BIG NEWS

BIG NEWS: 

  1. We have been invited to start Young Life club and campaigners on campus at Mt. Edgecumbe High School!  Sitka has been on Covid high alert since July and so the MEHS administration has invited Young Life on to campus in order to provide a positive activity in which kids could be involved.
  2. We had our first Sitka Youth Combined meeting with youth leaders and kids from churches around town joined together with YL leaders and kids in order to dive deeper into faith together. (More details will follow)
  3. Our Online Giving campaign will take place November 19-24. If you are on our regular email list, you will receive daily emails.  If you know someone who would enjoy the updates or want to receive a text link update on your phone during this campaign- use the following link:  Sign up   
    Pumpkin carving night with kids and leaders

The Ball is rolling!

                                        
The ball is off and rolling here with Sitka Young Life! Last week we met with kids to carve pumpkins, laugh and play games! We also met with a team of youth leaders from churches around town! The goal of meeting with Young Leaders was to help strengthen and encourage the youth programs and empower ministries and grow relationships with young people in our local churches. 

 And this is just the beginning. SYL will continue to host a monthly youth ministry leader training! SYL will host a monthly all-Sitka youth rally night where Young Life leaders and church youth leaders come together with the young people of Sitka. We will be using the curriculum from Alpha to dive deeper into conversations about faith and how Christ makes a difference in each of our daily lives.   Thanks for your involvement! Here is a picture from Saturday's youth ministries training:

Things to Celebrate: 
  • Meeting with kids for our campaigner Bible studies.  In the last week of school, between 4 different campaigner groups, we had 33 kids meet with 9 different leaders to enjoy a time of food, community, and to dive into God's word.
  • Gatherings with young people are becoming more frequent
  • This summer we are planning on having many ways to connect with young people in Sitka- including hiking, campfires, topic conversations, games, and a local camping trip.
Thanks for your prayers and support.
