Happy Monday Elevate Families,
I want to inform you all that Elevate will be talking part in the God’s Table Ministry at the Centenary United Methodist Church on March 22nd. We will be serving a meal to individuals in our community that need a hot meal.
We need some help to make this happen. We need two families to help cook enough food for 15-20 people. This could be as simple as spaghetti, we also need three families to bring desert for this event.
Please let me know that you will be bringing your student’s to this event that way we know that we will have enough volunteers for this event. This is an event that I will sign off on for volunteer hours for you students’ school.
We will be meeting at Centenary United Methodist Church at 5:30 PM to get things set up for the evening. Please be back at the Centenary United Methodist Church at 7:15 PM to pick your students up.

Elevate families, this next Sunday, March 10th is Elevate Sunday!!
We will be celebrating what God has done and continues to do in our youth ministry!! We will be highlighting Winter Retreat 2024 and all the different things that God did you on that trip!! Also, this Sunday, we will be asking the following questions: What does it mean to sabbath? What does it mean to rest with God?
Hey friends, don’t forget we have Elevate tomorrow night. Doors will be opening at 6:00 pm for Spaghetti Wednesday. We will be eating in the Johnson Center. This is an opportunity for us to eat a meal together before we worship. This is also a great opportunity for those of you who play sports and do after-school activities to eat before Elevate. Regular Elevate will be happening later in the evening.

Elevate families, I want to say that I am so excited for Elevate tonight and what God is doing here in the lives of our students!!
I just wanted to take some time and give you all a quick reminder that we are having an Elevate Parent meeting next Sunday at 11:00 AM in the Johnson Center. We will be going over the travel plan for Winter Retreat 2024 and the things that you, as parents, should know about the retreat.
In addition to that, I will also be highlighting several different events that we will be doing here in Elevate in the upcoming months. I also want to give you as parents, the opportunity to see and read the Youth Ministry Report that I submitted to LNC. Within that document, I have laid out where we have been in our teaching schedule and where we are looking to go.
Our goal here at Elevate is to continue to learn, grow, develop, and invest in the lives of our students to help them become Christ-like disciples. That way, they can go and be the hands and feet of Jesus in their world.
See you all on Sunday at 11:00 in the Johnson Center. Thank you,
P. Caleb Lynch
