In the last 3 months we have already seen a

great amount of growth on Wednesday nights
and because of that, we need more volunteers
to help us!! This does not mean we only need
help on Wednesday nights. In fact, we are
reshaping our entire Youth Ministry in hopes of
reaching the most students possible. I know
some of you are saying There is no way I
could work with teenagers or you are asking
yourself the questionWhat could I have to
offer? As I have said the last 2 weeks...If you
will love the students and you have a desire to
see them radically changed through the Gospel of Jesus Christ, then I have a spot you can
help. If you can volunteer, please contact me!
