This past Tuesday, February 23rd we had our first youth group kick off. Four youth showed up, praise God! We had fun, played some games, ate some popcorn, and got to know each other. For our bible teaching we played a DVD video clip from the movie "Bruce Almighty" and related the scene where Bruce (Jim Carrey) goes to heaven and prays to God (Morgan Freeman). We included some scriptures with this and asked the kids some questions. In fact, they gave some good answers. Please note, these are youth that have never heard the stories of Jesus. They never went to church regularly like some of us who have. I (Paul) believe that only one of them still lives with both of their parents, and who knows where else they would be if we didn't open the doors on Tuesday evening for them? Only God knows where their future will wind up; and more importantly only God knows their eternal destiny.
With great intentions and a big heart, we believe that we could help a few, disciple a few, and lead a few more people closer to Jesus - so the few could one day reach more.
Jesus taught one of His first disciples Peter..."Don't be afraid; from now on you will catch men."
Please continue to pray for Heini, I, Josiah, and Gloria and your overseas church family from Bridgeton Life Church.
Thank you always for your support.
Love,
The Euliano's
