THE PLAN, STRATEGY, GOAL

 

Deuteronomy 6

 4"Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the (F)LORD is one! 5"You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6"These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. 7"You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up.  8"You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.  9"You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.


Our Youth Group is working toward one goal to disciple youth. As the bible clearly states the parents are to be the primary spiritual disciplers of their children. Far too long Churches have acted as spiritual baby-sitters. The facts are in and 70 to 90% of church going teens drop out of church after high school. They graduate God.  That is not okay! One hour of youth service a week out of 168 is simply not enough to make a strong spiritual foundation.


So we are joining hands with parents to take back our future generation. We are striving to equip and resource parents to be all that God has called them to be. We are listening to what the parents think and asking “How can we help?” We are going to do Youth Ministry different, we long to do it God’s way.
