Teen Service

Last night we had a unique blessing in our church, the entire youth group ran the whole evening service!  From preaching to song directing and special music.  What a blessing to see the younger generation step up and show Christ in their actions!  Swallowing their fear and taking the step of faith in furthering Christ's plan for our generation is not easy, yet each and every participant made that step out of their comfort zone and made the effort to serve God with their talents.

I love the teens in our church, each one has a special place in my heart.  The sweet spirit God has blessed our church with is so refreshing!  I pray that as this generation continues to mature and reach out for Christ that their example will continue to impact the people they are around just as richly as they did last night!

"The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.,
the world, and all who live in it;
for he founded it upon the seas
and established it upon the waters.
Who may ascend the hill of the Lord?
Who may stand in his holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not lift up his soul to an idol
or swear by what is false.
He will receive blessing from the Lord
and vindication from God his Savior.
Such is the generation of those who seek him,
who seek your face, O God of Jacob."
Psalm 24:1-6

  1. What a great blessing for the teens to be able to do! We have the opportunity at our church for the teen class to take care of the song service each week... It is so great to serve the Lord!

  2. By "Song Service", do you mean leading the hymns during the service? Or do you do something different?

    Our group is trying to stretch and get out of our comfort zones, and hearing what other teen groups do really encourages us!:)
