Here we Go! Another school year has started! A lot of families are transitioning from summer break to the reality of school. Football and band season are upon us and there is excitement in the air. Katie, Ava, Easton and I are also getting back into the swing of things as well. Katie is starting another year as a Kindergarten teacher in Van Wert, Ava has started full time Kindergarten and Easton has a new babysitter for this year. All this said, Dad is busy in the mornings getting Ava to school and Easton to his destination for the day. The Wells house is a busy place! As life begins to get busier, I am reminded that we need to take time to be with God. Some-times this means shutting my brain down and just being in His presence. Silence is a hard thing to achieve in a house with small children, however it is so important to our spiritual health. Genesis 2:3: "Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made." The root of the words Sabbath" and rest, is to cease. It is important to rest and rejuvenate. This for me not only means to rest physically it means to rest mentally. It is diffi-cult enough to take time in my busy schedule to rest physically, but it is even harder for me to make my mind quiet and just be in God’s presence. On the following pages your will find the 2019-2020 Jr and Sr High schedule. I spent time re-flecting on last year and I felt it is important to lay out the whole year for the Jr and Sr High Youth ministries. I realize that things will come up and we will add things and subtract things as we go along. As we begin, the Jr and Sr High will be combined. As we grow I would love to see our lesson time split off and a parent or other adult leader teach a lesson to one of the groups while I am with the other group. Be in prayer that God will send the students we need to reach this year and that we will. We will be focusing on 3 core statements this year as we come together each week. They are: I am created to pursue a relationship with my creator I trust what Jesus did to transform who I need to become I exist to demonstrate God’s Love to those around me I am excited for what God is about to do in Delphos and in our Church. I see the spirit moving and I am ready to jump on board for what He has planned! Please be in prayer for God to move and for all of us including myself to recognize where He is going and step out in faith! Thank You for all of your support! God Bless, Wayne Wells (937)684-66844087495339090002019-2020 School Year EventsWeekly Youth Group Join us for a lesson, prayer, youth lead circle discussions, games and a snack.

Monthly Fun get away events We will start with prayer and a short devotion time and go somewhere fun! Check out the schedule! This year we have a Danny Gokey concert, Corn Maze, a trip to Mad River Mountain, Hero Day and Sky Zone. This is a great time to invite a friend to join in the fun and then bring them back the following week for our normal lesson. Random Acts of Kindness We will spend time praying for the Holy Spirit to move and then watch out Delphos! We are coming to Bless you. This will be a scavenger hunt event where we do small things like return all the carts from the Chief parking lot to larger blessing like buying someone’s gas. Each person we en-counter will be asked if we can say a prayer for them! Last year was amazing and it is awesome to watch God work to bring our Youth to exactly the right person at the right moment! Prayer Walks This year we will be going deeper in our faith and spending time doing some prayer walks. We will do this periodically during youth group and we will join together on the schools scheduled 2-hour delays. Christmas activities In December we will again support the church bazaar by making candy and serving at the bazaar. We will make ornaments to support our community’s Canal Museum and we will have a Christ-mas Bash with a gift exchange. Not Your Average Thanksgiving Dinner!
