Hello Youth Ministry! Was that a great hike or what? As many of you know, our group went on its first hike this past Saturday at Griffith Park. The hike was a chance to get away from our every day routine and get closer to God’s creation. The dusty trail offered many beautiful and thought provoking sights: shrubs and flowers growing in the areas that burnt in the most recent fires, colorful butterflies, a tiny green forest, deep blue skies, and quiet landscapes of our city from above. We even got to see the fire department training to fight fires from their helicopter. The best part of it was being able to share it all with old and new friends. Thank you Lili, Marco, Chris, Maria, Delmy, Krystal, Jackie, Erasmo, Enrique and Mark for coming.

I hope everyone can join us at our “Father’s Day Workshop” this coming Saturday, June 14, 2008 from 10am-12pm by the lunch benches. The idea is to create a personal Father’s Day card. This is a chance to share ideas with the other members on how to make a unique card for Dad. We will supply the materials for free but feel free to bring anything you wish to use in making your card. Remember, there’s no charge! So come by and make your Dad a card. Please let me know if you’re coming so I can make sure we have enough materials for everyone
Also, if you want to “Meet Jesus at the Movies” you can do so this Sunday, June 15, 2008 from 7pm-8:30pm here at Blessed Sacrament. This is a very special event that will help us find Jesus in many of the movies we know and love. It is always amazing to find God working in our everyday lives. Come by and share this time with us to see how Jesus reaches out to you from the movie theatre. Feel free to bring a friend or come with your family. This event is FREE so don’t worry about that. Let’s get together!

Please let me know if you’re coming to “Meet Jesus at the Movies” so I can have a YM Shirt ready for you to wear.
It was great going hiking with you all. I had fun and I hope you did too. Thank you everyone who makes these events possible and thank you teens for making it a success.
