2019 has been an amazing year for our youth department!
We kicked off our year with our DNOW weekend and our theme of “Everlasting.” Through this we explored our theme verse of John 3:16, and how we can view that verse as a promise of hope, instead of just seeing it as the first verse you might memorize in church. Barrett Moore brought a powerful message throughout the week and our band, Guy Shaw, Maddi and Jon Yarbrough, Steve O’Neal, and Stuart Harrier, led us in phenomenal worship!
In June we took a team of 31 students and adults to Houston, Texas to serve with World Changers for a week. This was a beneficial week to all who were involved to have the opportunity to help with Hurricane Harvey repairs serving alongside other churches. Trading in comfort for hard labor is never an easy transition for students but they all served faithfully and were great leaders in work ethic, leading bible studies, and Gospel presentations.
It has been a blessing to serve the students here at Fee Fee over the last year. As a student at Missouri Baptist, it has been an amazing opportunity to learn first-hand what I am studying on campus. Many of my peers do not have the opportunities I have been given, so I am incredibly thankful to be a part of a church body that has come alongside me and poured their love into me while I continue on this journey. I am looking forward to continuing my education at school and my training towards licensure and ordination here at Fee Fee with Pastor Zach. Most importantly, I am really looking forward to building deeper relationships with our students and leaders as we continue to reach out to our local community. See you in 2020!
