Great News

last week i had an unusual dilemna. I had a group of grade 8 boys disappointed that there was no youth program until they were in grade 9. This is unusual because boys in grade 8 aren't really thinking much about bible study.

This unnerved me a bit because I love jr high programs. They help build relationships and the spiritual foundation that kids need before they get in the competitive world of high school. In highschool kids compete for attention from friends, teachers, for marks, for spots on sports teams. Without a firm grip on their faith most kids fit in faith where ever there is room left over.

So when you have group of boys sad.....God's gotta do something. To answer my prayer i was approached sunday by someone who wants to help lead it. All we need is an occasional volunteer, the kids to buy in and we are off!!!!!

We hope in Nov. we will run Jr. High for grade 8's the same time as Ngage. (wed 7-9). We will run it 2x a month.

cool eh!
