Welcome back to the St John's EYC Blog!
THIS Sunday (October 28th), we will have a special Halloween-themed EYC from 4:30-6 p.m. in
Discovery House (918 Orleans)! Please dress up in a
church-appropriate outfit (nothing too gory or provocative), and there may be a
costume contest as well! We will still have dinner—join us for games, candy,
and fun!
On Sunday, November
4th (next week!), we're going Paintballing--at
Blitzkrieg Paintball (website here)!
Our Paintball Day will be from 1:30-5:30 p.m., and the cost is $30 per person.
Invite your friends!
Parents, we will need some volunteer drivers for this
event--and you can Paintball with us for free!
Thanks to everyone who volunteered at Sunday's Pumpkin Painting Party! Our first pictures include some fun with toilet paper!
Looking
forward--St John’s has 2 dates reserved this year to volunteer with Metro Ministries Holiday Tents!
Our first date is Saturday,
November 10th from 9 a.m.-Noon (with 8 spots still available), and
the second date is Saturday,
November 17th from 3:30-6:15 p.m. (with 18 spots available). Last
year, our spots filled up quickly! Please only sign up for one date to start
with, so that we can give as many people as possible the chance to serve. Click here to sign up!
Our EYC Summer
Mission Trip to Blue Ridge Mountains, NC (Taylorsville) will be June 8-15,
2019--and the cost is $600 (with scholarships available). We currently have 11
spots still open for the trip, and it will count for 35 service
hours! Please contact Youth Minister Ayana Grady (agrady@stjohnstampa.org) to sign up—a
$100 deposit will secure your spot!

to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin."

Our final pics show some Pumpkin creativity! Remember that God loves you, and so do I :)!
