LUMY 10/12

Sunday Night LUMY His Voice for Sudan- LUMY is the place to be every Sunday night, and tonight, Sunday, October 12th, LUMY is having a very special event. We have an opportunity that has spoken to our hearts,and I hope it will speak to yours. Here in the Student ministry of this church, we fully support international mission work. We currently support an orphanage in Guatemala by going and serving with the people every other year and we will be continuing this service indefinitely. The new opportunity that we have is partnering with a group called His Voice for Sudan. This ministry is dear to our hearts as Sarah has served in Sudan as a part of this ministry. There are currently two fully functioning orphanages, one in Morobo and one in Lura. They are looking to build another. We have decided to partner with them to make a difference in a lost world looking for hope. We hope that you will partner with us. Join us tonight, Sunday, October 12th, at 6:30pm in the FLC/Wesley Hall for an ALL LUMY, all church, and all family and friends event to hear His Voice for Sudan. Tonight you will have the opportunity to support His Voice (including, but not limited to): screen printed shirts made on site, purchasing photographs of the children and orphans in Sudan, and just plain giving.

Bonfire- Just a quick reminder, we are having a bonfire, pumpkin –carving contest, desserts, and tons of fun on Thursday, October 16th , from 7-10pm at the Evans’ house and property. Put it on your calendar. More details to come.

Snacks for LUMY- We now have the new popcorn machine to help feed our ever-growing youth program. This item did cost quite a bit of money, so if you feel like you are able to give, please make checks out to LUMC and put “LUMY snacks” in the memo. We appreciate any offering you are able to give to help offset this cost.

Bible Study- Wednesday night Bible Studies are in full swing. 10th-12th grade meet from 5-6pm in Study Center 4 (across from the LUMY room). 6th and 7th meet from 6:15-7pm in the LUMY Room. And 8th and 9th grade meet from 7:15-8:15pm in Study Center 4.

Prayer Group- LUMY has started a prayer group just for students. We currently are meeting on Thursday nights. If you have prayer requests, we would love to lift them up in prayer. Or if you feel as though you would like to be a part of this group, we would love to have you join us to learn about prayer and to pray for students and their needs. Please contact us to give us prayer requests, or to let us know you are coming so we can get you time and location of our meeting.

College Connect- In our church, we want to be able to support our students as they move on from high school to college. One of the ways we reach them is by sending them “care packages” around finals time to know that people back home are thinking of them. To be sensitive to what students want and/or need, we are excited to announce that we will now send them gift cards to use at their own discretion during those busy times of the school year. So, we need your help with two things. 1, we need to start collecting $5 gift cards from chain stores (Starbucks, Target, Taco Bell, Subway, Sonic, etc). Please drop these gift cards in one of the LUMY Black Boxes located outside the youth office (rm 206) or outside the FLC/Wesley Hall. 2, we need to know who is in college and what their address is if they are between the ages of 17-24 and are taking any college classes. Please email this information to Andrew.beard@lumcmo.org.

LUMY Coffee- We are still selling coffee, but we are currently just selling it out of our office. If you are interested in coffee or hot chocolate, please stop by the LUMY office (room 206) and pick some up for $10. We will start selling again during the services starting in November

let Andrew or Sarah know if you have any questions, comments, or prayer requests.
