Youth Group New Year’s Eve Lock-In

“Lock-in” means you can’t leave. You have to stay all night. And mostly (although some youth doze) stay awake all night. To a teenager, this sounds like fun. And it is!

Especially on the night of December 31, 2007 and the morning of January 1, 2008.

It’s about wholesome fun with fellow Christian teens . . . for the whole night (more or less).
There are video games . . .
. . . and some improvisational drama.
A nice sedate card game . . .
. . . ends up with everybody drawing a card that requires them to act silly. And of course there has to be a relay race (below).
The tone turns more serious during the devotional . . .
. . . as the youth earnestly discuss their future plans . . .
. . . and how those plans fit into God’s plans for them.
