Youth ministry is not just ministry to youth... it is also ministry by youth. For that reason we were very excited when we were finally able to solidify a music ministry among our young people. After several attempts, they finally came together for a local retreat last September, and from the very first day, God chose to use them.As our retreat was beginning, two teen boys came into the church. They were just passing by and heard the music... the first time in month that the youth had sung in their activities. One of the two, Diego, is faithful in attendance and learning what the Christian life is about.
Recently in December, the group was invited to be part of a children's Christmas carnival at a local stadium. They sang about the love of God to well over a thousand people who circulated at the event. On a personal note, we are please that Brent has joined in as the keyboard player. He has advanced a great deal in his music skills since this time last year.
