Hungry

Normally you plant a church when numbers exceed capacity. Normally you start new youth groups when there's too many in the existing one!!!

Well goodbye to that idea. For the last few times we have run the 15+ youth cell we have had two people!!
And we're going to run it every week instead of every other week!! Why you may ask? Surely not an effective use of time!!

My response is this....
It is a joy to work with two young people who are submitted to Jesus Christ, who want to serve and live for Him and for the kingdom of God!!

As my colleague put it tonight.. 'you can have a big group that doesn't really know where it's going, or you can have a small core who through their faith and certainty in Christ will shine and attract others'

We may only have a few, but they are spiritually strong. I am convinced that they will impact their friends through their faith and witness!!
