What do envelopes, tacos, Mahjong, Pickleball, and teenagers leading in worship have in common? Youth Ministry Fundraising Week!
This is more than our largest fundraiser of the year. It is a week where laughter and fun fill the AYMC, generations compete in friendly competition, tacos turn into youth ministry support and our youth step confidently into worship leadership. It is a week when our church family shows up. When you participate, you provide retreats, mission experiences and discipleship opportunities! Even more importantly, you’re sending a clear message to our youth and their families: You matter here.
We saw it during the Adults vs. Youth Games yesterday when our youth challenged adults in 9-Square, Pickleball and so many other games! You’ll feel it when envelopes begin disappearing from the $1–$200 board in the Narthex. You’ll taste it during dinner on Wednesday at our White Duck Taco Profit Share. You will experience it on Youth Sunday, when our youth lead in every aspect of worship with courage and authenticity.
All events are open to the church and the broader community! Learn more about Fundraising Week: https://firstbaptistgreenville.com/youthministryweek/
$1–$200 Envelope Fundraiser
We kicked things off on Sunday, February 15, with our $1–$200 Envelope Fundraiser. Two bulletin boards in the Narthex are filled with envelopes numbered $1–$200. We hope everyone will choose an envelope, place the matching dollar amount inside, and return it by Sunday, March 1 (Youth Sunday). Envelopes are available Monday–Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm. Cash and checks are welcome, and you’re welcome to grab more than one envelope! You can also donate any amount online! https://onrealm.org/firstbaptistgreenville/-/form/give/youth
