Youth in Mission
Read: 1 Timothy 4:12
For over twenty plus years Jack and I were fortunate to spend winters in Florida. We attended a church in St. Petersburg Beach. They had a junior and senior youth group, led by the same person, both very large and active.
Every year they went to a different city to do charity work. This year about 35-40 senior youth are going to Paris, Florida for a week.
One Sunday in the spring before they leave for their trip they are in charge of a Sunday worship service. It is always an enlightening service, and has some beautiful singing.
Our own youth group here is not as large by number, but every year (except in the pandemic) they go to Kentucky to help some less-fortunate families. Our youth are always so cheerful and excited to share their experiences with us.
Let us pray our trip this year will be able to go. And also a big thanks to the adults who have given up vacation time to chaperon their trip.

Come here each day in Lent to share in the devotional writings of members of Grosse Pointe United Methodist Church in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. We pray God will bless you as we journey through Lent toward the celebration of the Glorious Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ on Easter (and every) Sunday.
