Youth - Can You Really Change The World?sSz

Deep down, everyone wants to make a difference. But it isdifficult for us to get past our own issues, problems, anddistractions to see that our lives can count right now.s

Youth in grades 6-12 are invited to join us for Sunday nightYouth Fellowship and Bible Study as we enjoy time togetherand journey through a four week bible study series by MaxLucado. We will receive Biblical insight into how God hasuniquely created students with certain passions, talents, andinterests to impact the world for Christ. In this interactivevideo series, students share real-life stories on how they'vespoken up, stepped out and made a difference around them.

Moses stretched out his hand......and the waters were a wall unto them.
