Youth Space Remodeling! The Humphrey Street Coffee House is coming together! The painting has taken place, and other updates and additions are happening, but it's not done yet. We have had several youth gatherings to work on other creative elements to be used in the Cafe and their artwork is now on display in the youth area. We are excited about everything that is happening, for this great partnership with Harvest Hands and how it will benefit the South Nashville Community and BUMC! We have started brewing Humphrey Street Coffee, and it is delicious!! Thanks for being patient and excited with us. Click here to read the letter that was emailed on May 12 to all youth and parents.

| Progressive Dinner - A Sunday Night in early December. All of our Grow Groups will start off together at BUMC and then head off to visit a home-centered member of our Church. With this event, students bring a gift to donate to the Graceworks Manger. They will then gather in a BUMC home for grade-level appetizers before heading off to a dinner with just their group. All students end up back at the Church for desert. It's a memorable night of fun with your friends, serving in the community, and lots and lots of food! |

Thrive Celebrations - At the end of the Fall and Spring Thrive semesters, we invite the whole family to come together for a potluck style meal. We then have a shortened Thrive with worship and teaching so parents can see and experience the same ministry that their students participate in and love.
