Our First Activity at the Center for Young Adults!


Friday, December 9, 2011 the Center for Young Adults had their first Activity!  We had 21 Young Adults attend!!!!  We had the Wii connected to a huge screen and Sister Krueger fixed Pasta al Forno and salad and cookies and cake and chips and lots of games!!!  We had so much fun and the room was rockin'!  We saw new faces and there was even one new investigator! The Activity went until midnight and there were no casualties!

Before our great activity we taught the Institute class, called Principles of Leadership and involved the Young Adults!  Our lesson was called "Charity in Leadership".  This was a GREAT lesson!  We asked one of the Young Adults to get up in front of the class and he had a sign on his chest that said "Leader".  He acted as though he had no charity....at first everyone was surprised and started looking around and then they began to understand and everyone understood that he was showing them how NOT to act.  Another young adult acted the part of a charitable leader by leading a discussion...... serving the groups cookies and drinks...... and helping them out in their individual assignments.


We are really enjoying getting to know all of the Young Adults!!!  They are so great!  We are very happy with our first activity!  Our schedule for the Young Adults is;  Monday through Thursday the Center is open from 3:30 to 8:30 p.m. and Friday 3:30 p.m. until 12:00 midnight.  We have food everyday in the Center!
