The "X" is the Youth Group of the Burtt's Corner Church of Christ. Our Middle School Group meets from 6:30 to 8:00 and our High School group meets from 8:00 to 9:30. Don't know what is going on? You will find it here!
Hey Everyone, I know that there are many of you that I will not see until the new year so I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. Christmas is a wonderful time of the year but I know that it isn't all jingle bells and holly for everyone. I understand that, it isn't for me either and I will be praying for all of you. Nonetheless, I hope each of you have an awesome Christmas with your families reminiscing of good times and enjoying being together.
If you want, you can use this post to wish others in the group Christmas wishes over the break. It would be a neat way for us to all stay connected even when we don't see each other.
Even though I know that all of you took your newsletters home and put them up on your fridge like you do every week and the ones I pick up off the floor every week don't belong to you, I thought I would still post some info so you don't need to stress the day of.
High Schoolers, This Friday December 15 - Your Christmas party is from 7:00pm until 9:00pm. It is at Dan and Janelle's place. Directions: Drive past the Brookside Mall on Brookside Dr. and then past Reynolds St on the left. TURN LEFT on Terrence St. Drive past Harly Close and Walter Close on your right and TURN RIGHT on Ferguson Close. Dan and Janelle live at 35 Ferguson Close on the LEFT.
If somehow you get lost, pull into the Brookside mall and call me. Don't forget your secret Santa gift, especially if you got Dan's name.
Middle Schoolers, Monday December 18 - Your Christmas party is from 6:30 until 8:30. It is at the church. If you need directions, I can't help you because I don't know where it is either! Don't forget your secret Santa gift, especially if you have Dan's name.

Top 10 Things To Say about a Christmas Gift You Don't Like
10. Hey! There's a gift!
9. Well, well, well ...
8. Boy, if I had not recently shot up 4 sizes that would've fit.
7. This is perfect for wearing around the basement.
6. Gosh. I hope this never catches fire! It is fire season though. There are lots of unexplained fires.
5. If the dog buries it, I'll be furious!
4. I love it -- but I fear the jealousy it will inspire.
3. Sadly, tomorrow I enter the Federal Witness Protection Program.
2. To think -- I got this the year I vowed to give all my gifts to charity.
And the Number One Thing to say about a Christmas gift you don't like:
Tonight we are drawing names for secret Santa so make sure you are here OR if you can't make it email me or comment and I will get you a name and make sure someone gets yours!!!!
This time it isn't as easy as the first person to comment! No no no. This one will take a little more work. On DECEMBER 4TH whoever can bring me the most "X" newsletters (the all have to be different if you are thinking about snagging a bunch next youth group) will win a prize and whoever can bring me the Oldest newsletter. Start looking.
Hey everyone this is just a reminder that this coming Monday will be a combined youth group starting at 7 and ending at 9. We will be filling operation Christmas child boxes so PLEASE make an effort to bring some stuff in. I would also appreciate it if everyone could bring one or two dollars to put with the boxes as shipping costs need to be covered.
Also, for high schoolers Sunday Night Live is at Grace Memorial I think. So meet at the church at the time we usually meet because I don't know/forget what time that is... if you do then comment!
Alright guys, here is the deal! Katelyn and Chelsey, Cathy is picking you up. LHHS and FHS students, you will be picked up at on you lunch hour so you either need to pack a lunch or be prepared to buy one. You will all need to be prepared to buy you own supper Friday night before the conference begins. We should get back to the church on Sunday around 4:00 PM. Any questions?
I was thinking, over thinking Cause there's just many scenarios To analyze, look in my eyes Cause your my dream please come true I was thinking, over thinking About exactly how I'm not exactly him I'll break my heart in two More times than you could ever do Cause your my dream please come true
Cause I think way too much On a one track mind And your so out of touch Cause I'm so far behind
[Chorus] I can't deny this any more The facts ignored all done before And if there's one in this world You let me know you're not that girl
I was sinking, lower sinking Cause I lost the things I held on to They let me think a thought A thought that I would know was not Of seeing my dream come true I was thinking, over thinking About how far I had let this go One more guy/girl cliche I know now you're just in the way Of me and my dream come true
Cause I think way too much On a one track mind And your so out of touch Cause I'm so far behind I'm trying to make sense Out of all of this While your fading scent Just slips through my grip
[Chorus]
Don't touch the positive with a negative end Don't touch the positive with a negative end Cause after all of the sparks you're left alone in the dark Cause after all of the sparks you're left alone in the dark And while I'm able I think I'll label Experience with you as a mistake And while I'm at it, I'll say I've had it Experience with you as a mistake
Cause I think way too much On a one track mind And your so out of touch Cause I'm so far behind
I'm trying to make sense Out of all of this While your fading scent Just slips through my grip
I was thinking, over thinking Cause there's just too many scenarios To think about, to figure out If you're my dream please come true
Ok guys here is the deal, If you are going to Exalt then I NEED to know like today. You have to get me a form and money. The absolute deadline is Friday but I am faxing what I have today. This is your last chance! So get that stuff to me like pronto! If you need a form download one here.
