UPCOMING APRIL EVENTS
EASTER EGG HUNT—The UMYF will assist with the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 11th from 9am to 1pm. We’ll hide eggs, share the true Easter story, and help with the luncheon and clean-up. It’s a fun time for all, kids and Youth!
30 HOUR FAMINE—From midnight April 17th to 6 am on April 19th the UMYF will fast for 30 hours to raise money and awareness to fight world hunger. During the fast , the Youth will ex[perience what millions of children feel every day: gnawing hunger, light headedness and fatigue from lack of food. World Vision provides us with activity ideas to help us better understand their plight and poverty on a more personal level. In 2019 the UMYF raised enough money to feed 3 children for an entire year. We’re hoping to do at least that well, again, in 2020!
PANCAKE BREAKFAST—To celebrate the breaking of our 30 Hour Famine , we will provide a pancake breakfast for everyone on Sunday, April 19th, starting at 9am. So come early to church, eat some breakfast, and talk with the Youth about their last 30 hours! All donations will be divided between the 30 Hour Famine and UMYF funds.
