YOUTH ACTIVITIES
"Chicken Night" for 7th-12th grade youth, at St. Patrick's
On Sunday, May 4th, from 6:00-8:00 pm, youth in 7th-12th grade from any local parish are invited to St. Patrick's for Chicken Night! The evening will include eating chicken wings, an outdoor game of Ultimate Chicken (if you're wondering what that is, check out www.wearerooted.net for photos from previous Chicken Nights), and some small group conversation about what it means to "not be chicken." Specifically, looking back at the past school year for times that we've done something brave and seeing what the Bible has to say about courage. At the end we'll do a Senior Sendoff for two graduating seniors.
Parent Tribe
Parents whose kids are going to Chicken Night are invited to come to Parent Tribe during the second half of the time. Meet from 7:00-7:45ish in the Parlor (the first room on the left when you enter from the bell tower doors) and then you'll go to join the youth in the Zaga Room (downstairs) for the Senior Sendoff.
