THE NEXT HIGH SCHOOL OASIS GATHERING will be next Sunday, October 12 from 6:30-8:00pm at St. Matthew's; if the weather cooperates, we'll be at the outdoor fire pit.  All 9th-12th graders are welcome to come and relax, chill out, and decompress from the stresses of school, activities, and other pressures of life.  No heavy discussions or deep Bible studies; just a chance to breathe.  Advance sign-up isn't required, either; just show up.  As with most of our youth events, friends are welcome!
HELP WITH RISE AGAINST HUNGER!  On Sunday, October 19, we would like to have our 6th-12th grade youth show up in force for the 1:00pm-3:00pm shift at St. Matthew's!  Bring your family and friends along too, if you can.  If you show up in the downstairs lounge at 12:15pm, there will be pizza and beverages available before our shift begins.  Even if you can't do the 1:00pm time slot, you still have opportunities to serve from 11:00am-1:00pm, or 3:00pm-5:00pm. Sign up here to participate: Oct. 19th Rise Against Hunger.
