Young adults- General Council #5

At the General Council, a number of ministries hosted informational lunches and dinners. One of the best was the Young Adult lunch. They had a very healthy salad (of course), with an incredibly caloric and delicious dessert! But during the lunch several people ministering among young adults shared ideas on reaching young adults (ya). I heard two keys to this- food and fellowship. First is the principle, feed them, and they will come. Second is that ya are hungry for fellowship and community, and want to belong, so you need to create a community for them. It was encouraging to hear of the growth of this ministry in our church, the Assemblies of God, and the larger body of Christ. We are on the right track!

  1. I am truly excited for the plans the Lord has for Young Adults all around the world. But even more, I am excited about the awesome things the Lord has for the Young Adults ministry in our church. He has been so faithful to Meghan's prayers, and of all those who have been praying for this ministry for years. God has something great for this generation.
