All of our events occur to make more and better disciples by fertilizing our unity, maturity, and joy.
May 14 – Youth Sunday, Why?
On May 14, 2017, our youth will lead us to worship God and make Jesus famous.
Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and generally rocked off your feet, spiritually speaking that is.
Why do we hand over worship?
Well it was theirs to start with. Our Youth are not the future of the Church; they are the Church. We design worship with them in mind, just as we design it with adults and new comers, so every now and then it’s fun to see what they come up with for our time together.
Moreover, you never discover spiritual gifts if you never get a chance to use them. Pastor Andrew preached for the first time on Youth Sunday 2003 to a church of more than 500 people, and discovered his passion for teaching and gift for communicating God’s Word. How many of our young members have similar gifts for preaching, singing, encouraging, serving, leading worship, or playing music and just don’t yet know it? Pastor Andrew wouldn't be here if someone hadn't asked him to try preaching over a decade ago. Youth Sunday could be the day, God calls one of our members into a life of service or it could be the day God uses our young to stir faith in the cold heart of a pre-Christian neighbor.
