OneEightyOne Student Ministries

Don’t forget to register for the intern lock-in before Friday! The lock-in is Friday night from 10:30 pm to Saturday morning at 7:00 am. The theme is a murder mystery and it will be up to each team of students to obtain the clues to figure out who, why, and what weapon caused the untimely demise of our beloved PD*!

There will be games, food, and some free time during the night. Don’t miss it and be sure to bring your friends too!

*PD was not actually harmed in the planning or…(ehem) EXECUTION…of this lock-in!

Attention ALL Junior AND Senior High students!

For one night, and one night only (at least until the next all-nighter), we will be gathering for food, fun and games!

Also, someone is going to die… (Not literally, of course. It’s just pretend.) Because our Annual Intern Lock-in is:

A MURDER MYSTERY!!

Join us on Friday June 8^th at 10:30pm to 7:00am Saturday morning here at the church for an entire night of time together with your youth ministry! Meet your summer interns, eat copious amount of food, and play games until your brain explodes!

Can your team be the first to figure out who did it?!? 

As a reminder, there is no IMPACT Night tonight, or the rest of the summer, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t opportunities for service, fellowship, and fun!

Our Next work day is Saturday, May 19^th, 8 am – 4 pm. We need all hands on deck as we close in on finishing up our youth center renovation. If you cannot come for the whole time, come for as long as you can! Students and parents are invited! Lunch will be served!

Indy Mission Team Training/Work Day on Saturday, June 2^nd from 9 am – 1:30 pm. We’ll be helping our children’s ministry by prepping for the Kids Day Out while training for the type of work we will be doing in Indianapolis. More details will be provided at our next training.

7-Up Party, June 2^nd 6 pm – 8:30 pm. Upcoming 7^th graders and their parents are invited to join us for a party in your honor! We’ll have dinner, games, and a ministry overview for our new members!

Graduation Sunday, June 3^rd. We will be taking some time to honor our graduating seniors during Sunday school and will be celebrating with both High School and College Graduates from our congregation during the 11 am service.

Intern Lock-In, June 8^th 10:30 pm – 9^th 8:00 am. Join us for food, games, and fellowship all night long. A great opportunity to get to know our summer interns and to connect with the ministry!

Youth Outing – Water Games, June 13^th. We will meet at the church to have a blast playing games and getting drenched!

Remember to check the OneEightyOne website regularly for more details and new events throughout the summer!

See you there!

Growth Group Night!

Come join us for the last IMPACT night of the school year as we finish up by spending time together with our Growth Groups for the evening! Here’s what we’ll be doing:

• The Jr. High guys will be going to Cici’s Pizza for a casual dinner and chill time. $10 will more than cover your dinner and drink. They are leaving the church at 7:00 pm and will return by 8:30 pm for pick up.
• The Jr. High girls will be going to Ashley T.’s apparent for food, fellowship, and games. Cost is $3 and you need to bring your favorite ice cream topping! They are leaving the church at 6:00 pm and will return by 8:30 pm for pick up.
• The Sr. High guys in David and John’s group will be meeting in their break out room for snacks and to play games. No money needed. They will start at 6:00 pm and end by 8:30 pm.
• The Sr. High guys in Adam and PD’s group will be working at the Ridgewood house then walking over to a restaurant for dinner. Bring money for dinner. They will begin the work project at 6:00 pm and will be back at the church by 8:30 pm.
• The Sr. High girls in Staci’s group will be meeting in the Garden by the glass walkway to work on a project for Mother’s day! No money is needed. The project will begin at 6:00 pm and end by 8:30 pm. Feel free to come early to hang out beforehand.
• The Sr. High girls in Grace and Jessica’s group, because of illness, will be hanging out at the church and will reschedule their previous plans for another day.

Can you smell it? Can you taste it!? Pasta? Meat? Spaghetti sauce? And dessert! Lots and lots of desserts! Desserts as far as the eye can see! And all of this to help further the Kingdom!

We serve an amazing God, and He is working! This year we are sending out nearly 60 adults and students from OneEightyOne student ministries to Washington DC and Indianapolis. Members of our church will be showing God’s love to those in need in practical ways like helping to clean, do yard work, and paint. They will be praying with strangers and sharing the gospel with them on the street. We are setting out to be used by God to change the lives of others, but we will also return changed!

And we need your help! This Sunday is our annual pasta dinner and dessert auction; one of our biggest fund raisers of the year. We will raise a significant portion of our funds during this event. So what can you do to help?

Well, first off, you can buy a ticket and come eat lunch on Sunday. You can invite others to come enjoy lunch; friends, family, even strangers! Invite that neighbor that you’ve been witnessing to and pay for their ticket! After lunch you can bid on one (or more, we won’t judge!) of the dozens of amazing, homemade desserts that are part of the auction! Eating carbs and dessert for Jesus? Does life get any better?!?

Second, we could use help setting up, preparing, and serving. On Saturday, the 28^th, we will be doing the bulk of our set up from 9am-11am. Tables, chairs, and decorations all need to go up along with dessert tables, serving lines, and drink stations. Come and serve, we could use “all hands on deck”!

Then on Sunday, we will be finishing set up at 10:45am so that we are ready to serve the masses at 12:30. We need hands to help finish set up, plating food during the meal, serving drinks, and clean up.

If you have already agreed to help with set up, serving on Sunday, or are making something for the auction, thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!!!! We couldn’t do it without you! If you haven’t, and you want to, well come on by on Saturday or Sunday morning to lend a hand (hopefully two)!

Finally, and most importantly, pray. Pray that God will move in the hearts of all those attending to be generous with their giving; Not for us, for God and His glory! Then pray that God would lead you how to you can best help and give.

Thank you!
