COVENANT YOUTH

"By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive

as his inheritance, obeyed and went,

even though he did not know where he was going."

(Hebrews 11:8)

"The Rock" is our name for Covenant's Youth Ministries.  It's a meeting time for fun, fellowship, and sound worship and teaching. Our normal meeting time for The Rock is Sunday evenings, 6:00-7:30. We will have small group bible studies going on throughout the school year. Our desire at Covenant, and in particular with The Rock, is to build each youth up in the faith, so that they will respond appropriately to God's word. Youth in grades 6-12 are welcome to join us.

REGULAR ACTIVITIES

YOUTH SUNDAY SCHOOL
CRAZY LOVE.  The answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of dos and don'ts—it's falling in love with God. God calls each of us to a passionate love relationship with Himself.

This summer the youth will be looking at a DVD series based on the book Crazy Love.  “It’s crazy, if you think about it.  The God of the universe—the Creator of nitrogen and pins, needles, galaxies and E-minor—loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love.  And what is our typical response?  We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss.”  The book is not a requirement for this class to read but it would add to the class.  Come and join us as we seek the Lord together in hopes of falling in love with Jesus in a “crazy” way.

YOUTH MOVIE NIGHT

Live Free Presents  WILD AMERICA  

Friday, July 30, 7pm

Based on the true saga of the Stouffer brothers, this movie is an unusual combination of comedy film and nature documentary. In the 1960s in rural Arkansas, Marty Stouffer (Jamey Sheridan) grooms his three sons to take over the family auto parts business. But the sons are more interested in animals, photography, racing cars and trucks, and impressing girls. Marty, Jr. (Scott Bairstow) and Mark (Devon Sawa) fight frequently with their stern father over his work demands and their yen for adventure. Finally, their mother Agnes (Frances Fisher) intercedes, and the patriarch agrees to let the two boys take a cross-country trip to film a nature documentary. The youngest son, Marshall (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), stows away in his brothers' van and joins them on their travels. They head west, encountering a variety of animals and surviving many dangerous scrapes. The brothers' wacky exploits contribute to a new kind of participatory nature cinematography.

Rated:  PG
