Billy and Janet Sewell Hired as Co-Directors of Youth Ministry for St. Paul
As many of you are aware, St. Paul has been searching for a person to fill the role of Director of Youth Ministries for the last several months. We are pleased to announce that Billy and Janet Sewell have been hired to fill this role as Co-Directors! Billy and Janet have been serving as our Interim Youth Directors for the last nine months and have done an amazing job. Whether its leading regular youth events, retreats, “Gronk” nights, or special events, Billy and Janet provide fun, relational, and formational opportunities for the kids in a safe and supportive environment. They are very much loved by the youth and their families and have been an integral part of the youth ministry here at St. Paul for the last decade. We are excited to welcome them onto our staff and for the leadership, support, and consistency that they will continue to provide for our youth. Welcome Billy and Janet!2021 Youth Group

We are going back to our previous schedule which will be as follows:
5:00pm – Youth Choir
6:00pm – Dinner, provided by youth families.
6:30pm – Activity in the Gym / Parking Lot / Youth Center
7:00pm – Group Worship in the Youth Center. This will include a lesson as well as small group time.
Remember, this is subject to change per local, state, and church guidance and we appreciate everyone’s flexibility!
We would like to have 2 – 3 parents present every week for Youth Group. You will not be responsible for leading a small group discussion and don’t necessarily have to sit in on small group if you don’t want to. If you do want to sit in on small group we will make sure you are not in your student’s group. This is a great time for you to be involved in your student’s spiritual growth and development by seeing what they are learning and doing in Youth Group. Please use this Sign Up Genius link to sign up.
If you have not done so yet please fill out the Student Info Form as well as the Parent Info Form (this is a corrected link). Parents, there is also a paper photo release and general release form. We only need one of these per family. If you would like it electronically please let us know and we will email it to you. You will need to fill it out and scan/email it back to us please.

Youth Fusion Trip!
Mark your calendars, Fusion is a go for June 4th – 8th to the Atlanta/Perry, GA and Nashville areas! As of now we will meet at St. Paul Saturday morning and leave for Atlanta. We will spend all day Sunday and Monday in the Atlanta/Perry GA areas doing mission work and leading services at First UMC Perry. We will spend Tuesday and Wednesday working in Nashville and return to Louisville late Wednesday night.
If your student plans to attend Fusion please let us know via this link so we can give organizations a better idea of numbers as we are planning.
Like everything else, this is subject to change based on safety concerns and potential school calendar changes. We will keep everyone updated.
Summer Camp at Loucon!
St. Paul will again be paying half of campers’ regular tuition for Camp Loucon this summer. When you register your student you will pay the deposit then send the confirmation/receipt to youth@stpaulchurchky.org. This will allow us to contact Loucon directly to pay half for those students. You will then be responsible for half the cost of tuition minus the deposit that you already paid.
Recent Graduates!
For all of you recent (or recent-ish) high school graduates please fill out the College Student Info Form.
Also, if you would like to be removed from the email list and/or the Remind please let us know.

SUNDAY Mornings
Since the Youth are part of St. Paul Church as a whole, we are looking for more ways to be involved in Sunday morning services. We are looking for scripture readers for both the Koinonia (9am) and Traditional (11am) services. Please let us know if you are willing to do a reading at one or both services and which date. You can respond to this email or text the Remind or use this Signup Genius link to sign up. Thank you to those that have already read and/or signed up!
