This past Sunday was Youth Sunday, and your kids spoke. Did you listen to them? Because they were speaking to us.
It was awesome to see all of you who joined us for the Youth Parent Meeting and our Volunteer Orientation!
This past Sunday, I gave my last talk from the Justin stage. I found myself wondering what mattered most to say, of all of the hours spent giving instructions and leading prayers and worship from that stage – what really mattered?
As the great Harry Styles once said, “You know it’s not the same as it was.”
I am beyond excited to move into a full-time role within youth ministries! This is a ministry that asks you to bring your whole self to everyone who is a part of it and that is something I see as a real blessing.
One of our graduating seniors asked me earlier this year why I’m in youth ministry. There are a lot of answers to that question, and any of them could be the reason and all of them are very much a part of the truth.
Our class of 2022 entered our Youth Ministries program the same time I did, and I have been here for their entire youth ministries tenure. So it seems only appropriate that I graduate with them as well.
When Carol Harrell approached the Youth Ministries staff about starting a new scholarship in honor of Ernst H. Harrell, she had an unconventional attitude towards how it would be awarded.
Revolution Weekend 2022 included 41 kids, 8 adult leaders, three staff, an incredible guest speaker, ridiculously big games, meaningful conversations in small groups, impactful worship together, a return to beloved traditions, and way more little moments of beauty and connection and love than I can remember.
Lent is a season where faith is planted, where hope is buried like a seed.
