Friday Night Games!






We have added a new and fun addition at Selah Youth. For the past few months, we have been getting together over at our home in Yucca every month and having Game Night. This started out to be a time to get out of our comfort zone and get to know each other with food and a movie, so it used to be called Movie NIght, but we found that the simple game we were playing were much more fun, exciting, and uniting.

Here are some pics from the last Friday Night Games. We had a lot of fun and it brought some of the new members to the Selah Youth family together with the older crew members.

More Pics from 2009






The last pics were from retreats, youth nights, concerts, and the Baccalaureate (for we had a lot of seniors for our small group). These next set of pics are from our summer study called '13 Letters' , game nights, and Taylor's Eagle Scout ceremony.

Year in Review 2009






I know I always say it, but I am blown away on how fast time flies. We have made it to the two year mark for Selah Youth 29 Palms. It has been a blast doing ministry on the base and always meeting new people.

This last year has been fun but sad at the same time. We have been up the mountains, heard great music, and just having fun fellowship at the home. It was sad this year to say bye to quite a few of our friends leave to other bases throughout the country. The cool thing about that is we now have friends spread throughout the U.S.A.

I thought I would put up some pics of things we did throughout this year, enjoy!!

New Teaching Series


We are in a transitional stage right now with lots of kids who have moved and now it's that time again to get the word out to the new families that have moved on the base about Selah Youth.

We have new graphics to display all over

We are also starting a new teaching series dealing with the basic essentials of Christianity and our understanding of who God is.

Really soon, Chris will be showing up at the 29 palms high school campus to do a study called 'vintage Jesus'

Please pray for all the new that is happening

I AM


I AM...the bread of life, the light of the world, the door, the good shepherd, the resurrection and the life, the way, truth, and the life, and the true vine is what we studied up in Big Bear June 15-17. It was a lot of fun and very personal, our group grew a lot together and with the Lord. It is a must to do again in the Fall as we will focus on the creator God and thank him for his many wonderful works that are hard to keep count.

Now we must do a survey os Paul's letters with a study called 13 Letters.

Where Have We Been?


Man, I haven't updated anything in awhile, but he we are into summer and just finished graduations. Time flies like usual and it is a wonderful thing to see some of these teens grow up to be mature adults and watch how the Potter fashions their lives.

This last month in May we took some 29 kids to Spirit West Coast, that was pretty fun and challenging for me, because I got to preach a sermon the next morning knowing I was going to get 4 hours of sleep, praise God for his strength.

This month we are trying to spend as much time with some of the kids we have had the privilege to know this last year because they are moving soon and some of the kids are heading off to a month long vacation, so June is packed full of stuff; with a little retreat in Big Bear, Knotts, and 13 letters study with pool time. We are still working on July, but I will be back to talk about that, hopefully!!
