DISCOVERY

Each moment of life is a discovery of something. This was proven true last weekend when 29 youth from two churches gathered for an event called Discovery. The discovery was God's love, flowing in the many moments found in only a few hours. The heart of the weekend centered on discovering God's love through the Church, represented by Lester's Chapel and New Heights (both in Chelsea, AL). God's love became flesh as adults and high school students poured several months of preparation for 38 hours of intense investment into these awesome junior high students. Highlights of the weekend were videos, skits, talks given by high-schoolers, prayer. And did we mention the awesome worship led by "Rupert the Whale"? In all we experienced, Jesus Christ was the center of this spiritual retreat. At the end of it all, God's love was seen through the Church and because of that His love was "Discovered" at Discovery '09! Many thanks to EVERYONE from both churches who helped!!!
