I am so proud of our youth. They are the very best.
Two years ago StreetReach – as I was arriving at Mt. Oak – our youth went on a trip to Ireland – a youth rally – and then after the rally 5,000 plus youth hit the streets of Belfast – working on yards simply because Christ’s love is free – people that maybe couldn’t or wouldn’t keep their yards up were helped.
Our youth came home excited – wanted to do it locally – did last summer and one Saturday each month throughout the year – 50 this summer for a week mission trip – several churches want in and a team from Belfast is coming next summer – worked on over 20 homes the first two days – still have through Friday this week – evening events each night – had over 150 people for movie night Wednesday – concert in Allen’s Pond in Bowie at 7 pm – our praise team – Friday night – it is awesome! Reaching the unchurched – several folks have called the church wanting to know who and where we were – all the kids are in lime green shirts with StreetReach on one side and Mt. Oak and our symbol on the back – very exciting… God is at work!
