[RISE Weekly] Friendsgiving this Saturday! 🦃
Youth tomorrow at the BEHNAN'S, 6:15–8:15 pm! Friendsgiving this Saturday! Turkey Bowl this Sunday!
Dear Parents,
There are busy weeks and then there are CRAZY-INSANE-INTENSE-BUSY weeks – which is what I’m experiencing right now as I’m in the midst of finals week at the seminary. BUT, I am so thankful to be in the MOST FUN ministry because I get some fun breaks with YOUTH this Wednesday, FRIENDSGIVING this Saturday, and TURKEY BOWL this Sunday! And I know we’re all looking forward to Thanksgiving break coming next week… Let’s go!!
THIS WEDNESDAY @ THE BEHNANS!
Join us TOMORROW NIGHT (11/16) from 6:15-8:15 pm back at the BEHNANS (36750 Robin Scott St., Murrieta, CA 92562)! Remember to DRESS WARM – the Behnans are also making us HOT CHOCOLATE! 😊
This week, we are in Revelation 3:1–6 as we come to Christ’s letter to the church in Sardis. Each week, we have seen each church get increasingly worse. Sardis, whom many from the outside would think is alive and shining bright is actually – as Jesus exposes – dead. This church shines on the outside, but on the inside, they are filled with unbelief, sin, and false doctrine. Jesus will essentially ask us a very important question tomorrow night: Are you totally deceived?
My great prayer is that all in our ministry would be able to confidently hold fast to this promise from our Lord:
“He who overcomes will thus be clothed in white garments; and I will not erase his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.” (Revelation 3:5)
FRIENDSGIVING THIS SATURDAY! 🦃🍽
THIS SATURDAY, 11/19, each Discipleship Group will meet in various homes to cook a thanksgiving dish! Then, at the end of the night, we will bring all of our dishes and eat them all together! Then finish with a BROOMBALL tournament! 🧹

During 1st service this Sunday (11/20), we will head down to the football field for a football tournament! Students should come dressed in clothes & shoes that are appropriate to play in. We will first meet where we normally meet on Sundays behind Children’s Ministry and then we will walk down to the field all together once everyone is there.
NEXT WEDNESDAY (11/23) = NO YOUTH
NEXT Wednesday (11/23) there will be NO YOUTH – THANKSGIVING BREAK! Instead, I’d encourage your family to join us for our Thanksgiving Eve Service!
Join us for a family gathering for one hour on November 23rd, at Murrieta Valley High School in the PAC (where we normally meet) from 6–7 pm for a time of thanks, praise, prayer, and sweet fellowship (and a treat).
Childcare is available for 0-4 year-olds ONLY; space is limited, so please REGISTER HERE.
We will resume our Jr High meetings on Sunday, 11/27, and Wednesday, 11/30.
Excited for this fun week with your students! See you tomorrow for youth at the BEHNANS! 😁
In Him,
Terrell

Last Week
Youth at Rival last week was awesome!! It was such a blessing to stay warm inside with hot chocolate, and the closer quarters allowed for more bonding between everyone. We played a fun game that had to do with syllables and it was hilarious to watch each team try to guess the words. After worship, Terrell taught on Jesus’ letter to the church in Thyatira and how the church was being corrupted from the inside. He challenged the students evaluate where they tolerate sin and remember that one day Christ will come and judge every sin that has not been covered by His redeeming work on the cross. Small groups gave us a great opportunity to discuss this in further detail with our students.
Wednesday Night Details
