Our first youth event went better than expected! We had 35 people total. Some of the kids from other churches here in Salvador were there and about 8 of our own teens (the ones we have been studying the Bible with), plus 2 more unchurched visitors. Anderson (one of our kids) was so excited by the end that he started going around trying to figure out which of the others would be at church Sunday morning. We ate pizza, played get to know you games, sang, and learned about the 3 most important things we have in common: God made us in His image, God loves us, and God is constantly seeking after us. We also made bracelets that coincided with the colors of the points in the lesson. When we told Claudio as he was leaving that he could bring friends the next week, his face lit up. Please pray that at this next event we’ll still have some kids in town (as many families here travel on Easter) and that the teens will have open hearts when it comes to learning about a NEW LIFE in Christ.
