ATTEND CIY MOVE High School students and future high school stu-
dents are invited to attend CIY MOVE on July 21-
26 @ Western IL University in Macomb, IL. Aaron
needs your registration and permission slips
ASAP. This year’s theme: “This Changes Every-
thing.” Something has to change. And yet, no mat-
ter how hard we try even our best efforts fall flat.
But what if we’re missing the point? What if it’s not
about trying? What if it’s about what’s already been
done? The resurrection changes everything.
MOVE 2014 will examine the writings of James: the
brother of the resurrected God. Students will discov-
er that faith begins with the resurrection, and see
that this changes everything.
5th Sunday Youth Rally
Sunday June 29th there will be
a youth rally at the First Chris-
tian Church in West Salem.
