Youth Group Blast

May 21, 2026

Dear Parents

Graduations happening, summer vacation has started. We have new students in the youth and some that are transferring onto the next chapter of their life. Before they leave, this week for Sabbath school in the youth we will take a look back at lessons learned and a look to the future as God will continue to lead us.

This is a big sabbath as we’ll have all the seniors graduating and the incoming freshmen.

I’m both excited to welcome new students and pensive as I bless the ones moving on. To maximize the wisdom we have with these graduated seniors I’m going to set up a panel with them to answer questions and share how they’ve grown over the last 4 years. But the incoming Freshmen are incredibly valuable since they are coming in with fresh eyes and perspectives. I will also have a panel of brave freshmen willing to get up and share their hopes and dreams of where they want to go with Jesus in the next 4 years.

I know this is a holiday weekend so if you and your teen aren’t going to be at CVC this week, I pray you’ll still find rest and be blessed by the Lord. And we look forward to seeing you and your family come June.

Connection Points

This week, try to spend a few minutes talking with your teenager about this topic. You might want to begin your conversation by reading 1 Cor 10:6 with these questions:
•  If you have kids someday what is something you’ve learned from your life you want to pass on to them?
•  What is a mistake you’ve watch someone else make that helped you?
•  What is one thing you think God wanted the Christians to learn from all the Israelites went through in the wilderness?
•  What is something you think God wants you to learn from the past?

Have a great time exploring these questions. Thanks for your prayers and support!

Announcements

Youth Campmeeting! - Campmeeting starts Wednesday May 27 at 7pm and runs through Saturday night. We will have amazing music, powerful messages, community service opportunities, and for something fun we're heading to Joe's Karting in Omaha for some fun go karting.

Bible Study Small Group - No Bible study this week due to graduation plans
Almost every Friday night Mic and Tori host a small group Bible study in their home from 7:15-9:00pm. This is a time for your teen to be able to ask questions about life, eternity, God, or really anything. We open up the Bible and dive in discovering what it means for us and our faith journey. This is one of the best things we do.
