First Youth Lock-in

After our church opened, we began spending time with two different sets of youth. One was the Amaralina (a neighborhood near the church) family, Jaci's neices, nephews and their friends (about 7 kids) whom we have been studying the Bible with for a while now. The other was the Rio Vermelho family - two teenagers and their two friends - Randy and Jennifer have been leading a small gruop during the week with this household. The night of our lock-in these two groups really came together! Many of them had not even met before. It was a break-through for our youth program here and a really special night. God is working in the hearts of these teenagers to build bridges where there were none and create a hunger for learning His Word.
