FALL WEEKEND IS HERE! This weekend, Nov. 16th-18th, Lorain County Young Life will be heading to Camp Fitch for Fall Weekend! This weekend will have over 330 high school students from around the North Coast Region! We will be taking just over 30 people from Lorain County to join in the fun and hear about the greatest news ever told. The bus will be leaving tonight from BJ's Wholesale in Avon at 8PM. Some students will also be coming separately after play-offs and other sports obligations. If your students want to come, it's not too late! Students are about to have the best weekend of their lives'! Sean Michael Murphy speaking on our first weekend. We want to thank Jack Gardner, an Avon Lake student who is on his way to being an Eagle Scout.

The rules are simple... run hard, get open, hit hard (unless you want to declare only two hand touch) and win! The year Tony Alexander's team and Alex Meyer's team squared off for the showdown of showdowns. Although the teams were random and not just Lorain County vs. Cleveland West, the play was real.

Our leaders play football just like they follow Jesus. They pursue, they tackle, they huddle, they are open and available, they catch, and most importantly, they stick around after the play. Kids around Cleveland know these characteristics to be true of their Young Life le...
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Students from all around NE Ohio at Fall Weekend at Camp Fitch during club We hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving and we wanted to share how thankful we are! There are so many things we are thankful for in Lorain County Young Life. We wanted to spotlight just what the Lord did at our annual fundraising Banquet and our Fall Weekend trip with high school students. Banquet Recap The 2018 Lorain County Banquet was a great success and it couldn't have happened without our great committee & sponsors. We had a room full of adults who care about young people being loved and told about the greatest news that can be told, Jesus Christ and His desire for us. We had an interest in joining our committee and our prayer team. Banquet attendees were able to meet our awesome leaders (Blog post about them coming soon!). While we still have work to do in raising our yearly budget, we were able to raise our financial go...
