Centenary Youth Ministries

 

It seems as if Fall has arrived and is in full swing!  Teachers are piling on the homework, projects are being assigned, practices are demanding and games are exciting.  We all have less and less time to do the things we really want to do.  Summer is gone and now the real work has begun.  Almost each time I log on to Facebook or MySpace I see updates saying how tired and overwhelmed we all are.  I had coffee with a friend just the other day and he asked me, "How do you stay positive and upbeat?"  My gut reaction was to laugh out loud (because I don't always feel positive and upbeat!), but then I thought about that question really hard.  I think the thing that keeps me grounded is taking time each day to remember that I am not alone.  Really, there is not one moment in any given day that we are completely and utterly alone.  We may feel like it, we may wonder how we are going to survive or get through all we have to get through.  But the truth of the matter is that we don't go it alone (see for yourself in Psalm 139).

We have a lot going on here at Centenary in our Youth Ministries.  The purpose for all these opportunities is to remind you of God's presence in your life.  We hope you will join us for Sunday school, worship, Bible Study, or Youth group each week so that you can take a deep breath, grow in your relationship with Christ, and be encouraged.

 

Peace & Grace,

Tammy Clark

Director, Ministries to Youth & their Families

Hoops 4 Him Basketball Teams!

The last couple of years we have had a High School Boys team participate in the Hoops 4 Him league.  Good competition and fellowship.  We lost more than we won, but it's been fun.  :)  Play is on Saturdays. Some top players play school, Y and church league ball.  Others just play because it is fun!

The sign up is due in early November and there are four divisions:
 
Jr Coed (6th graders or younger)
Girls (all ages)
Intermediate Boys (9th grade or younger)
Sr High School Boys 
 

The makings of a Sr High School Boys team is already underway and we would love to add more teams!  If you are interested, we will find a place for you...contact Tammy for more information!
