Girls' Night and Man Retreat Update

Hello all!

Here's an update on the events that were to occur this past Friday night!

The Girls' Night had to be cancelled/postponed.  After Sarah called all the girls in the youth group, she found out that only one youth was planning on participating.  When that one youth realized she was the only one, she didn't want to sleep over either!  So, Sarah had the one youth choose a movie, and the two went to see Tooth Fairy and hung out at the mall for a bit Friday night.

Sarah would like to try to have this event again later, so girls, please let Sarah know if and when you want it to happen.  We need you to commit to it too because it's a shame when an event is planned and then no one participates!  We want the Girls' Night event to be a chance for the girls in Zion's youth group to get to know each other better and grow together in Christ!  So, let Sarah know when you want to try this event again!

The Man Retreat was reportedly a blast!  Three adults and three youth went up to McFee for a night of ice fishing and camping!  They had to dig out some snow to set up camp, collected their firewood, made their own meals, and did Bible studies and chatted while on the ice.  They managed to get a couple bites, but unfortunately they didn't catch anything.  They still had a lot of fun, though, and learned about fishing themes in the Bible.  The youth who attended this event have expressed interest in another fishing/camping-type trip in a couple months, so let Sarah know if you want this to happen!

Blessings in Christ!
