Youth Families,
This week, we continue both our Wednesday and Sunday Bible Study series. On Wednesday, our discussion will be about God’s presence in our struggles. In those times, He is with us, guiding, strengthening and supporting us, which creates new opportunities and perspectives for us to witness and share His love in the future. On Sunday, our discussion will be about how Jesus went out of His way for others during His ministry. Many times, the people He went out of His way for are people we may actively avoid. He calls us to drop our negative attitudes and assumptions toward many others and humbly serve them out of love.
I was hoping to spend our next few Wednesday nights outside. At this time, it looks like this Wednesday’s weather is not favorable, but we will meet outside for the remaining Wednesdays of the education season if the weather permits, otherwise we will meet in the youth room.
