The Youth Group will be going to Waco to help with the Under the Bridge Ministry, over the weekend
of June 4th through the 6th. On Friday June 4th, the Youth will have a lock down at TPC. Volunteers
will cook hamburgers and hot dogs for us Friday night, and a pancake
breakfast on Saturday Morning. Debra Hollifield and her youth
from Guymon, Oklahoma will join us, and drive down on the Gymon
Church bus to Waco. We will spend the night at the Presbyterian
Church there, and on Sunday will attend the Church Under the
Bridge, and help feed the homeless after the service. This is a great
way for the youth to honor Jesus, and serve the community. For
more information about the Church Under the Bridge, please visit

The Youth Group has begun a new bible study. It is called CSI Christ Study Investigation.
The study is being led by Lee Ann Bandy, our new Youth Sunday
School teacher. The study gets teens to investigate Christ and His teachings, and
prove that He exists. This study is based upon Lee Stroebel’s “Case for Christ”.
Lee Ann will be presenting this class at the Wednesday night Youth Group over
the summer. -
