The community youth ministry called YIELD is presenting a parenting seminar this Saturday in Kershaw.  Team Church has been promoting this event on Sundays and we also advertised at the movie night.  Cami Armbrust who often plays and sings  in the Team Church worship band(is that really our band’s name???  mmmm….)  is the director of YIELD.  YIELD was created to minister to kids in the area that don’t attend church or have a faith background as well as connect youth who were part of churches that are limited in their youth ministry.

Team Church fits that mission well because we too have the one purpose to reach out to people (youth included) where they are and lead them to full devotion in Jesus Christ…that means that we want to partner with our local ministries that are committed to reaching out to the un-church, de-churched, anti-church (you get the picture).  Plus, we’re such a brand new ministry that our youth resources are limited.  Since we have a very simple plan for doing Sunday mornings, we don’t have a separate youth ministry, and so we always encourage youth to get involved with YIELD.  I’m really thankful that we’ve got a community youth ministry and I hope that our partnership can grow even more!

Anyway, I hope that the local folks who read this blog will consider coming to the Real World Parents Seminar…the details are below.  I hope that everyone understands the importance of learning Biblical and practical ways of parenting.  If you’re going, or even if you’re not and you understand how important it is, would you consider providing a scholarship to help some other parents go?  We want to encourage parents as much as possible, and if you can help provide $5 or $10 to help some parents go who otherwise wouldn’t, you can give Cami Armbrust an email and let her know that you’d like to help.
