Summer Cereal Drive

This summer we will be partnering with the Arkansas Foodbank for their Summer Cereal Drive! We will be collecting boxes of cereal at SUNDAY SCHOOL and at ALL SUMMER YOUTH EVENTS. Please take your kids shopping to let them pick out some cereal to donate anytime this summer!

All 5th-12th graders, our First BIG FUN NIGHT will be at Big Rock Fun Park (Baseline Rd.), 6:30 - 8:30pm

Drop-off and pick-up at Big Rock (or we will be coordinating rides from the 5:30 VBC volunteer meeting if you'll be attending that beforehand).  

Cost is $10. Pay and register online OR bring $10 cash towards the cost of a 3-activity bracelet (bring extra arcade money if desired). 

Choose 3 activities from: mini-golf, bumper boats, maze, go-karts, and batting cage.

Vacation Bible Camp (Mon. June 23 - Thu. June 26)

All 5th-12th graders, you're invited to volunteer at VBC this summer. Volunteers will be needed 8:30 - 12:00pm. 

Phyouth (rising 8th - 12th graders) are invited to serve as "camp counselor" traveling through the "camp" with a certain grade level of students.

Assembly

Assembly is the our longest standing, and most beloved Arkansas Conference Youth Ministry event. Jr High (completed 6th-8th) and Senior High (9th-graduates) are separate groups who stay the same week at Hendrix College. Assembly allows students to be in small groups with United Methodist Youth from across the state, worship together, and participate in fun activities—making memories for a lifetime! Come enjoy the beautiful campus of Hendrix college, and get the full experience of living in their historic dorms, eating in the award winning cafeteria, and worshipping together in the auditorium with nationally renowned speakers and band. This is an experience you won't want to miss.
