God Time
We are currently in the season of Lent. Lent is all about preparing ourselves and walking the road that leads to Easter. We prepare ourselves by spending more time with God. We may do this through reading scripture, having times of prayer, or by giving something up for the Lord.
Just remember, if you are giving something up for God, then you should also take something on. If you have given up chocolate, then use the money you are saving to help feed the hungry. If you are giving up a meal, then use that time in prayer or to serve someone. If you have decided to spend more private time with God, then I want to encourage you to use the youth devotional that the church provides for you called Devo-zine. you can pick it up every other month in the youth room.
This devotional is written for youth by youth. It helps to connect where you are in your life to where God is. It will reveal new truths to you each and every day and it will help connect you to the Lord.
I want to challenge you as you walk this road towards Easter to do something different, to give something up, to take on something new, and to get closer to God. If you are willing, God is wil meet with you in some spectacular ways.

Fundraising Opportunities:
Sheetz Coupons
You can pick yours up from PJ. You sell them for $4 each and make $1.50 per coupon. If you sell a book, that is $15. That money goes into your own personal youth account and can be used for anything youth group related. There is no end date for this fundraiser and these things practically sell themselves.
Trinity Hats
Encourage your family and friends to buy one. They are available in tan, black, and white. They cost $15 each and we make $5 on each one. This money is going towards our mission trip this summer to Erie. Our goal is to make the trip as cheap as possible for everyone who wants to attend. People can signup for hats in Bishop Hall at Trinity.
Church Event Help
We need help every Wednesday during lent in the kitchen cleaning up after the meal. We also need help with childcare during church meeting nights, which are the first Tues. each month. (Also childcare is needed at the Pysanka Egg Classes.) If you want to help with any or all of these events, $30 will be put in your account for future events. Sign up in the youth room.

You and your friends are invited to gather at Trinity on Saturday, March 21, at 10 am. We will return by 4 pm. The cost of the event is $10 and you will need money for lunch.

Movie Night in Clarion
On Friday, April 24th we will meet at Trinity at 7pm and head to Clarion for the Indiana District Movie Night. The cost is $10.
