Youth News: Dec. 19, 2019
Thursday July 2nd, 2020Hello Youth Family!
When you’re reading this, I believe most of our High Schoolers have finished finals and ALL of you are now starting your winter break! Congratulations and get your well-deserved rest! As we start our Christmas/New Year break, I want to specifically invite you all to join our Annual Christmas Parties THIS SATURDAY, the signups and details are in the announcements below.
As this is our last Youth Newsletter of 2019, I want to encourage you with one of my favorite stories of the Bible. From Numbers 13, Moses sends 12 men to scout out the land to see if it is suitable for the 12 tribes of Israel. Out of the 12, 10 men returned with negative reports full of fear and meekness, but two men, Joshua and Caleb returned with positive reports of potential and vision. My questions to you SJCAC family is: How do you see in the year 2020? Is it just another year? Is it a year of hardship and pain? Or is it a year of the potential of Hope and a year of transformation?
Please take a moment to write down how you see the year 2020, and give it up to the Lord, for the Lord is powerful and will complete His will in 2020. I bless you to end 2019 well and start 2020 even better, with strength and courage (Joshua 1:9)!
Merry Christmas!
Pastor David
