Youth Choir Participation: Meeting Today!

We love seeing our youth involved in ministry, and our Youth Choir is a great way for them to participate. However, we know the challenges of busy schedules and commitments. To address this, Minister of Music Spence Martin is hosting a meeting today after the service in the MPR. Both youth and their parents are encouraged to attend and share thoughts on how we can strengthen this ministry. Let’s work together to make this a space where our youth can grow and serve joyfully.

There’s so much to look forward to, and we’re excited about how God will work through these events. Let’s stay committed, connected, and prayerful as we serve together this year.
