We did some basic introductions and also made our leaders sit in the "hot seat" where the kids have 2 minutes to ask any question they want to the poor unsuspecting youth leader. A few kids even volunteered!
We discussed to basic "ground rules" of youth group including our three goals for the year:
1. Encounter God
2. Love each other
3. Serve
The students were introduced to a devotional that will go along with our series on James that should take us right up to the Christmas Break.
We also took some time to journal, responding to the question "what would I like to see God do this year?" and ended the night off with a prayer wall, where we give anyone who wants to an opportunity to add some prayer requests to the list.
All in all, it was a great night and it was so much fun to see all the kids again, and have a bunch of new faces too!
We are looking forward to another amazing year where God will do incredible things!
