Belonging. Believing. Becoming.

A NOTE FROM BOBBY PATTON, DIRECTOR OF YOUTH MINISTRY

Hello Christ Church Family!


This Sunday is Youth Sunday and our students are leading worship! From the Call to Worship, to the music, to the sermon, both morning services will be primarily youth-led. I hesitate to say they will give you a glimpse of the future of the church, only because they ARE the current church. Many of whom you’ll see this Sunday are members through Confirmation! I want to encourage everyone to come and see the wisdom and grace that God has been pouring out onto them.


This Sunday's Faith Formation hour will be more of a hangout/celebration of our youth. Of course, discussion will still be available for those that are wanting it, but overall we'll use the time to celebrate all that God has been doing in their lives!


See you this weekend!

Bobby
