Youth Group News

5th-8th-grade Youth Group
Fast. It's how our culture likes to do things. Unfortunately, the desire for instant results that gives us lasting unintentioned issues. The truth is, while fast is awesome, there are some things in life that just take time. Maybe that's why the Bible keeps mentioning this idea of sowing and reaping, or planting and waiting for something to grow. Because while our temptation will always be to look for a shortcut or to focus our attention somewhere that will give us faster results, we run the risk of missing out on some of the best things in life when we don't work on them over time.
5:30-7:00pm down in the Youth Room and ending in the Gym.
