On September 26th, Team Beta had the terrific opportunity to visit the middle and high school students of Belleville Mennonite School.

We got there fairly early with little traffic, and set up to practice our songs. The kids started arriving and we performed three songs (There is A God, Healing Begins, End of the Beginning)  Then, Tim shared a short devotional from 1 Timothy 4:12. He encouraged the students as youth to step out and be examples for the rest of Christ’s body, as the scripture says. Next, the team split up and we sat in different groups of kids to have discussion about that specific scripture. While some groups were a little more talkative than others, we still had fun. 🙂

After that, the kids broke up into what they called ‘care groups’. A few care groups would come in at a time, and we would ask them questions about how they could change their school for Christ. Tim posed questions like: If Jesus walked into your school, what would He like or dislike? What talents, abilities, and gifts do you have that you could use for God’s glory at school? The kids had fabulous answers and we were able to spark some ideas for them to build upon. It was extremely exciting.

It was a full but very fun day. To God be the glory!
