March 20th-24th was an awesome time in the life of epic Youth Ministries. We took 23 students and 5 leaders to Seattle, WA for our annual “Selfless in Seattle” mission trip. This was the largest group we have ever taken and God did some awesome things in the lives of the students who went.

Tomorrow night, at youth group, we will be hearing from some of these students. They will be sharing their stories from the week and challenging all of us to evaluate how we currently spend our days. We will hear about serving, praying, and sharing the Gospel with others. I believe that it will be an awesome night, where God steps in and takes the lives of our students to the next level.

At the end of the night I will share some thoughts on one of the most exciting and challenging passages in all of Scripture. John chapter 20, verses 21-22 says this:

Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.” And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”

We have been given an incredible gift and an enormous responsibility. I am excited to dive into this tomorrow as a group. I’ll see you there at 6:45pm. Don’t forget to invite your friends!
