November
is just a few months away and the time for us to come together at the annual
Winter Retreat. We are hoping that you
along with your youth groups are planning for this event.
The
event will be held on November 8-10, 2013 (Friday evening to Sunday). This is a Field event and we hope to see
representation from the Southwest Native American District, Western Latin District,
Southwest Latin District, and possibly other districts. It is hopeful that we can continue this event
to keep the connection on the Southwest Field (formerly known as Southwest
Region). It is going to take all of us
to do our part in bringing the youth to this event. The weekend will include services with
special speaker, testimonies, praise and worship, games, and a whole lot of
fun.
The registration
fee for this year is $100 which will include four meals and lodging. Enclosed is a copy of the flyer with a
perforated application which needs to be filled out and returned by October 25, 2013. Please take the time with your youth group to
finish the applications before the deadline.
Your cooperation in returning filled out applications will help with the
lodging and registration process. Please
make payment with one church check for your group payable to SNAD-NYI and sent to Myron Paddock at HC63Box 297, Winslow, AZ 86047
Everyone
will need to bring their sleeping bag, personal hygiene, Bible, medications,
and other personal items. Sponsors
on-site during the weekend are a MUST from each church.
Communications
is a must so I will be contacting each local NYI president or pastor to keep updated
on the numbers from your church. Do not hesitate to contact me at the above
phone number or email if you have questions. You may also contact Becky
Pohawpatchoko at 505-923-0984 or beckymorgan56@hotmail.com.

Dear
NYI presidents, Pastors, Students, Parents & church supporters:
As
the months continue forward since the District Assembly and Conventions, many
of our churches took the long journey eastward to Indianapolis, IN. I am proud
to say that your Southwest Native American District was well represented. I am
privilege to represent you as the newly elected SNAD NYI President; let me
first give all the praise and glory to our precious Lord!
Attending
the Global NYI Convention was something I will not forget. To briefly
enlighten, imagine a huge conference room with 6 huge projector screens, and a
sea of tables for the elected delegates. There were satellite connections to
Regional Sites: Africa, Eurasia, South America, Asia-Pacific, Mesoamerica so
our brothers and sisters in Christ could also participate in the Global NYI
Convention. There are two important affairs that I would like to emphasize:
1.
We
were part of the Southwest Region; now we are part of the Southwest Field.
2.
Charles
Brodhead was our Southwest Region President; now Pastor Gordon Wong, from the Hawaii District, is our newly elected Southwest Field President.
Be
shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them—not
because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not
pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over
those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 1 Peter 5:2-3 (NIV)
At the first District
NYI meeting, it was decided that each Zone NYI President to have the
responsibility to host this year’s Leadership Training. This will be closer for
each local church to travel and have more participation. We have a couple of ways
to keep the communication
flowing throughout our vast district, you can “like” us on Facebook (SNADNYI)
or you can log onto www.snadnyi.blogspot.com,
or you can contact your Zone NYI President.
As
I embrace this responsibility, I ask for your support and prayers. I am blessed
to have your willingness to serve a Mighty Savior and lead young people to
Christ. Let us work together as one body of Christ.
In
His Precious Name,
Becky
