🍪 We had a blast baking Stellar Eats .eats cookies (a total hit, and yes, we made these in the air fryer and they turned out great 👏).
🍁 Everyone loved making beautiful waxed fall leaves preserved with glycerin, the perfect seasonal art project!
🧀 🍇 A spread of cheese, crackers, and grapes made for a delicious snack while we shared updates, laughter, and life happenings.
💛 We even had a special drop-in guest (thank you for the sweet visit, such a welcome surprise for FERN and Laura!).
🐇 And of course, Blue the bunny made everyone’s evening!

Thank you for everyone who joined! Until next time! 🙌

🌴 We heard someone in youth group is going to Aruba! ☀️ 🇦🇼✨

Aruba is known for its stunning white-sand beaches, year-round sunshine and vibrant culture. It’s more than just a sunny getaway; it’s a chance to slow down, reflect, and recharge.

Aruba feels like the right spot for that — calm, sunny and a nice change of pace. Sometimes the best adventures are the ones that leave you feeling both energized and peaceful.

Is there anywhere you’ve been wanting to go? 🌺

🎬✨ Movie Trivia Night was such a hit at last Thursday’s youth group! We had so much fun diving into our favorite movies, like Inside Out, and exploring how movies can help us talk about emotions, growth, and connection. Movies are also a great way to see different perspectives and understand feelings that can be hard to put into words. Such a fun and meaningful night with our amazing youth! 💛

🎥 Join us at our next youth group meeting as we continue where we left off in Movie Jeopardy, and much more! Stay tuned for details! 🍿💬
