SUMMER 2019

You are the salt of the earth...

Matthew 5:13

Our purpose is to point students to God, and lead them into a changing relationship with Jesus and with others around them.

Our youth group name, The Saltshakers, comes from Matthew 5:13, where Jesus is talking to His disciples and He says, “you are the salt of the earth.”

At Saltshaker Youth Ministry we want to use every opportunity to be

Elijah laid on a desert floor ready to give

up. He had seen God do great things, but

those felt like distant memories. Where

was God when he was in danger? Where

was God when he needed Him most?

In the midst of those ques"ons, Elijah was

about to have a life-altering,

history-changing encounter with the

Creator of the Universe. He just had to

stand up and con"nue walking toward a

divine appointment with God.

Elijah was one of the greatest Kingdom

workers in all of Scripture, but he also

passed his faith along to other

Kingdom workers so that they, too, could

con"nue advancing the Kingdom.

This summer, CIY MIX will dive into the

life of Elijah and learn what it means to

con"nue standing up for God in a world

that denies Him; to con"nue pressing on

when all seems lost and to con"nue the

call from God that has been given to each

of His children since the dawn of "me.

Final payment is due Sunday, June 16th.

CIY MIX—June 24-28, 2019

CIY MOVE—July 1-6, 2019

This year, CIY MOVE will explore the life of

Elijah and help students understand that:

-You are called into the story of God.

-You can trust that God can provide

because He is real.

-When you despair, God will sustain

because He is here.

-You will find purpose when God sends

you to reach others.

-You will con"nue as God’s Spirit

empowers and His mission endures.

Your story,

Elijah’s story

God’s story…

They’re s"ll being wri5en…

Because they’re all To BE Con"nued.

Final payment is due Sunday, June 23rd.
