Influence culture. Live out your mission. Develop disciples. Grow spiritually.
What are you waiting for people of Galilee? Presbyterian Church? Youth Workers?
As you walk out of your hotel door there you will find sand, water, peace, friendship. As you gather together with sisters and brothers in Christ, with fellow youth workers, pastors, educators, and lay people, you begin to feel the energy you once felt, or the passion that exists so deeply in your longing to serve God and serve the church. As you pray, focus and listen to the deep longings of your own heart, the stirrings of your calling, as a youth worker, you begin to feel alive again! What are you waiting for?
