Audacious Youth

Last year N:r-gize (our youth group) went to the Ultimate youth camp. This year they decided to be audacious!  Audacious is an amazing youth event that was held in Portsmouth. It was a week of worship, teaching and fun which everyone massively enjoyed. Here are some quotes from those who went…

“I never knew how much strength you can draw from God – getting down on your knees to worship, it’s just so amazing.  I see that God is really moving in England.  Don’t just lie back and take life as it is – I want to do things I’ve never done before and I feel God has given me strength!”

“I’m a Christian and I’m not going to stay in the shadows any more!”

“An amazing time for me!  I went to a different level with my worship – if you really go for it, rise up, sing and worship, it’s amazing, I don’t know how to explain it!”

“I grew stronger with the Holy Spirit and it has really touched me – I learnt how to cope with life”

“It really changed my life.  I realise I sometimes hang out with the wrong crowd and it will lead me down the wrong path, now I realise what the right path is.”

“I have really grown and for the first time in my life I got an answer from praying!”

“I was filled and my eyes were opened, I saw the world in a different light and Jesus is the only salvation.”

 

After returning to the church in Birmingham, N:r-gize led our next evening service. To see how they got on take a look at this video.  We’ve also put a few clips from Audacious on YouTube to give you an idea of what it was like.

New Minibus

A couple of weeks ago we were delighted to take delivery of our brand new minibus. Our heartfelt thanks go to Birmingham City Council whose grant made this possible.  The minibus is primarily for the use of our youth group, N:r-gize.

Ultimate Youth Camp

Towards the end of August N:r-gize went to Ultimate Youth Camp.  This was a week long extravanganza of worship, team building, sports, adventure activities, teaching and most of all fun.  16 of our youth group went and you can see what they got up to on YouTube.  They all enjoyed it immensely and can’t wait to go again next year.  Once again our thanks go to Birmingham City Council who gave us a grant to help finance the project.
