Friday
6:00 Registration Opens (Doors Open at 6:30 pm)
Registration happens in the lobby as you come into the family life center. Thanks for your patience as we get everyone in and ready!
7:00 Worship
Doors open at 6:30 pm. Be sure your students fill out their Iggy Note Envelope and sign up for the drawing at the Harvest Tent. Feel free to model worship for your students. Encourage them to sing and engage. Smile. Participate.
8:30 Refreshments
We're trying to make this sort of like a cafe - actually talking with someone to "order" your drinks and snacks. Not sure how it will turn out, but use this time slot to visit with your kids, ask questions and just love them. Hopefully they don't get too much sugar. Nathan Peel will be playing guitar in the "coffee house room" if your students want to check that out.
9:00 Ignition Blast
Brian Caringer will be here with us during Ignition Blast on Friday night. He is a blast.
9:50 Have a good night!
Here are some debriefing questions you may want to use as you are traveling back to sleep: 1) What did you like best? 2) What did you learn today? 3) Where did you see God today?
Saturday
8:45 Doors Open
We don't have breakfast during Ignition, but there will be a snack about 10:30. Be sure to get something before you arrive. Have your students pick out their seminar labels before they come into worship.
9:00 Worship
In case your students wonder, here are the names of the Harvest Band (from left to right) : Emily Lynn (vocals); Clint Benesh (electric guitar); Drew Allsman (drums), Daniel Tatenjorst (bass); and Tim Price (guitar and vocals).
10:45 Seminar I
Students choose one two out of three seminars for the two elective time slots on Saturday morning.
WOULD YOU RATHER (Rev. Kurt Stone)
This seminar will give students and opportunity to have conversations about dilemmas they may be facing. We will take a look at God’s word for those tough decisions. (Sanctuary)
FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT (Rev. Kurt Stone)
Join Jennifer Hodgerson and Ethan Klaffer as they lead this seminar on the Fruit of the Spirit. It’s the attributes in our lives that come from God’s spirit filling us – and it make life so much better! (Upper Family Life Center)
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT FRIENDSHIP (Lee Harrison)
It’s been said that you are the sum of your five closest friends. It’s important to choose good friends and to be a good friend. Middle School is a great time to start practicing godly friendships. What does the Bible say? (Fellowship Hall)

YOUTH WORKER SEMINAR (Duffy Robbins)
All youth workers are invited to join Duffy Robbins in the Choir Rehearsal Room (Upstairs, down the hall from the Sanctuary) for a session and network time specifically geared toward leaders. We will have coffee. This seminar only happens one time, but typically goes until close to lunch).
11:25 Seminar II
See above.
12:05 Lunch (ignition nutrition)
The plan is to have Little Ceasars, chips, fruit, drinks and dessert.
1:00 Skating
After lunch, head over to Great Skate. Each group is responsible for their own transportation. Great Skate is located one block from the church (284 Riggin Rd, Troy, IL 62294). Just turn right out of the church parking lot and then left at the first stop light and you are there. Skating is included in the Ignition Registration, but if you don't want to skate, don't take a ticket as you pass by the window.
2:45 Closing Worship
Can't believe Ignition is almost over! If you have any thoughts, suggestions or comments about Ignition, please talk with Tim Price or email (tim@harvestministryteams.com). Thanks!
