Weekly Youth Update: 4/7 - 4/13

The Homeland Park youth just finished an awesome week! Our friend, Brock Bass, shared his personal testimony and taught from Matthew 7:21-23. He really challenged our students to examine their lives and hearts to determine if they have trusted in Jesus and His work alone for salvation or if they are seeking to earn salvation through good works. We are really seeing God starting to mold and transform hearts!

On Saturday, we had our hike to Station Cove Falls! Some of our students saw their very first waterfall and all of us were able to better understand God’s magnificent power in creation! We are gathering some pictures from the event and I’ll post them as soon as possible!

This week, we will begin our Wednesday night study of Colossians. We will study Colossians 1:1-14 and some of the background around the writing of the letter. The Family Life Center will open at 6:00 for anyone wanting to hang out and Bible study will last from 6:30-7:30. We hope to see you there!

Finally, the last details are being finalized for the beach retreat to Wilmington and I will provide an update with a separate post within the next week!

If you have any questions, email me at jason@homelandparkbc.org!

This ordinance is not for everyone.  This is only to be taken by those who are believers and accepted Jesus as their ultimate forgiver and leader.  To partake in this service in an unworthy state is sin. 1 Corinthians 11:27 (NLT) 27 So anyone who eats this bread or drinks this...
