05.22.22 Preaching Preview:
God uses all of us in amazing ways. We come to Jesus not by ourselves…it is a team effort! The Holy Spirit redirected Paul on his missionary journey, to a specific place at a specific time, to share the Good News with a specific person. God works out the same for us. God puts together a team, and the Holy Spirit works through that team to bring us to Jesus. Think about all those who were on your “team” as you came to believe in Jesus… We as the Church are that team! God is calling specific people in a specific place at a specific time to hear the Good News. Her name was Lydia… her name could also be…? Or, his name could be…? We are a team to reach out and bring someone to Jesus.

It’s true! “Many hands make light work.” But just think of the possibilities if we all followed that everyday… What if each one of us picked up just one piece of trash that wasn’t ours? What if each one of us smiled and said hello to a stranger each day? What if each one of us texted or called an elderly person just to let them know someone cares. What if each one of us donated a canned good once a week? What if each one of us texted/posted/tweeted something positive each day? What if each one of us said something nice about other people all day long? What if each one of us lived life as if our glass was half full? What if each one of us lived our life as if it were partly sunny?
Today, there are 7.9 Billion people on earth… What if all 7.9 billion accepted, loved and cared for each other for just one day? Many hands do make light work…but many people can change the world! Even if the other 7,899,999,998 people don’t do anything, at least you and I can give it a try!

Shareholders Fundraising - During the month of April, Students will be asked to work a table on Sunday morning during the 9:00 and 11:00 services. Students will be asked to work the table selling $10 shares for the youth ministry summer mission trip. Students that are attending the GA Mission trip will be required to sign up for a time slot to work.
July 30 Senior Seminar - I am inviting all of our graduating seniors and their friends to spend the day 10am-3pm at the Wesley Foundation on the Campus of SELU. It will be a time for students to ask questions about this transition into college. Teachers do a great job preparing students for the academic side of college, but what about the Spiritual and Social side of College? We will spend the day discussing college life through the lens of Spiritual life and Social life. You will be able to ask questions about this transition. Please contact Kaitlin Babington if you would like to participate at kaitlin.babington@gmail.com or (985)290-0226.
Sept 3-5 Encounter Retreat - We will be heading to Feliciana Retreat Center for labor day weekend: Saturday Morning-Monday Afternoon. We will be playing games, worshiping, discussing the core beliefs of the Christian faith, and having much needed free time. Registration form for the retreat is attached. forms.gle/XWGZ9PgUUQ8zDAE87 Retreat will cost $125 for any students desiring to participate.

This is a wonderful resource for parents and youth leaders. The idea is for us to help students establish a faith in Jesus Christ that will stick with them beyond youth ministry. Powell and Clark give excellent ideas of ways for parents to help students grow in their faith walk. |
