Had a great time at our youth groups last night. We launched our new Jr Hi group, X-Factor, at 5:30 and followed with the senior high group, 7, from 7-8:30 (which really went until 9 before we can get everything cleaned up and student cleared out). Had almost all of our junior highers there which was fun. I think we'll grow that group quickly as that age is usually great about inviting friends. Senior high bumped up against summer basketball but still had a great turnout, which was fun. New students again this week (and every week for the past month or so!) Plus some great new sponsors who have joined in to begin investing in these kids' lives.
Our theme for the evening was "Y Worship" and we talked about why and how we worship, wrapping up the night with a time of corporate worship together in song. All in all a great evening (if a bit long and somewhat exhausting!) Thanks to all who helped out and those who have been remembering us in prayer! God continues to do great things among these students.
