Month: January 2012

At the end of this month I’m taking our student leaders to the Believe Conference at Hope International University in Fullerton, CA. Believe is the ministry of Christ In Youth that specializes in Jr. High programming. For more than 10 years, CIY has provided high-energy, Christ-centered events just for Jr. high students and their sponsors. We are intentional about reaching Jr. high students for Christ – on their level. We would take all of our students, but we have Winter Camp in February. Looking forward to this experience with our emerging leaders.
