11/22 Youth Ministries Newsletter

​Good Morning Parents and Teachers!
Youth Group- all youth are invited to help clean up after Simsbury Celebrates with us.  We will be leaving at the peace, heading out to the shops near subway in Simsbury (where Starbucks and Little City are located).  Parents can pick up their children around 1pm at Subway.
Sunday school- Video in the Chapel.  Will return at the Peace
Christmas Pageant- I have scripts for most of the kids, third grade and older, who signed up to be a part of the pageant.  We had a bunch of kids sign up and I am super excited for you to read through your scripts.  Keep in mind, there may be a few small changes in the final pageant.  Remember that K, 1, and 2 kids will be sheep and preschool and nursery kids will be angels.
Mission Trip 2018- Some of the interested participants met on Sunday the 19th to discuss Mission Trip options.  The options are: Houston or Wallingford.  Houston: bad news first- the trip has already been wait listed and it is going to be $1000 per person to go.  Good news: We would be helping with Disaster Recovery.  Wallingford: good news first- we would be helping to create an Emergency Response Plan for the City and its only $400 per person but it’s in Connecticut and that wasn’t as appealing to Sunday’s attendees.
We Are The Children Toy Drive- has begun!  There are six little trees on the table in the narthex; each one represents an age group: Infants, Toddlers, Preschool, 5-7, 8-10, and 11-13.  You can choose a boy or girl from each age group, shop for that child, and then bring the new, unwrapped toy back to Trinity before the Pageant.
 
**Don't forget:
Calendar sales will begin December3rd and go through the end of the year.  


See you Sunday!
