Hello friends!
I have a confession to make. You see, I am not the biggest fan of sports that don’t take place on ice. Thus, I didn’t even think when we planned a big event (Silent Disco 2024) on Super Bowl Sunday. My bad…I just don’t pay attention to stuff like that.
But apparently, y’all do! After about 15 conversations, we decided to put it up for a vote two weeks ago at Oasis Youth. We asked the students to put their vote into a jar that either said “Move the Silent Disco” or “Keep It On February 11th”. Yep, we let the kids practice democracy and it worked out. The “move” jar had 70 votes and the “keep” jar only had one. AND upon closer inspection, it was a piece of paper that said “Move Silent Disco.” So! The decision is unanimous.
How great is that?
So, the students and leaders have spoken.
We will host our silent disco on February 25th!
But…what about this weekend? Great news! We will still have a casual youth gathering tonight. We will ensure the game is on somewhere and invite students to campus from 6-8 for snacks, pizza, and games.
This will be an open-format “chill night,” so we are asking you to help a little bit!
Would you be willing to send your child with a snack of sorts? We are looking for chips, sweets, and simple finger foods. If you cannot, no worries. However, if you can, we would really appreciate it.
Oasis Youth will provide pizza and beverages if y’all can help with the rest of the snack bar!
- Chill Night at the church on Sunday, February 11th (We conclude at 8 PM, not until the game is over, please plan accordingly!)
- No youth on February 18th due to the holiday.
- Silent disco on February 25th!
- Then, we are back to normal programming on March 3rd!
We have so much excitement happening around Oasis Youth and we are so thankful that you are a part of it! If you have any questions at all, please reach out!
More of Jesus…
..less of…
