LOGOS to restart Jan. 17

Are you ready? LOGOS, a nondenominational, community centered Wednesday evening youth event is about to restart for 2024!

With the theme, “Parables of Jesus”, students, their families, community and staff will have a chance to apply Jesus’ parable lessons to their lives, helping them become more Christ-like.

The 2023-24 Second Semester LOGOS restart will be on Wed., Jan. 10 at First Presbyterian Church in Moorcroft (100 S. Belle Fourche Ave). Immediately after school, LOGOS volunteers will meet elementary age students near the north entrance at Moorcroft K-6 School, and then escort them to the church.

The evening will be complete with physical activity, snacks, worship, Bible study and supper. Registration for those who are new will be from 4-7 p.m. on Jan. 17 with an informational session at 6:15 p.m. during supper.

Parents and guardians are required to complete registration forms and medical releases for all students attending LOGOS. The 10th will provide an opportunity to complete forms, as well as to learn more about the LOGOS program, meet the volunteer staff and join in fellowship with the LOGOS community. Registration forms may also be gotten at the church on Sunday morning or Wednesdays from 1-3 p.m.

Aptly described as “Christ-Centered Fun”, LOGOS is for the entire family and is supported by several congregations in the area. Elementary age students, including homeschoolers (and pre-school students, if accompanied by an adult) are invited to participate in recreation, worship, Bible study and supper each Wednesday between 3:55 p.m. and 6:45 p.m., while similar junior and senior high activities will begin at 6:45 p.m. and conclude at 8:30 p.m.

Included in the regular LOGOS activities is a family-style meal served at 6:15 p.m. The community is invited to attend any and all elements of the LOGOS evening, and we especially encourage you to enjoy supper with the children and the rest of the LOGOS family.

Please know there are tuition fees that help to sustain the many components of the LOGOS program. Tuition is $40 per semester for the first family member, $30 per semester for the second family member, and $20 per semester for each addition family member – not to exceed $110 per family per semester.

However, no child will be denied enrollment in the LOGOS program. Scholarships are available and will be arranged in case of need. Payment plans can be arranged as well. All financial arrangements will be kept confidential.

LOGOS staff is also excited to announce, that they will once again be hosting the Annual LOGOS Winter Outing on Feb. 21. We will be going roller skating at the Iron Horse Skateway. This is a great way to begin the fun of a New Year at LOGOS. And is the perfect time to celebrate all that God has done in our community and will continue to do!

As always, the LOGOS program is a great place to use your God-given talents and gifts. Volunteers are still needed in the kitchen (cooking teams, dessert teams and bread teams), as table parents and as teacher or activity director.

Additionally, monetary donations are always welcome and used as scholarships for students and/or families who are unable to meet tuition needs. If you have questions about the LOGOS program or are able to fill needs within the program, call or text Pastor Monte at 217-251-1182 or 756-3554 and leave a message or email: [email protected]. Hope to see you there!
