Random Acts of Kindness

Scavenger Hunt

Meet us as Panda Express (across from the church) at 5:00 pm for dinner and ground rules.  From there youth will break off into communities (teams) to perform and video random acts of kindness.

Some acts of kindness include: proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to someone you meet or a statue for at least 20 seconds, buy a drink for someone working, etc.

Last year we had an AWESOME time laughing, serving and being together and we hope that you won't miss out.

If you want to join us please make sure I have a current (2011-2012) permission slip (see below for a downloadable copy) and money for dinner.

Parents!
Below you will find a medical release form as well as a photo consent form.

The medical release is extremely important, and will be used to notify you in case of an emergency, and for basic medical care and/or treatment.  Please fill it out completely.  You can have your student return it during youth group, mail it (975 Rolling Acres Road Lady Lake 32159), fax it (352-753-3982), or drop it off at the church.  

The photo consent form is used for permission to publish pictures of your child on our website, used for print or on our facebook page.  We will be doing lots of great things over the year and we like to show our congregation what we are up to throughout the year.  If you consent, please return this form with the medical release.

Both forms will be good for the 2011 calendar year.

If you have any questions regarding any youth event please contact Holly Reimer at hollyr@northlakepc.org or at the church office 352-753-8484.
