Just Released Parent Information!
Thanks so much for your support as parents! We love your kids and we want to continue to serve the family as you build faith into your kids. I wanted to take advantage of letting you know what is newly available to you to give you insights and understanding about the world of Junior High ministry.
Last Saturday was the first Bridges 2008 youthworker training event for Portland area youthworkers, both professional, volunteer and student youthworkers in training. We had over 300 plus come and participate in general sessions and breakout seminars and it was a real highlight. Mike Higgs, a veteran youth pastor locally, was our speaker and he gave a timely message on the need for youthworkers today. Take time to listen to it by going to www.678live.com and clicking on our podcast link. Download it to your mp3 player, hear the challenge and I believe you won’t regret it!
Our Parent Visit Night at Fusion on October 26th was a great success. For those who couldn’t make it this time, you can find the information content is also on the podcast link referred to above. Check it out, you will find it very helpful.
For those parents who want to keep up with the teaching on Sunday mornings at Elevation, download individual messages from the Chasing Daylight series at the podcast link as well.
Great information, great challenges, and tools to help you on the journey! Let us know what you think.
Pastor Mark

Mark, thank you SO much to you and your staff for the absolute FABULOUS ministry year this has been so far. There is no doubt that the Holy Spirit is leading you and your team to do what is necessary to reach youth and help them grow into true disciples of Christ. I am also extremely appreciative for the many different ways you guys are communicating information to the parents this year. I really feel like I have a good handle on what’s happening in the ministry and am able to effectively “bring it home”. I love the blog as well as the prayer requests… Thank you for being bold enough to try new things and humble enough to hold it with open hands…
