The first annual Bear Believers back to school rally will be held Sept. 18 at 6 p.m. in the band hall. 

“The purpose of the rally is to unite Christians in different youth groups and to make Bear Believers known throughout the school,” president Chrisleigh Longlois said. 

To increase membership the club is working with local youth ministers, bringing in guest speakers, notifying students  into the announcements and hosting more events. 

“Our other plans include See You at the Pole, maybe something for Christmas, and we are trying to put something together called Rez (resurrection) Week for the week of Easter,” Longlois said. 

Bear Believers are planning to meet every Tuesday morning at 7:30 a.m. in the lecture hall.
