Youth News: Feb. 20, 2020

Thursday July 2nd, 2020

Hello Youth Family!

Welcome back home from the Winter Retreat! I hope you all received rest and are getting back into the groove of life down the mountain. I want to encourage all of you to maintain the Momentum of what God has done at the Winter Retreat and take moments of courage and stick with community.

This morning I want to encourage you from our Time with Abba, to start with humble beginnings. Sometimes after a retreat, it is very discouraging or frustrating when returning back home and often times we lose our courage and drive to continue to spend time with God. I want to encourage each one of you to remember and hold close the words you received from God and to persevere because day by day this small faith you have will grow. You might not know when, or how, but the Lord will grow you.

Blessings,
Pastor David
