Patrick Mead at SYS

Tonight was Richland Hill's opportunity to host the area teens at Summer Youth Series (SYS). Patrick Mead (from Scotland, via Detroit) was our speaker following Thomas Aduddell's leading of some mighty worship songs. Yep - just like we remembered SYS - so neat to be with so many people who all love the Lord.



Patrick spoke on "Community" - seems like we are really trying to be just that - a community. The one thing teens want to see is acceptance - where walls (between schools, skin color, economic status, age, looks, etc) all come down and they can be themselves - who God made them to be. This is what community really is - accepting others, loving others, not judging others and forgiving others. Thank you Patrick for helping us remember that. I'll especially remember the $15 principle every time I go to a car wash. :)
