First Congregational Church Youth Ministry

We’re happy to announce that FCC Youth Ministry finally has its own transportation! An anonymous donor from the church has given us a 20 passenger shuttle bus (with A/C) which will greatly help us get to our various off-campus events including Camp, Ski Trip, Boomers trips, Beach trips, and more. With 20 seats, we’ll still need drivers for most events but we’ll need significantly fewer than before.

In fact, if anyone out there has a Class-B Passenger license, we could use you now. Although the bus is in our possession we will be working on getting people licensed to drive it for at least a couple of months so unless we find someone who’s already willing and qualified, the bus will be out of commission for this summer.

This will give our whole ministry a bit more versatility as we’ll be able to travel together a lot more easily.We’re also working on getting decals of the FCC Logo for the sides and the rear.

I don’t know what we’d do without Boomers! It’s tons of fun and it’s oh so very easy!

On Tuesday, August 3, all Jr. High Youth (grades 6-8) are invited to bring a friend and come down with us to Boomers in El Cajon. At Boomers there’s Go-Carts, Bumper Boats, a Rock Wall, Mini-Golf, an Arcade, a Ferris Wheel, and more! It’s a great place to spend the day and this will be an absolutely wonderful trip on which to bring your friends!

We’re meeting at the church parking lot (404 8th street) at 12:30pm (after lunch) We’ll leave shortly thereafter to go straight down to Boomers in El Cajon. We’ll spend the day having fun and we’ll leave from Boomers at around 6pm. We’ll get dinner and be back home between 7:30-8pm. Students should bring $10 for their Wrist Band and some extra money for dinner on the way back (as well as for anything else on which they might like to spend money).

Everyone who goes will have to have filled out the FCC Youth Handbook for 2010-2011 (many students may have already filled it out for the year). We will NEED DRIVERS. So if any parents would like to come and spend the day with us, their help would be greatly appreciated. Please RSVP with Wes in the church office (760)789-3348 or by email at wesellis@fccramona.org if you’d like to come on this trip.
