I keep hearing that teenagers are looking for a place to talk about life, vent, share things, and just hang out. The Life of the American Teenager is created just for you.
You will be able to have some good eats, (muffins, donuts, mt. dew, energy drinks) be able to text in responses anonymously to questions about your life and talk about what is going on every Sunday morning during first service.
We will meet in the youth room at 8:45am for some food, texting, and chillling.
Due to the rain we have had over the last few weeks the corn maze will be too muddy for us to navigate this Saturday. Therefore, we will re-schedule our trip until Saturday, Oct 31st at the Trunk or Treat event. More details will follow once times are finalized.

Dear Middle School Parents & Students,
The details for the upcoming trip to Kansas City are ready to be released! We will be leaving Saturday, September 26th in morning and returning Sunday night at the same time youth group is done. Saturday we will spend all of the day playing games and riding rides at Worlds of Fun. We will then stay the night at the Courtyard by Marriott. Sunday morning we will go to the 10:30am service at IHOP (International House of Prayer). This will be a good chance for our students to get familiar with the church in which many of our other members are currently being trained at. Currently we have 8 leaders that have committed, and I would like to keep between a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio for the trip. Therefore, we are encouraging the students to invite friends to come along with us.
The cost of the trip is $75 plus two meals. Students will have to cover their own lunch on the trip down and back. Your $75 covers admission to Worlds of Fun, gas, 2 meals and the hotel room. Scholarships are available if needed. Registration & Fees for the trip are due at church by Friday, September 18th. Below is a copy of the tentative itinerary and attached are a couple of registration forms (one for student and one for friend). If you have any questions or concerns, please call Nate @ 366-7446 or email nate@churchatthegate.com.
