Youth Ministry Update

Church Family,

As we approach Purpose Weekend, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support and prayers. Our students are excited and expectant for what God is going to do during this special time together. Your encouragement, generosity, and faithful intercession are the foundation that helps make weekends like this possible.

This past Sunday, Pastor Keith reminded us of the importance of getting our relationship with Jesus right. Everything else—our service, our worship, our outreach—flows from that relationship. When our hearts are aligned with Christ, our actions naturally reflect His love and truth to the world around us.

That’s the kind of church we are called to be: one that not only gathers to worship but also lives and shares our faith outside the walls of our building. Our students need to see that example lived out. When they witness adults boldly living their faith in their homes, workplaces, and communities, they learn what it means to follow Jesus authentically.

Thank you, church family, for being that example—for showing our young people what it looks like to walk closely with Christ and to carry His light into the world. Let’s keep praying for our students as they seek to discover God’s purpose for their lives and as we all strive to be a church that lives our faith out loud.

In Christ,
Cody Dowden
