Trinity Newsletter - December 2018
October and November were busy months for Trinity youth.
The youth helped with Trunk or Treat and sold food as a fundraiser. Sincere thanks to all the youth and parents for helping with the event. Special thanks to Cathy Crotwell and Bud Gerdes for their help with the food preparation and sales. The youth raised a little over $300. The Senior Youth had a lock-in after Trunk or Treat. Special thanks to Theresa Hanovich for helping chaperone the lock-in.
The Middle School Youth participated in the Florida-Georgia District Middle School Youth Gathering the first weekend in November. Four adults, Chris Cesaroni, Kevin Riedl, Lisa Riedl and Bob Hanovich; and seven youth, Christopher, Travis, Selena, Mason, Theron, Evan and Ally attended the gathering. The mass events, breakout sessions and Family Group Time discussions were all great. The Saturday activities had us fully engaged from 7:30 am until 11:00 pm. All the adults were very thankful for the extra hour of sleep on Saturday due to Daylight Savings Time. The church bus was a real blessing getting us there and back in relative comfort, lots of room. Trinity Youth also helped with Novemberfest serving the barbecue. However, the scheduled car wash had to be cancelled because of cold weather.
December looks to be just as busy, if not busier, than October or November.
Tentative schedule of events for December 2018 follows:
The Senior Youth will have a Christmas party at the Club House in Statesboro on Saturday, 1 December, in the afternoon. We will depart from the church around 1 pm and return around 6 pm. Cost will be $35 per youth. We will bowl, play laser tag, ride gocarts, and one other event. Parents of youth are welcome to participate.

We have invited the Middle School Youth from St. Paul Lutheran Church in Statesboro to meet us at the clubhouse.
