Liquid Youth Group

 

A team from our Liquid youth congregation joined with Spearhead to spend a week working with a local church in Valmez.

The majority of the week was taken up helping on an English camp, teaching young people the English language during the day then at night holding Gospel meetings for the camp students.

Although the camp wasn’t what we expected, it was great fun getting  to know the local young people, playing sports with them and building them up in their faith.

Although the camp wasn’t what we expected, it was great fun getting  to know the local young people, playing sports with them and building them up in their faith. The camp was lead by young leaders from the church and we had lots of opportunity to pray for them, teach them about being lead by the spirit and praying for them to be filled and imparted with spiritual gifts. 

 

Once the camp was over we then joined the church for an evangelistic weekend on one of the local estates. The Saturday was made up of us playing games with the estate children, doing face painting, nail art, sports and much much more! We had lots of time to talk to the residence from the area, most of whom were very intrigued by what we were doing and wanted to know why we were there! On the Sunday we held an open air gospel meeting in the middle of 5 massive flat blocks. It was great seeing residence come and join us in worship and seeking God. Tim gave a great gospel message which then naturally followed on to an alter-call and praying for the sick. The response was awesome, one man left his flat balcony to be prayed for after Tim prophesied about his illness. That afternoon we saw many healed and saved, it was a great way to finish of the week and we left with very high spirits!
