To Be Without

What an amazing week we had in youth ministry. We just completed a 30 hour Famine, wherein over 100 teens gathered, prayed and Fasted from Food. In addition teens raised money to benfit World Hope, and organization that cares for the Homeless and Hungry.
I was utterly humbled at the dedication and determination the teens of Crossroads and GAPP had to this cause. At one point i walked into the foyer and realized that many of ouor youth had invited their friends, and they too fasted for the day.
My prayer has been that this generation catches hold to causes such as this. Ones that will help them identify with those less fortunate and not only that but be willing to pray for those who are suffering in various ways.
God is ever faithful and as We have shared in youth each week, he will help you overcome any obstacles that you may see in your way. So if you are reading this and thinkinghow can help build god's kingdom, know that he has a place for you. At CWC that is what we are about, "Knowing God and Making Him Known". As our youth are catching ahold of that vision, are you?

Have an awesome and blessed week!
