 New Youth Series: How to Study the Bible
 This Sunday we started a new series called, How To Study The Bible, based on my (Tim's) Bible college and seminary notes. The more I put the series together, the more excited I am to go through it with you guys. The Word will come alive like never before because you'll experience first-hand what it's like to know how to dig into God's Word for yourself. It's not too late to jump into the study with us!
In case you're interested, I purchased copies of the Bible study methods book I used in both Bible college and seminary, an excellent resource that's fun to read and easy to understand. I'll be basing most of our study on this book. Each copy retails for $19, I paid $13, but it's yours for $5 if you want one. I have four copies left.
Ending The Journey with a Party on May 7!
 The last official night of The Journey is April 30. However, we're going to end The Journey for this year with a photo scavenger hunt the Wednesday after that, May 7th. Each small group will pile into their leader's car and drives around town with a digital camera to take pictures from a pre-determined list (for example, "Take a picture at Wal-Mart with at least 3 employees -- 100 points"). After an hour, we'll meet at church again, tally up the points and watch a slideshow of everyone's pictures in the Ministry Center while eating some snacks. Arrive at church a little earlier than normal because you'll be leaving with your small group leaders right at 6:30 PM!

Just thought I'd leave you all with a funny parody of a eHarmony.com commercial, done by The Skit Guys. (If no video displays below, use this link to go directly to the video at AlexandriaYouth.com.)
