commissioning.

this years SERVE theme is to just be.

on sunday, church commissioned the youth group for our chicago trip. youth unlimited provided a powerful litany for our send off.

"By just being with God, we find what our spirits long for, and we receive the power to be Christ to others."

"We want to learn how to just be with you so that we can receive your gifts of grace and
then use those gifts to make a difference in this world for your kingdom. Help us to move from living as humans doing to become human beings"

please pray that we would "just be" this upcoming week. that we would be in the moment, be in His presence, be in His word, be in prayer. pray that our (the youth group) hearts would be open to God and His plan.
