April Update from Macomb
Wow! This year has just flown by! Here are some fun facts to know about this year: Although our numbers for pizza lunch have decreased since the start of the school year (in part, due to weather & temperatures), the number of students we serve outside pizza lunch has more than tripled! We now offer daily student-initiated prayer in school, programs for Junior and Senior High students, as well as life coaching! We continue to meet immediate needs of students, tutoring to aid in the PSAE/ACT testing the end of the month.
YFC Macomb has an active student leadership team that serves to voice their hopes and desires for YFC - as well as serve and lead the students of YFC. This team met and formulated the programs and activities for summer and the upcoming school year. Congratulations to Justin Derry, the incoming YFC Student President (Becky Scott has graduated).
Your Spring Cleaning can help YFC Students: All throughout the first week of May, we will be collecting items for our yard sale, which will be held Friday, May 6 from 4-8pm and Saturday, May 7 from 8-noon. Assisted drop off times are as follows: Sat April 30th 9-noon; Mon May 2nd 6-9pm; Tues May 3rd 3-5pm, Thurs 3-5pm, Fri 8-10am Otherwise, items may be left in the garage.
For those of you that are yard salers - some things on our wish list include: games for Play Station 2 (PS2); picnic tables, lawn furniture or lawn games, a portable basketball net and sheets of plywood (to paint onto).
Anyone interested in helping with YFC Project/Paint Day is invited to bring tools to paint and/or clean on Saturday, April 23rd from 8-noon.
