Youth Group Celebration

These last 4 months, we have been studying a book with the Youth Group called "Nueva Vida En Cristo" (New Life in Christ).  This is the first Bible/book study that any of them have participated in and it goes through the basics of the Christian faith such as salvation, prayer, devotional life, baptism, etc.  It has been a big commitment for them and we finished the book last Saturday.  It was super exciting as we had a pizza party at Pizza Hut to reward them for their hard work.  They all came dressed in their best and really enjoyed this time together as many never get to go to a restaurant to eat.  Each youth proudly received their certificate of completion as the group clapped and cheered for each name that was called. There were 32 students who actually finished the book and received a certificate.  It was such a blessing to be a part of this big accomplishment with them as this culture is is very noncommittal and finishing a commitment like this is very rare!  Please continue to pray for these precious students as we begin book #2 with them in January!!!







Here are a few of our students with their certificates...so proud of them!!
