2012 Cardia Deo: “Sent”

March 2-4, 2012 at Big Sandy Camp, McGregor. Open to Senior High Youth REGISTRATION DUE JANUARY 29 Cost: $ 110 if postmarked on or before February 3, 2012 Includes housing, Saturday breakfast through Sunday lunch, t-shirt and all Gathering activities Deposit: $50 per person, non-refundable. Registrations are not accepted without a deposit. Checks should be written to Trinity and the church will send a group check. W e are Called, Gathered, Equipped and Sent to share the Heart of God (Cardia Deo) in the world. This year we focus on what it means to be Sent. Bible studies led by the LYO Board and college interns, servant events, worship, mystery event, camp life, and an adult track led by the retreat chaplain all make this event a deeply meaningful, fun and faith-nurturing event. Evaluations by youth from previous retreats consistently say that the Bible studies and servant events are the highlight of the weekend. No matter our group size (many churches bring 1-5 youth), this event is a worthwhile investment in the faith life of our high school youth! Registrations are available at http://www.nemnsynod.org/Youth/CardiaDeo/tabid/39124/Default.aspx. You must complete the health and release form and sign a copy of the participant covenant form. Turn in all forms and deposit to Shivon by January 29.

Faith Pals

We are looking for around 5 adults from varied generations from within our congregation to be “Faith Pals” with our Sunday School children these next two months as part of the discipleship practice: encourage. Sunday School children will be divided into small groups and assigned a “Faith Pal”. Faith Pals will receive a list of the names and pictures of the children in their small group. Faith pals are asked to pray for the children in their group and watch for and greet them in worship. They will also be asked to fill out short faith “notes” for their small group. Each note will share an aspect of their faith story. Ex. “I was baptized when I was….” These notes will be shared in their small groups during Sunday School times. During the month of February, each “Faith Pal” will be assigned to a Sunday School morning time. During Sunday School opener on that date the faith pal will come and be introduced by their small group. Please call Shivon for more information or to volunteer. This is what “Passing on the Faith” is all about!

Secret Pals Sign Up

We have close to 30 young children in Sunday School and are looking for adults and Senior High youth to be their Secret Pal during the month of February. A mailbox for each of the Sunday School kids will be placed in the library. Secret Pals drop small notes and surprises in their pal’s box during the month. Be sneaky about it. On March 11 we will gather between services for a Secret Pals’ party where you will reveal your identity and meet a new little friend. Please call Shivon or sign up in the narthex by January 29. This is a great way to encourage a child in their faith growth and to be encouraged by a young one. You will receive more information upon sign up.

Cross Training

A Training Event for Adults Who Work With Youth, January 27 & 28 Discipleship is not an ‘activity’ that we ‘do.’ It is a life that we lead. Ultimately, it is about following Jesus. As adult leaders, our mission is to accompany young people on their faith journey as they learn to follow Jesus. Research clearly shows the importance of trained and equipped adults to effectively pass on faith to young people. What adults believe matters. How adults accompany young people on their faith journey matters. The Practice Discipleship Training will help you grow deeper in your faith and skills with young people this year! CROSS TRAINING is the “live” version of the online webinar series for the Practice Discipleship Project training. (Learn more at www.elcaymnet.org/elcatraining). Each session is a separate training, so come for all or come when you can! Multiple registration options are available to meet your needs. CROSS TRAINING is for everyone (clergy, paid and volunteer staff, parents) involved in Youth and Family Ministry. If you are an adult, if you care about the faith of young people...this training is for you! Learn more at: http://www.nemnsynod.org/Youth/CrossTraining/tabid/39121/Default.aspx or by contacting Shivon.
