Parents of Youth Group and Teens,
Though we are scheduled for at Youth Group gathering this Sunday, Jan. 25, the prediction of the severe snow storm necessitates our time together with the Sisters be changed to Sunday, Feb. 8 from 2:30 to 4:00pm at Maria Hall at 190 Maria Hall Drive, Danville. We will be playing Bingo with the Sisters with a Valentine twist for our delight. Prizes will abound!
Thank you once again for your support. Being able to draw our young people together as disciples is an honor and privilege. Special thanks to Mr. Ed Dilg for his expertise in creating fun in the construction of the wooden tops and their spinning on Jan. 11.

Einstein said,” If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.” I, for one, believe fairytales spark imagination, help children develop a broader understanding of the world and its possibilities, which can lead to more creative and innovative thinking. Fairytales are not only for children but for all of us. Therefore I invite both groups to:
