Helping out with the youth...

Thursday the 28th of May was my last time to work with the youth at Agape church where I attend. It has been such a wonderful treat and pleasure on my part to get to spend some time with these great kids. I was allowed to help out at game night where I showed the youth how to do different origami figures. Then on the 21st they were doing a message about Health from a Christian’s perspective. The sermon was in three parts of health: spiritual, emotional and physical, so I chose to speak on emotional health. It had been a while since I had to get up in front of a group so I was super nervous, even after I was up front for a while. In the end I think I did pretty well though, we all did, it turned out really great and we all worked off of each others’ sermons. Afterwards I talked to Pastor Evans about teaching the youth some skits I learned for the trip to the Philippines last year and he really liked that idea. So this last Thursday, May 28th, we broke the youth into two groups and taught each group a skit and they would perform it for the other group. When they were finished I would get up and explain what the skit meant. Then we had the groups switch and taught them the other skit and had them perform it, so it was kind of like a competition. It was so neat to see each one really get into their parts and add their own thing to it. After I turned them back over to Pastor Evans he asked them what they had learned from the skits and I really think they got something out of it. This youth group is the next generation of Ghana and I really am truly blessed to have been a part of teaching them Gods word.
