The youth of our church just finished their annual "Focus" weekend. This is a time of intense discipleship and Bible study. Congratulations go out to Craig Yates and Kris Raven for their hard work in organizing the event. We were one of the host homes, and held the record for the most youth in one house. We had 17 middle school girls in our home for two nights! I have to admit that for a time on Saturday I "escaped" to Austin, but Leslie was there to keep things under control. Jamie Lowry was very brave to lead all those girls in Bible study, and she did a great job!
On Sunday morning, Gary Henderson, who hosted some of the high school girls, shared a wonderful testimony of how the students went over to the new church property and worked hard to clear what he called "old world growth" - cedar trees, etc. This "growth" was impeding progress on building the church parking lot. Anyway, I think what he said went a long way in encouraging our church members about our students, who are the future of our church and community.
