WE BELIEVE! - LCMS National Youth Gathering 2010
As you may have heard, the National Youth Gathering “WE BELIEVE!” is July 17-21, 2010 in New Orleans, LA and Victory is sending a delegation of youth to gather with over 20,000 of their closest friends for a great faith building experience!! Anybody who has ever attended one of these amazing events will tell you it’s a rare experience that should not be missed. There will be great music, new friendships, fantastic Bible studies, moments of enlightenment, plenty of laughter and a worship service at which about 30,000 teenagers will participate in Holy Communion. Wow!
The gathering theme is John 20:31 “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”
Get on board!! Let's send a great group of kids to a great experience!

[Anybody (ages 14-21) interested should bring their parents to the meeting on Sunday (9/13 after late service) and if you have one, bring a friend!]

The Vitamin 9.9.9
2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, {17} so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Christianity can be confusing. What’s it really all about? How can anyone know for sure? The fact that God gave us His Word, the Bible means that He wants us to know about Him. I’d say Christianity is about a relationship with God. A faith relationship with God through Jesus. That relationship starts and endures through contact with God’s Word. And God’s Word is useful! It trains us in righteousness so that we can live in response to what God has done for us.
Jesus came, lived, and died to pay the price for our sins. Now it’s our privilege to live for Him. Again, it doesn’t have to be complicated. God directs us to worship, pray, give, serve and interact with each other and the world around us. At the risk of oversimplifying things we could say it’s like a divine recipe. Scripture, prayer, service, giving, witnessing, these things are the ingredients for Godly living. It requires discipline, but God promises the power of His Spirit to move us along.
Get cookin’. Read, pray, worship, serve, give. The results will bring us happiness and will glorify God!
