All youth 6th-12th grade are invited to join us for another Game Night at the Nord’s Saturday, April 1st 6:00pm-9:00pm. Our address is 610 Haglin Ave., Cameron.
This is NOT an April Fool’s joke. It’s for real! And we are planning on making Bacon-Wrapped Tater Tot Bombs.
If we get enough people to show up that are interested, it would be great to get a game of ultimate frisbee going at the park nearby or at the Cameron High School football field. Sun sets at 7:30, so come early to play outside.
We will be making brownies, served with ice-cream as well as some punch and other snacks.
If some aren’t interested in playing games outside in the beautiful weather, we will have board games and card games set up inside.
All youth 6th-12th grade are invited to join the Soul Garage youth at Skate City for a FUN NIGHT on Wednesday, March 29th from 5:45-8:45pm. This will be in place of our regular youth group activities.
Parents, please drop off your youth and pick them up directly from Skate City (just south of the movie theater off Highway SS). You can drop them off any time after 5:45pm. Please pick them up no later than 9:00pm.

The cost for this FUN NIGHT is FREE! Originally, we planned to charge a $3 charge to offset the cost, but Steve and Sarah Miller (Skate City owners) have provided us with a significant discount and the youth budget will cover the remainder.
Included is your choice of quad skates or inline skates, free pizza, and one free drink coupon (juice, water, or pop).
The only thing you would need to bring money for is if you want to buy additional food or additional drinks or plan to play arcade games.
We plan to bring card games and board games for any who want to hang out but don’t plan to skate. So, even if you don’t want to skate, please plan to come and hang out!
Invite your friends and come join us Wednesday, March 29th!
Due to a scheduling conflict, the EQUIP Middle School Retreat has been bumped back to April 28-29, 2017. All 6th-8th grade students are invited to join us for a multi-church retreat that we will be hosting at the Soul Garage. EQUIP is a crazy, fun and life-changing retreat designed to “equip” middle school students to be disciples who make disciples…who make more disciples. Cost is only $25!
Dave & Rennie Garda from Cadre Ministries will be the speakers.
Registration forms and payment due Wednesday, April 19th!
For more information, check out the EQUIP 2017 brochure.

Everyone coming with the group needs to fill out the MEFC Permission Form. If you went to the District youth conference in January in Green Bay, you DO NOT need to fill out the Medical Release Form, as we already have one on file for you. If you are under 18 and plan to rent equipment from Christie, you must fill out the Equipment Rental Release Form OR get a paper copy from Pastor Tony of the Full Form for Equipment Rental and have your parent sign that.
NOTE: If you just want to come and hang out in the lodge, but you do not want to go skiing, snowboarding or tubing, you will just need to fill out the MEFC Permission Form
On Wednesday, February 1st, 2017, we will NOT have our regular youth group gathering at the Soul Garage. INSTEAD, we have a very exciting opportunity to put our faith into action by serving the poor in our own local community through a vital service project at the new Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Rice Lake.
The Barron County ReStore has been relocated to the strip mall across from Gordy’s Market immediately next door to Pet Supplies Plus. This is the same area that has Cabin Coffee, Little Caesars, and the Old Southern BBQ Smokehouse. The address is 2500B S. Main St., Rice Lake. It is only 1 minute from the Soul Garage.
Parents, please plan to drop off your youth at the ReStore and pick them up directly from the ReStore as we will not be shuttling youth back and forth. You may drop them off as early as 5:45pm if you have other children to get to Awana by 6:00pm.
Pizza and water bottles will be provided between 5:45-6:15pm at the ReStore location. PLEASE plan to arrive as close to 6:00pm as possible to maximize the time we have to serve.
Here are a few details to be aware of:
ALL youth MUST have a waiver signed in order to volunteer. Waivers are attached (one for minors and one for those 18 or older). Click minor-form for minors. Click adult-form for those 18 or older.
Parents are strongly encouraged to join their teens on this special night and serve together.
Community service hours can be gained through this project for school e-portfolio credit or other.
Work boots are preferred, but sneakers are acceptable as well. No flip-flops or sandals!
Wear clothes you don’t mind getting ruined or dirty – there is a chance they could get ripped or stained.
Bring work gloves if you have some.

Today’s Scripture
Ephesians 3:7-13
7I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of Godʼs grace given me through the working of his power. 8Although I am less than the least of all the Lordʼs people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ, 9and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. 10His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, 11according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. 12In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence. 13I ask you, therefore, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.

Today’s Scripture
Ephesians 3:1-6
1For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles—
2Surely you have heard about the administration of Godʼs grace that was given to me for you, 3that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly. 4In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, 5which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to Godʼs holy apostles and prophets. 6This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
