Up and Coming!

Summer time is wrapping up as school is fast approaching! Bummer, I know. But we have a lot of things in store for the next few weeks and months! Next Wednesday our crew leaves for North American Youth Congress at 7AM! Slightly early, but everyone will survive with the help of some Starbucks and donuts...

Returning home from Congress will be when the good times start rolling out! Not only will we begin a brand new series called "The Power of One" but our stage will be completely redesigned!! It will blow your mind, I promise!

I look forward to great things. Starting today, let's go make a difference!

BSM is moving forward

It is an exciting time to be apart of Backstage Student Ministry! Friday starting at 10 PM is our lock in/rock-a-thon to raise money for North American Youth Congress. It's going to be one "rockin" party!!!

Ok, that was a bad joke, but nevertheless its going to be a good time! The cost for NAYC is $250 a person but that does not include spending money, so bring what you want to eat and shop on. The trip is from August 5th - 8th and its going to be in the music capital of Nashville, TN. You really do not want to miss it!

For the past two weeks our focus subject has been on Worship and Praise. We know their is a difference but we also understand that they are intertwined. Worship is a lifestyle of estimating God's greatness and praise is the outward articulation of God's greatness. A powerful concept that we must embrace by living a lifestyle of worship so that a burning passion of praise will come out of us. God desires our praise and he dwells in the midst of it....

Looking forward to great things and I hope all of you guys are ready for what God is about to do!
