Highway Youth @ St. Timothy UMC

More Than Friends - Part 2: 3/11/18

The Highway is the youth ministry of St. Timothy UMC. We exist to empower youth to move from passengers of their faith to drivers of their faith in Jesus Christ.

Locations & Times

St. Timothy UMC

335 Asbury Dr, Mandeville, LA 70471, USA

Sunday 9:45 AM

All relationships can be tricky, but none seem trickier in high school than the romantic ones. When a relationship moves from “friends” to “more than friends” status, things can get complicated in a hurry. In this series, as we look at what God’s says about it, we’ll see that being more than friends doesn’t have to be as complicated as it seems.

APEX Youth Offering

Don't forget, we are partnering with our new friends at APEX Youth Center in New Orleans. Remember to bring your offering next week. Soon we will be presenting our first donation to them and find out more about how we will be working with them in the future. Until then, be in prayer for the work they do with the youth in New Orleans.

2 Peter 1:5-9 (MSG)
So don’t lose a minute in building on what you’ve been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding, alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder, warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others. With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature in your experience of our Master Jesus. Without these qualities you can’t see what’s right before you, oblivious that your old sinful life has been wiped off the books.

Genesis 2:18-20 (MSG)
God said, “It’s not good for the Man to be alone......

What is God saying to you? What are you going to do?

Part of not breaking up with your brain is asking questions. Send us your questions and they WILL be answered. NO QUESTION IS OFF LIMITS!!!

CROSSROADS 5PM-7PM | Sunday Crossroads is a great place for students to invite their friends! From 5-6:00 PM we hangout, participate in recreation, missions, or an interactive teaching. At 6:00 PM students can share a meal with one another. This week students will be playing games along with a fun 3-legged obstacle course.

Senior Sunday Sunday | April 29th | 11AM | Main Sanct. *Note the date change. Mark your calendars for Senior Sunday; the day we honor all of our beloved seniors! At the 11 AM service we will be showing a slideshow, as well as honoring our seniors with a Bible. Immediately following, we will be having a luncheon in the gym for the senior and their family. If your senior would like to participate, you can begin by sending a their full name, college attending or after-school plan, and a photo. Also, under classman parents, you can begin letting me know if you would like to volunteer help set up Senior Sunday.

Highway Youth Crew Join this awesome team of volunteers! If you are interested in serving in the youth ministry in any capacity, we encourage you to sign up for the Highway Youth Crew by signing up at our welcome table at the front of the Highway or emailing us. We would love to talk to you about how you can get plugged in to what area of our ministry best fits your gifts and your commitment level! Our crew is for youth and for adults. Some of the areas include the tech team, the praise band, crossroads, welcome team, life groups, roadwork, donut pick up, drivers, and chaperones!

FAST LANE Wednesday | 7-8PM | Highway Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it! Life moves pretty fast as a junior and senior. If we don't stop and look around to find out what it means to follow Jesus, we could miss something BIG! On Wednesday nights, we'll talk about how to live life in the fast lane as a follower of Jesus in High School and beyond.

DEVOS Thursday | 6:30 AM Cafe Du Monde | Donut King (Hwy 59) Breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day. Why then would we not want to fill up on the Word as well? Students can drop in on their way to school at either of our two locations to grab a bite to eat, visit with friends, and participate in student-led devotionals for encouragement and inspiration for the day.
