Back to School Retreat

WILD YOUTH RETREAT

This past Friday & Saturday the WILD Youth had their Spring Retreat. The Retreat that was scheduled to be held at Farlington State Park was moved to the church due to the weather not cooperating. We had a great time hanging out. We had some amazing worship sessions, and devotions. The discussion topic for the youth retreat was “Why do I hurt if God loves me” & “God are you there”. God did some awesome stuff in the hearts of our teens.

The weather did great after the retreat kicked off and we were able to have all our fun outdoor activities that we had planned. We played basketball (the WILD version); we went on a bike ride at the wilderness park in Frontenac, wow what an experience, Fishing at the PSU Lake and a lot more crazy games that you would need to attend one of our Youth events to experience. We also had some great food. BBQ Chicken, sausage and egg burritos, Sub Sandwiches, Yummy makes my mouth water. Overall it was a great time hanging out with all our crazy Teens and experiencing God’s presence. For Images Clik Here.

Wow what a weekend. God is good. He is doing something amazing in the lives of our Teens. We had 4 of our Teens qualify for national Fine Arts. Ashlee Hisey for songwriting, Baylee Hisey for Songwriting with the highest score in the state, Alvin Jackson for poetry with the highest score in the state & Jacob Peterson for Songwriting. We also received a Superior rating for Worship Team, Short sermon by Dustin Rakestraw, Graphic Design by Dolphin Sharma & Male Solo by Thaun Tran. I am proud of our Teens. Most importantly God is so proud of them. ROCK ON GUYS! for images click here.

FIRST NIGHT AT FINE ARTS

It was Friday night 

and the Holy Spirit was moving

The Hisey twins blew the stage away

After Jacob Perterson set the stage 

with his blazing music

It was followed by a fiery sermon by Dustin Rakestraw

we ended the night with the Worship Team 

Making a joyful sound unto the Heavens.

Composed by Alvin Jackson whose Poetry submission to Fine Arts 

is about to shutter the walls of Jericho.

HEADING TO FINE ARTS

10 of our Teens and 3 sponsors are heading to Wichita KS tomorrow for the Fine Arts festival. This is the first time that the WILD youth ministries will be sending a team to fine arts. God is doing some amazing stuff in the lives of our Teens. He has blessed our Teens with some amazing talents. We have 3 Teens Ashlee H, Baylee H and Jacob P that are entering for Song Writing. Alvin J is entering for Poetry, Dustin R for Sort Sermon, Thun T for Solo & Dolphin S for Graphic Design. We also are entering for the category of Worship Team. I am excited for our Teens. 

PHONE BOOK DISTRIBUTION - FUND RAISER

The WILD youth kicked off their Phone book distribution project by bagging 4800 books in 2 hours. What a team. We will be distributing about 9000 phone books in Pittsburg to raise funds for "Speed the Light" and youth camp. LETS GO TEENS!
