Uh? Uncouth Group? Wha..?
Who are the Uncouth?
Anyone who comes to an Uncouth event! The Uncouth is teenagers and adults who have insane amounts of fun and do crazy and creative stuff together...life is an adventure and we're supposed to be living it! Most of us live around Hawthorn, Richmond, Kew, but some come from much further away!
Who's responsible for this lot? Find out about the Uncouth leaders.
What happens at Uncouth?
On alternating Fridays (Uncouth/Big nights) all the Uncouthers get together and do fun stuff. Sometimes we go out to do things (eg swimming, camping, rock climbing, ice skating, commando raids...?) and sometimes we stay local and play games, hang out, and do crazy stuff. (like mess nights, glow-in-the-dark nights, basketball matches, movie nights, battle of the sexes...!)
During the week the fun gets a little more serious, we have fun and hang out together in 'pods': looking after each other, figuring out the Jesus thing, helping others, and having fun! It's up to each group what they do and when and where they meet, so if you are interested in joining one, let Mike know and we'll figure out the best one for you.
We also run occasional weekend events like camping trips and the 40 Hour Famine which are always awesome!
Who can come?
Year 6 to Year 12 students will love Uncouth events! (If you are in grade 5 or younger you can come to Friday Uncouth nights but you must bring a parent with you!)
The people running Uncouth Group are Christians and so are many of the people who come, but not everyone is. You are welcome to come and just have fun with a great bunch of people, or get into the deeper stuff no matter what you believe, in fact it's great having a good mix. Even amongst the Christians there are people from several different churches!
We care about the community of young people in our local area and schools and want to make it a great community! We're looking for people who can be a part of that.
We reckon Jesus has a lot to teach us about how we live and who we are...he didn't just tell us to 'sit and listen' but also to 'go and do'...
'k, so why call it "Uncouth"? You'll just have to come and find out :) It's a fairly accurate description...
I don't want to miss a thing!
