Fantastic Kick-Off!

We had a great kickoff night. We got to meet the new rising freshmen and a few new faces and got introduced to the theme for the year, "Thy Kingdom Come". Laura Jones led us as we first went outside to play a beach ball game. Each person got tossed the beach ball and had to answer one of the crazy questions written on the ball. After we learned a few wacky new facts about folks we went inside and used crayons, markers, and lots of old magazines to create on big mural paper what we thought the Kingdom of God looked like. After creating our first impression we talked about what we thought the Kingdom of God was like and what "Thy Kingdom Come" meant. We then returned to fresh mural paper and again did our best artistic impression of what we thought the Kingdom of God looked like. You can see some of our creations hanging in the youth room. This year looks to be fantastic fun!
