We are going to try something new with the Youth at church this Christmas. We are going to do a “25 Days of Living in the Light” – A Response To God’s Grace Blog! The church has bought (25) $25.00 Gift Cards and we have asked the Youth to request a gift card and to use it for someone one need this Christmas Season. In return they are going to send me a paragraph (and hopefully a picture) on what they did with the Gift Card. Why it was important to them. And how it fit\u2019s into their Christian Faith. I am going to organize the paragraphs into 25 different blog posts starting on Dec 1 and going to Dec 25th, posting one each day. I hope you take some time to log on each day, and ready them. The kids have an incredible Faith and it is great to experience it, through their eyes. They are really awesome! Please join us!<\/p>\n
