RYM Weekly Update 10.25.17


SNL COSTUME PARTY
This coming Sunday night, 6-8pm at NGP. Prizes awarded for best costumes!

Last week at SNL we had an amazing time playing ManHunt and then hearing about how we are redeemed by God. Graham spoke to us about how God can use things even as difficult as tragedy to bring redemption to our lives. He shared this video where Louie Giglio reads an email written by Graham's mother after his dad passed away. You can watch the clip from 40:00-43:00. Our memory verse for the week is, "Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed his people." Luke 1:68

Baptism

If your child would like to be baptized on Sunday, Nov. 26th, there is a required Baptism class on the preceding Saturday, Nov. 18th from 10-11:30am. Sign up here

Servant Team Opportunities

We would love to have more youth serving in our worship services! If your child is interested in a particular area, there would be training offered for any of the positions. Here are a few jobs that we have available: 

For those comfortable in front of people:


  • Welcome Team (welcomes everyone into church; makes visitors feel welcomed)
  • Scripture Reader (reads the Old and New Testament scriptures from the pulpit)
  • Prayers of the People (leads Prayers of the People)
  • Chalice bearer (high school only; would serve the wine during Communion)
For those who prefer behind-the-scenes ministry:

  • Presentation - (sitting in the back and running the media software for songs, prayers, etc.)
  • Sound - (make it possible for every moment of the worship to be heard)
Contact Melissa if you are interested!
