Mission Sharing Night Also includes Sara's Summer Missions and Spiritual Life Retreat.

It was great to see the youth sharing about how God used them and opened their eyes through Group Workcamps this year.  We worked out of Indianapolis, IN and had a fantastic time serving our residents and sharing and worshiping at our evening programs.  Awesome doesn't begin to describe it! 

Then Sara Kluttz came up and shared what God enabled here to do in Costa Rica through Score International.  They went around playing soccer against a Costa Rica team and would then share the gospel and pray for people to accept Christ as their savior.  I think it was over 1,200 people that committed their life or rededicated their life to Christ.  Then they hook them up with local churches for follow-up discipleship programs.   Then Sara also hosted a soccer training camp for youth from the West Side.  Sara had many corporate sponsors and friends and family to help make it all happen.  Thank you Sara for all you do for the Kingdom!!

Summer Mission Crew inspires youth to serve their church.

Thursday the 17th of July, when most teens are watching their favorite show or playing video games, many of Tyner UMC's youth were helping Rose Dover, the beloved Choir Director in the Traditional worship service, paint a bedroom.  Seven youth and two leaders arrived and gradually more and more youth continued dropping in until we had a room full of teens taping and painting.  After we had been working a while it didn't look like we would ever get finished in the one evening, however, the youth really kicked it in high gear and we were able to not only finish, but help get furniture back in place and have the room ready for sleeping that evening.  Wanted to say thanks to Jeff H, Andrew P, and Michael P for helping stir this desire to serve up and helping make it happen that night!
