We are providing an opportunity to serve together the first Thursday night of every month. On Thursday, April 2, we will meet in Room 2207 (upstairs in the West Building) at 6:30pm to assemble sack lunches for the Food Bank Ministry at Central United Methodist Church.

The Young Adult Serve Night will be in addition to our regular service projects though FaithWork.  In fact, we’ll be serving at Hillcrest Transitional Housing and Central UMC on April 18 at 9am. 

I hope to see everyone on April 2 at 6:30pm and also on April 18 at 9am!!!

I also wanted to remind everyone that we will be having our monthly Worship Experience THIS THURSDAY NIGHT in the Wesley Chapel at 7pm.  It will be an awesome night with some laid-back worship, a short message, and an opportunity to meet other young adults.  You should even be home in plenty of time to watch the Memphis-Missouri game.   :)
