YL Update- Muckfest

Last night we had our annual Muckfest. It is our epic food and muck war. Let me tell you it was incredible. We had our biggest turn out yet, over 200 students. Do you know what the best part about Muckfest is? That LS YL's goal with Muckfest is: For students to have fun and get to be kids. How often do we want high school students to act as an adult, be responsible, have manners, work, get a certain test score, GPA, or award? Last night, we threw all that out the window and threw oatmeal, food, and slime at one another. It was a beautiful sight watching kids be kids and experience freedom.

Over 200 students at MUCKFEST 2013


Kids being kids.

Our Fall YL Calendar is full of opportunities for high school students to know freedom and be a part of the YL family. Please see and share our link http://lsyl.weebly.com/ to stay up to date on Club and special events. In addition to that we offer small groups- called campaigners. Each group is lead by a volunteer YL leader and organized by grade and school. If you would like more info on that please email me at: traceecobb@gmail.com.

5 C's of Young Life

Club: Club is our once a weekly event that lets kids be kids. We give kids the opportunity to be kids again by singing, dancing, and playing crazy games. Students hear a message from the Bible in terms they can understand. YL club is for everyone, no matter where they stand in their faith.

Contact Work: Where there are high school kids there are YL leaders. We believe in earning the right to be heard by building friendships with kids. We come to their turf, whether that's sporting events standing in the stands beside them or coming up to after school and grabbing a Sonic.

Campaigners: Campaigners are small groups made up of students and a leader committed to sharing their lives, struggles, and joys with one another. Student grow deeper in their faith as they explore the Bible and God's love in a life-changing way.

Camp: Young Life states...."Camp is the best week of your life." That is a proven fact. Kids get the chance to have adventure camping at resort quality facilities and share an unforgettable experience. Kids get to leave their normal routine while they hear about and process the need for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Church: Young Life is not the church. We desire our students to be a part of local a congregation. If our students are ready to go deeper we strongly encourage them to attend a local church.
