Sprague Young Life

Hello! It's the new team leader here!

 Tonight became an impromptu event. As we (the leaders) sat in our team meeting, we realized that with multiple events happening at Sprague, our student numbers would be very low. We decided to have a plan B incase less than 20 students showed up, and that we’d do something spontaneous and fun. So, when 19 showed, we shocked them all by playing “Bigger or Better”! Teams of about 5 took a penny to a house, asking for anything bigger or better than that penny. Then we went from, house to house swapping items, trying to get the biggest or best thing. We met back at LimeBerry to see who won, and teams showed with items such as a TV, a vanity, bags of chips and toilet paper, and the winning item: A new Futon!

We weren’t sure what the night would hold while sitting in our meeting, but it turned into a great way to spend time getting to know kids better. We are realizing that spring is a busy time for everyone, as numbers at club fluctuate. So, we decided that whichever students show up, we will make it worth their while.

Prayer requests: Keep praying for us as we are filling camp spots! Also, spring is busy for both students AND leaders so pray for perseverance as we are in this push towards camp and finishing off the year strongly. Finally, for the camp funds. God has them, and we are trusting him to provide.

Events to know: Car Wash at Trinity on May 19^th 10-2 (come get your car washed!)
and Garage Sale on June 2. I’ll email the location out soon, but if you have anything you need to get rid of, let us know!!

Thanks Tim and Jean Rawlings for the delicious food, Butlers for the use of your warm home, and Mckenzie Trautman for coming and hanging out with us tonight! We appreciate all the support!

Love, Caitlin
