Wow what a night!! We started off by meeting at the church and discussing God's abundant love. Our first scripture reading for the day came from John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life." We then looked at John 13: 34 & 35, "So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples." Just to summarize what we talked about was how much love God really has for all of us, both believers and unbelievers. We then used a little exercise to show how God's love multiplies when we share the love of Jesus Christ with others we come in contact with.
We then set out our mission for the afternoon, which was to meet with some of our members at their respective homes and give them a gift of baked goods. Man what an experience. All of the youth members had a great time and it was a wonderful experience. Everyone seemed so happy to see us and they were all very thankful.
I would like to thank our youth parents for supplying us with our baked goods to deliver. I would also like to thank our volunteers who showed up to help. Thanks!!!
It sounds like it was an exciting night. I wish I could have been there to experience such an awesome act of love.
