When there is a fifth Sunday the Youth Forum, students 5th – 10th grade, are responsible for the liturgical elements of the service. Today, for the first time, the Youth Forum also was offered the opportunity to provide the sermon. Ethan did a GREAT job.

On the 4th Sunday of each month, our fabulous Music Minister teaches gives the opportunity to our Sunday Schoolers to learn the first verse of the last hymn of the day. Different Sundays yield different amounts of Sunday School Singers, and while this Sunday had 3 of our 10+ kids interested, other Sundays have a higher amount. Great job to Janice and the Sunday Schoolers! [wpvideo A3fqn5IQ]
