Our first small group night of the year is this Sunday! We are looking forward to spending more time in small groups and having kids in homes to fellowship and enjoy getting to know each other more. Here is where your kids will be headed on Sunday. Don't come to New Garden Park!
Middle School Girls: The Cox Home - 4003 Hazel Ln., Greensboro, NC 27408
High School Girls: The Lewkowicz Home - 2011 Medhurst Dr., Greensboro, NC 27410
Middle & High School Guys: The Wise Home - 5811 Bison Dr., Oak Ridge, NC 27310
Help Needed
Below are two ways you can help serve in the next few weeks!
- Church of the Redeemer is hosting The Compassion Experience from Oct. 6-9. We need to have 2 adults and 8 youth willing to lead on Oct. 7 at Church of the Redeemer. We will have 2 shifts, where we need to have 1 adult and 4 youth (14 & older) at each shift. Register HERE so you can serve!
- Booyah at the Barn is quickly approaching and we need your help! Here is our sign up genius link!
SNL: 6-8pm at NGP
Each week, we're giving kids the chance to memorize a weekly scripture verse, and earning points for their beloved teams...Team Burger or Team Taco.
This week our verse is John 15:14-15:
“You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.” (NIV)

SNL FOOD $
It worked well last year to have folks pay for SNL food upfront, rather than bringing $5 each week. We'll continue to provide dinner each Sunday night this semester, mostly pizza, but we will do different food when we have small group nights at homes and we'll do a catered meal for the winning team. We also will do a pot-luck dinner for our Christmas party on Dec. 17th. In light of the meal costs, could you send $50/kid cash or check (payable to "Church of the Redeemer" with "youth budget" in the memo) with your child this Sunday night. That will help offset the costs for Sunday night meals this semester.
DRIVE/THE Q
Our Sunday morning discipleship environments started back this past Sunday, during the 10am community hour. We will meet every week in between the 8:30 and 11am service. While adults are having fellowship in the Greenhouse, middle and high schoolers will gather in The Grove for DRIVE and THE Q. Students will have time to grab a snack at 10am and we'll start promptly at 10:15am and end by 10:55am.
SERVING
Now that we have two services, there are lots of opportunities for youth to serve. Youth could attend the 8:30 service, come to DRIVE/THE Q at 10:15, and then volunteer in children's ministry during the 11am service. If your child is interested in volunteering in the Children's Ministry, there will be a quick interest meeting this Sunday in the Greenhouse immediately following the first service before DRIVE/THE Q starts. Find Cherie Weber after the service. There are also other areas to serve in addition to children's ministry. Let Drew or Melissa know if you want to be on a different servant team (AV, readers, welcome, worship, ushers, etc...)
