New Year's falls on a Saturday, heading into Sunday morning. I'm anticipating a much larger crowd this year. It's important to have that spiritual renewal each week.
We have a great future before us and we're excited about the hope we see in the lives of all these young people.
We start our service at 10 o'clock, too. This gives time for each person to give their testimony of where God has brought them through the year up to now.
So much of her time has been in volunteering and working toward the development of our young people.
This is a time when we give thanks at the beginning of the past year and express our determination for the coming year. It's a long-standing tradition in our church.
