Youth Led Worship

This evening, the youth led the worship. And I suppose, if I had to use one word to describe the evening, it would be moving.


First, the youth performed a skit that can also be found on youtube.com. It's a silent skit performed to a song and it describes a person--while being tempted by the bad influences of the world--who keeps her eyes focused on God, who is always calling to us and reaching out for us. 


Then we had a discussion about the temptations the grown- ups faced when they were young. Then several youths stood up and personally testified to the temptations they face. Sometimes they succeeded; other times, they failed. 


It was a night of vulnerability and tears and love and forgiveness. It was a night that drew the group even closer together. And it was a night of many Kleenexes.
