Youth Sunday

“Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me but the one who sent me.”

The Rev. Mercedes Clements welcomed the youth to sit with her at the altar as she talked about our Gospel reading during our Youth Sunday service. In the story Jesus said some "big things" but doesn't really mean for us to cut off our hands or feet, but is saying this exaggeration to help us remember something. Sometimes how parents tell us to not swallow gum or it will stay in our stomach for 7 years.

Thank you to all of the youth and their parents who helped make this service so special for so many.
