Hello,
Hope you all are having a fine day today. We have cause to celebrate. We had four people become followers of Christ last night!!! (Whoo-Hoo!!!) Heaven is rejoicing and Jesus is celebrating you today before God. We are so proud of you for making this decision. Maybe you're wondering, "What's next?" Well, first and foremost, you should begin to pray and read the Bible every day. This is how you can connect and grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ. Secondly, be in church every chance you get. This is where you can learn from other believers on what it means to truly follow Christ. Third, connect with other students that can encourage you along the road. If you don't have a Christian friend, then get one. They can also help you and keep you accountable when the temptations you face all the time come your way. If you need help finding one, let us know and we'll get you the hook-ups.
On another note, I want to welcome all the newbies that last night was your first night back with us at our youth gatherings this year. I believe there was about 18 of you who were either here for the first time ever or for the first time this year, so I want you to know, we're glad you're here. Keep coming back because we have some great things in store this year and you won't want to miss a single week. Don't forget to check out the youth website www.hwy62youth.com for upcoming events, downloads and maybe even find yourself in some pictures. New stuff get added all the time, so check back often.
Here's some stuff to remember:
