IN THE WORD THIS WEEK:
- Lesson 4: the Great Why of God (Psalm 67:71).
- Our main points were:
- We seek God’s blessing in order to make Him known among the nations (Psalm 67:1-2).
- We seek God’s blessing in order to make Him known among the nations (Psalm 67:1-2).
- As people worship and fear God, we experience the blessing of God (Psalm 67:6-7).
- Our memory verse is Psalm 67:7.
Wednesday Youth Group: We’re currently in the mini-series: “Bulls Eye – A Narrowed Focus on Christ”. We will zero in on how we can make Christ the central focus of our lives.
Lesson 4 of 4 – “Known By Our Fruit” We learned that Jesus will evaluate the evidence of spiritual fruit in our lives and will do whatever it takes to cause us to produce fruit.
Memory Verse: John 15:5
Follow-Up Discussion: (use these to talk with your teen about what they’re learning)

UPCOMING EVENTS:
Cans for Good – October 31: Instead of collecting Halloween candy, we’re collecting nonperishable food items for local food pantries and our community Thanksgiving dinner. It’s simple: pass out flyers (available in the youth center) to your neighbors, letting them know about this fantastic opportunity to help the needy. Then on October 31, simply go back through your neighborhood and collect as many nonperishable food items as you can. Finally, bring them back to the youth center from 8-10 pm. Prizes will be awarded to the best collectors!
SLAM Team Retreat – November 1-2: Our Student Leadership and Ministry Team will get away to Stony Glen on November 1–2. We will spend time bonding, team building, studying Scripture, and making memories. The cost for this retreat is $35. Sign up at www.oneeightyone.org.
