The Junior High Youth and Their Mission Adventures      

This past Sunday, the Junior High Sunday School class visited a member of our church family, Mary Barnett.  Mary lives in the new Country Club Retirement Center in Whitney near the Lake Whitney Country Club.  She has lived there for about three months.  Mary met them at the door and gave them the tour of the entire place.  It is a beautiful retirement and an assisted living center.  The class was most impressed with the theater room.  It has huge recliners (9 of them) and a big screen on the wall to watch movies or TV.  They loved it!!  Mary invited them to come and watch a movie with her sometime.

After giving them a tour, the chef in the dining room served a prepared snack of cookies and ice cream to the class.  Mary was presented a card and flowers and she expressed how pleased she was for the visit. It reminds us that seemingly small things can mean so much.  A picture of the class with Mary is shown below.

The youth then went to IHOP to eat, and while they were there, paid the check for a family with four small boys.  Next stop was City Park where they enjoyed the great weather and a few got wet in the creek. All of the youth who served food at the Church’s Valentine Banquet were present, except for one.  The Youth earned the funds for the flowers and meals by serving at the Valentine Banquet and want to thank those attending that event for their generosity.

Just another fun day with an energetic, neat group.
