Cranberry Crave: this was a great after-Thanksgiving game we played at Jr. High MYF. The kids had to work their way through a pile of cranberry sauce, find a Mentos and be the first one to eat it. Billy Perce was our big winner of the night!

MYF Last Night...
Junior High--we talked about our final purpose as followers of Jesus in our series, we are to share the Good News of Jesus with people around us. We do this with our life, by inviting others and by sharing our story of how God has worked in our lives. We finished by watching a funny video of ways not to share our faith.

High School--the main discussion was how the church is not a building, but it is the big group of Jesus-followers. Here is a quote from the book we have been reading..."From very early on in the church, a striking thing happened: These Jesus Followers starting calling each other brother, sister, mother, father....The church is both a Kingdom and a family of Jesus Followers. There's something about doggedly pursuing Jesus, about living in his Kingdom, that transforms and draws together like nothing else."

MYF this last week:
Junior High--we are made to serve God...and we do this through serving in our church, our community, and our world. We need to keep our eyes open to see where God wants to use us.
Senior High--repentance is all about stopping in your tracks, admitting you're going the wrong way, believing that there is a better way.....turning from the kingdom of the world, the kingdom of sin, the kingdom on self....and walking straight into the open arms of God.
My prayer for us: God, thank you for giving us purpose and significance. I ask that you give us opportunities to serve, to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Keep us open to putting others interests before our own. Thank you for forgiveness, help us see our complete need for you. Jesus, thank you for willingly giving of your life and for your victory over sin and death. It is because of you that we can repent and be made right in the eyes of God. We worship and honor you God. Amen.
