First Youth Night! September 28

Well well well. Last friday was our first Sr. high youth and to kick off our youth events and we went to a concert at a church in Nanaimo. The band that was playing played songs ranging from Hillsong to Chris Tomlin. The vibe and power this band expressed from the stage was unwavering from the beginning to the end. It was an experience like no other to connect with our youth on such an intimate level on our first night. It was as if the barriers fell right away and conversations opened up on the van ride there and back and we were able to stand together and worship the Lord. I have gotten to know some of the youth on a one to one basis, learning names is a working process but learning their hobbies, music they like and what school subjects they enjoy was on the menu of what i wanted to learn from them. The message at the service was the salvation message and it is amazing every time i see people accept Christ and the support they get from their friends as they walk back to their seats. Next week we are going to have a Rock Band party where we are required to dress up as a rock and roll band. I am very excited for the church that i have picked and the youth that are there i have a great feeling that Jesus is going to work in the lives of the children and the lives of myself once again thank you for following along!
