Continuing With More Good News About the Good Guys

Posted on 08:48 by Unknown
To keep up with the theme of good news about good guys, I want to share a bit about our group of youth at Hopedale.

Yesterday was Youth Sunday at Hopedale and our kids taught in several of the Sunday school classes, greeted people as they entered the sanctuary for service, led worship in the Neos Service, read scripture, received the offering, played an instrumental special for the offering time and a very challenging message was delivered by our Youth Pastor.

I know that I'm an extremely biased person when it comes to my church family, but I'm just going to tell you that it was a great service and a great Sunday. Our little youth group continues to grow and many of the kids are really serious about growing in their relationship with God through His son, Jesus. We have a great group of adults that give of their time to teach on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights and help with the tech stuff. It's an honor to serve with them. I am looking forward to seeing the work that God will do through these young men and women as they continue to follow Him.

Like many stories of good kids and good people, this one won't make the evening news. Most people might say that it isn't even news worthy. Maybe that's true. But it is a good story and one that ought to be told.

...so I'm telling it here!

Great job Hopedale!
