Shine!

How can we shine God's light to the people in our lives Smiley? This Sunday at EYC, we will be discussing how we can show God's love to others in a meaningful way. EYC is 5-7 p.m. for 7th-8th graders, and 6-8 p.m. for 9th-12th graders. Meet at the Youth Center, and don't forget $4 for dinner!

Our pictures for this week are from last weekend's Diocesan Ski Trip:





The first St Mark's Follies Planning Meeting is tomorrow night (Thursday), from 7-8 p.m. in the church library. Participation is mandatory if you are going on the Mission Trip!

St Mark's Annual Meeting Smiley is coming up on Sunday, January 29th, and St Mark's EYC has volunteered to help with refreshments and clean up as part of our January service project. We need 12 volunteers (6 at 9:45 a.m., and 6 at 11:00 a.m.), so please let me know if you're available!

Are you ready for some football Smiley? The annual EYC Super Bowl Party is coming up on Sunday, February 5th! The party will be from 5:30 p.m. through halftime. If your last name is A-L, bring a drink to the party. If your last name is M-Z, please bring chips or a dessert.

The second group of pictures show the chilly temperatures (and some fun with makeup)!





Random Holiday Smiley: Thursday (1/19) is Tin Can Day!

Do you want to change the world Smiley? St Mark's EYC is doing the 30 Hour Famine next month (February 24-25)! By raising money, and then fasting for 30 hours, you can change the lives of children around the world. Check out this video:



During the weekend, we will volunteer at the Ortega River Run, play lots of games, watch movies, and (of course) have a whole lot of fun! Contact me this week to get your fundraising packet, and get more info on the Famine by clicking here. Overcome Hunger!


Pray for Happening 122 at Camp Weed this weekend!

Quote of the Week Smiley: “It seems that all my bridges have been burned, but you say 'That's exactly how this grace thing works'. It's not the long walk home that will change this heart, but the welcome I receive with every start.” –Mumford and Sons

The final photos show our group having fun in the snow! Remember that God loves you, and so do I Smiley!
