Please do not attemp to say this word quickly if you don't want a major cramp in your tongue! This word describes what we might call a Rally. In this case it is a Youth Rally. We have these get-togethers four times a year, once in each of our churchs here in Sorocaba. This time it was our turn to host the Confra. The teens descided on a Tropical theme. There was a lot of fruit to go around and a fun time of skits and games. We had special numbers from each of the teen groups and I had the privilege of preaching. My text? Galatians 5 of course, the Fruit of the Spirit. We had a good number present even though rain was in the forcast earlier in the week. Many of the teens made good decisions and we're praying for God's continued work in each of their lives. Above our teens preformed a skit. At right (below) the participating churches were being recognized individually.
The theme of my message was "What type of fruit is growing in your life?" With that in mind I made up a special "fruit basket" and left it in the sun for a week. It illustrated the fruit that we allow to grow and often try to offer to God. None of the teens wanted any of the fruit. Can you imagine that.
I thought they looked like donuts at first!
ReplyDeleteHi Mike,
ReplyDeleteI was trying to attach a letter that was sent to all the missionaries we support. The main thought of the letter is the ladies of our church would like to make items that can be used on the field.Do you or Dawn have any suggestions of things the ladies can make for you. Wordless books
or things of that nature.
