On Sunday the 29th, our youth led the worship service.  Here are some audio clips of them leading various parts of the worship and presenting a drama/skit for the morning message.  Enjoy.

We had 12 kids attend Winter Blitz in January! This is a weekend youth conference that the KY Conference puts on each year. A great time for us all to hear fabulous Christian music, hear inspiring talks by a great speaker, participate in mission work and generally get excited to be a part of a Christian community. We are excited about the new year and look forward to being in ministry with our youth as we pray and plan for new ways to be Jesus to the world around us!

November was fabulous for Youth Ministry and we are really looking forward to December! We kicked off our new study based on the movie “To Save a Life”, have had wonderful discussion concerning the issues in this movie, shopped for at least 5 shoeboxes, made stockings for the children of inmates and served a wonderful meal to the residents of McCauley House. I don’t know if we can beat that in December! Our youth parents are the real heroes in all this ministry as they shuffle schedules and provide continuous support for both their kids and kids they barely know.

Here comes December so hold onto your hats!

Where did the summer go? It seems crazy that we are back into the school routine! A big thank you to all of you who were involved in Impact Appalachia! We have been learning about God’s purposes for our lives and scripture tells us that God has created us to serve others and that is exactly what you all did at The Joy Center. Served others. We’ll definitely do it again!
Speaking of serving others, we will travel to EDGE this month to sort shoes for their shoe ministry. Selling used shoes pays for clean water throughout the world! How amazing is that? Wear clothes that can get dirty and bring your servants heart.
Mark your calendars:
Sept 7 - Breath of Life(Goshen Store at 5:30)
Sept 14 - Soul Surfer Documentary
Sept 21 -Surprise Evening
Sept 28 - EDGE Outreach shoe sorting!(Goshen Store at 5:30)

Blessings, Pastor Susan, Joy and Sherry

It is summer at Shiloh so the youth need to come on Wednesdays prepared to get dirty and/or wet! We have a fun TV themed event planned for each Wednesday of the month so join us and bring a friend or two! We promise you will leave well fed and entertained! Most of our youth will be at Loucon Camp for a week over the summer. Please be praying for their safety and spiritual growth while they are away from home. We are planning a Lock-In for August 5th so let us know if that date works for your students. Summer Rocks!
