HEIS SOMA
Being in junior high is an extremely unique time in your life because you are starting to think and make decisions on your own. The friends you choose, and the things you spend your time doing shape the kind of person you going to become whether realize it yet or not. Now you’re probably thinking, “Yeah whatever, I’ve heard that a thousand times before,” but the sooner you realize this, the less pain and confusion you will face in the years to come.

 I know you have extremely busy lives with school, family, friends, etc... and how you spend your time says the most about what your priorities in life are. I encourage you to make God your priority more than anything else. You can start to do this by changing the way you spend your time. For example, you can read your Bible before going on the internet or listening to music, or you can choose to go to church and serve others instead of hanging out with friends as much. God sees these things that you do for Him and he rewards us for doing them. But good works don’t do you or God any good if you don’t love him. What God really wants is your heart.

Lots o’ luv, Chelcea Cupples

COFFEE TALK
Parents: I would love to meet with you!  Time isn't something that most of us can spare, but sometimes there are things that are worth making time for. I believe that you are one of those things for me. Getting to know each other, talking about and praying for your kids, and sharing ideas about how we can walk closer with God and encourage our kids to do the same is a great use of my time (and hopefully yours).  If there is anything you would like to talk about to get to know me better, I am available. Tuesday through Friday afternoons are pretty much open for me, as are Sunday afternoons.  If you would like to meet please let me know.

HUME LAKE!
Hume Lake is back!  Last summer was an awesome experience for us as a Jr. High group, and we can't wait to experience what God has in store for us this year. Camp this year will be from July 27th to August 2nd. We have changed our dates to try to accommodate sports and band schedule within the Poway School system.

We are starting our fundraisers early this year and hope to bring down the cost of camp to $300 per student!

FUNDRAISER!!
Our major fundraiser for Hume Lake this year was a Youth Auction. We auctioning out skills and labor that our kids and others in the church could offer, along with items donated by different companies. If you weren't able to come but wanted to support the youth, we have set up a site where you can make a donation if you would like - http://www.rbbaptist.org/youthfundraiser.htm.

Chelcea Cupples, Youth Intern

Whether it’s surfing, guitar, or raising her bowling score, Chelcea is always willing to try new things as long as it’s an excuse to have fun with friends. She has already served and worked at C28 for three years.  Now, as she continues her ministry at C28 and starts her ministry with the Jr. High, she is excited to share all that God has taught her and help students begin training for the purpose of godliness, and continue for the rest of their lives.

Chelcea has lived with her parents in San Diego for 11 years and has been blessed with being raised in the church. She has two younger sisters, Mae Leah and Kiana.  Though she will not be the one to tell you, she is one of the kindest, most caring person you will ever meet. The love she shows stems from the love she has received by her creator.
