Young Life

Just as many other people that I know, I attend Young Life as often as possible. This is a friendly, Christian environment that I feel most high schoolers should experience at least once. On Monday nights we have Club. At 7:37 we meet somewhere, Parks and Rec is the current meeting spot, and play games and have fun then have a lesson where the leader preaches The Gospel for a little bit. After this we usually go to Cookout for milkshakes and to hang out. This to me is a good way to start the week because Mondays can be hard but Young Life has a way of making my mood better. 

On Wednesdays, we have Campaigners at 7:30 at someone’s house. It’s usually at the leaders house, currently that is Caroline and Crawford Keown’s house. This is where we do pretty much everything we do on Monday nights but the games are less intense and the lesson is a little longer. I personally like Wednesdays better because it’s a more chill environment and everyone hangs out when everything is done and talks. 

In the summer, there is a week long camp that you can go to and that is a really fun experience. I personally have not been yet but I am going this summer and from what everyone has said, it’s a fun and exciting week. There is also a fall weekend and I also have not been there, but I have heard it’s fun too. If you ask me, Young Life is a fun and social thing to do and hang out with friends.
