Hey Alpha Weekers!
We hope you had a great summer and are looking forward to another school year. Starting school can be an exciting but challenging chapter, so we wanted to give you a taste of Teen Week to give you a burst of peace and confidence.
We’ve gathered some resources to encourage you as school starts:
Listen to a playlist of Teen Week songs!
Watch a video memory capsule of Teen Week!
Check out the photos from Alpha Week!
Travis has some words of encouragement for you:
A prayer for you, written by counselor Kristin Hardy:
Lord –
Thank you for Camp Arcadia – what joy it brings to our hearts thinking back to teen weeks and what a blessing that time was. Thank you for the laughter, the great food, the groups we were in, the opportunity for fellowship and fun and for getting to grow deeper in our relationship with you.
Lord – help us to be mindful of those things that we heard in Bible Study, in small group, and in conversations as we face the daily challenges of the world around us. We know that because of you, Jesus, and what you did for us on the cross that we are FREED to live a life knowing that we will be with you one day in heaven. Help us cling to that truth on the days that are hard and bring peace to our hearts.
We know, Lord, that you are good – and that all that you created is good. Remind us daily that you have created each of us to live out that goodness in our own ways – so that others may come to know you and of your goodness.
We love you Lord
Amen
Good luck at school and see you next summer!
