New Light

Last Friday (1/18/08) we got to attend a wonderful worship night, followed by a lock-in at New Light. Bill, the youth pastor, called it Undeniable, based on Romans 1. He referenced a few other passages, too, but focused mostly on this chapter from Romans. The theme is that God's presence, His work, His knowledge, etc., etc., is undeniable. Knowledge began with God. So if you want to attain knowledge and be wise, you should know God.

I'm working on getting notes from Pastor Bill. But for now, check out their youth group blog. It was also cool being in worship with around 60 youth. That's definitely something we do not get to experience very much, and it's cool hearing a big room of voices like that worshipping God. We will definitely have more experiences like this. So stay tuned.

Last Friday (12/14/07) we had a great fellowship event swimming at the Coco Key Water Resort, which is part of the Sheraton Hotel in Arlington Heights. This was a joint fellowship activity with the Meadows youth group, whom we share the same church building with. More events like these need to happen. It can get pretty monotonous with the same people in the same place all the time. I encourage you to read our fellowship/community blog to see why this is an important thing. Much thanks to DB for setting this up.
