Egg Hunt

The Eggs Were Found!

we hid over 1800 eggs

Holy week was a very busy week for us at the church so I apologize for the late post.  But just so you know, our Easter Egg Hunt went great!  We had over 1800 eggs and they were gone is just under 18 minutes!  There were potato sack races before hand and delicious "resurrection rolls" to eat after all the egg hunting was done.  Thanks to all the folks that helped out and to all the youth that stuffed all those eggs!

we had so many eggs, some of them were just "hidden" on the lawn

We Stuffed Over 1,000 Eggs!

Thanks to all the youth and parents that helped stuff Easter Eggs last Sunday.  In two hours, we managed to stuff over 1,000 eggs and eat three large pizzas!  We would also like to thank the good people of John Wesley UMC for donating so much candy.  We had so much candy, Mr. Leonard thought he had died and gone to candy heaven!

Join us this Saturday at 8am to help hide Easter Eggs for the 10am Easter Egg Hunt that is open to the entire community.

Falmouth Eats Together Clean-Up

This Thursday

This Thursday from 5:45 to about 6:15 pm we will be helping the folks from Falmouth Eats Together to put away chairs, move tables around, and generally help clean up.  F.E.T. is an awesome community event that feeds more than 300 people.  Show up between 4 and 6 pm to get a free meal yourself and then stick around to help us clean.  Bring a friend to join in on the food and fellowship!

Caned Food Drive

Chaperons Needed for Canned Food Drive

(Sunday, March 30, 4:00 to 5:30 pm)

We need chaperons for our canned food drive planned for our next meeting.  Chaperons will help lead a group of our youth as we walk around town and ask for food donations.  Our neighbors are very supportive of this mission and typically give generously.  This is a great way to spend some time with our youth and get a little exercise.  The more chaperons we have, the more groups we can have canvasing the neighborhood, and the more food we can collect.  The harder it is to pull our wagon full of cans and boxes, the more accomplished our youth can feel.  Help make this a successful event, email or talk to Jeremy if are willing to help.  

Youth are encouraged to bring a friend as well.  More people usually means more food for the Falmouth Service Center.

We're Stars!

Thank you to Falmouth Community Television for showing us around their studios last Sunday.  After a quick tour and explanation of how things work, we got a chance to host our own talk show.  We probably won't win any awards for best writing or visual effects (although we did learn how to use a green screen) but we might win the award for having the most fun.  We had a great time and may have even discovered some new talent.  Watch out Jimmy Fallon!

NEXT MEETING: March 30, 4:00 p.m. Canned Food Drive

Falmouth Eats Tomorrow Night!

Falmouth Eats Together Clean-Up

Meet in the fellowship hall to help put away chairs, tables, and generally help clean up after Falmouth Eats Together.  Show up early to enjoy the meal and feel free to bring a friend (many hands make light work).

Puppets are Fun!

The youth group would like to say a big thank you to Jacek Zuzanski and Dream Tale Puppets for another fun and successful workshop!  This time, we learned all about table top puppets and how to make them come alive.  We even had a chance to produce a few short skits.  We had a lot of fun performing for one another and some of us even laughed so hard we cried.  It was a great time!
