SUMMER SHOWCASE

Don’t miss any of the great coming gatherings and events this SUMMER at Younger Generation Church!

WELCOME HOME!

Welcome back to all our students on Summer break, and a special congratulations to the Class of 2019! Our prayer is that this season will afford all of us time to enjoy family and friends. This Summer has so much in store for Younger Generation Church and we hope you will join in!

The Summer is filled with ballads that sing romantically of love in the heat of the season. Beyond the clichés bantered about with sizzle and steam, if GOD is Love, what are the deeper workings that make love “more than a feeling”? #SummerLovinYG #ygchurch

Love will never become obsolete. –1Corinthians 13:8a [Voice]

Join Younger Generation Church in their series, “Summer of Love,” Saturdays, 10:15AM CDT, in person or online ygchurch.com

VOLUNTEERS ARE THE HEART OF YG: We invite everyone to volunteer at Younger Generation Church. It’s a great way to make new friends, feel more connected, and to honor Jesus with your service. Lot’s of options, choose one if not more. Sign up today! volunteer.ygchurch.com

SUMMER OF LOVE: JULY PUT YOUR LOVE INTO ACTION: Take steps this month to put actions to your list of 12.

1. Decide that you are going to let God use you and your relationships in an intentional way to lead people into a deeper relationship with Jesus. Commit to growing as His disciple, and not just settle for watching/attending.

2. Pray for God to bring to mind specific people for you to include. Don't force it. If you don't have all 12 yet, don't let that slow you down. Start with those who come to mind, knowing God will reveal the remainder in due time, and He might change some names from time to time. Use the attached handout to list your 12 people.

3. Schedule points of loving contact with your 12 people on your calendar and/or electronic device to help you remember. Spread out the points of contact so it isn't overwhelming; Perhaps thee people per week.

Be creative, and allow the Holy Spirit to impress you with personable ways to add variety and "your touch" to your points of contact.
