Our Christian Sympathy . . .

COME GROW WITH US: The Youth United Ministry is seeking youth and teens who are engaged to learn about the WORD of God. So meet us every Wednesday night from 6pm to 7:30pm. Come, Grow/Go With Us: We minister to children ages toddler through 18. This Week at Campus 903: The Youth Choir Rehearsal This Week’s Inspiration: Top 10 things you need to model to improve creativity. 2 Break the rule—remove the barriers of tradition and habits. Youth Ministry At New Pilgrim: The Youth Ministry will be going to the Birmingham Barons Game on Friday, June 27th, 2014 at 7:05pm. Parents, we need the youth at the church by 6:30pm. We have limited tickets so please see Rev. Johnson after worship.

Youth Day 2014 is right around the corner. Youth Day re-hearsal will begin on Wednesday, June 25th at 6:15pm. Our colors for this year will be pastel color tops and dark bottoms. Our goal is to have all youth participating on youth day — you do not have to be in Youth Ministry on Wednesdays to participate. If you are a youth, we need you and you need us. Get ready to do your part and join the praise!
