover UMC Youthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11840585517083649380noreply@blogger.com0
