Next Youth Group on October 8, 6-7:30 PM
o Our first youth group was a ton of fun—and we had about 25 people present! Thank you for all of you who attended!
o These were previously called “Youth gathering pre-meeting” but these are for everyone in grades 6-12 (and curious parents) regardless if you are signed up for the youth gathering or not
Corn Maze on Sunday, October 22
o We will leave after Cross+Training and ACTS (after 9:30 service) and plan to be home by 1:30 PM.

o Sign up here: https://atonementmuskego.breezechms.com/form/cornmaze2023
Serve at Second Harvest Foodbank on November 22 (day before Thanksgiving)
o If interested, please fill out this interest form to help us gauge both interest and best time of day for event (afternoon or evening)
Milwaukee Admirals Game on Saturday, December 2 at 6 PM
o If interested, please fill out this interest form to help us get a sense of numbers (this is not yet the official signup/commitment form)
On the more church-y side of things, here’s a few dates to hold:
October 29—Confirmation Sunday.
We will confirm a dozen students during the 9:30 AM service. Cross+Training and ACTS students will attend worship to participate in confirmation festivities.
November 12—First Communion Sunday. A number of students in our church will receive first communion. While the class is usually for fifth graders, if you haven’t received your first communion and are interested in doing so, please let me know.
Join us for a morning/afternoon of fall fun! We are going to Borzynksi’s for a corn maze, hayride, and to make our own caramel apple.
Parents welcome to come as drivers/chaperones.
ELCA Youth Gathering
Our Youth Ministry’s Summer high school trip is going to the our denomination’s nationwide youth gathering in New Orleans.
