Wanted to take a few minutes and just give a shout out to what God is doing over our youth and children's worship ministries at OCOG. Never in all the years and even in the large youth and kids ministries I've been blessed to be part of, have I seen such passion and hunger that I am being honored to now see and be part of.
We've been working on a new youth band at OCOG and these teens are so committed and HUNGRY to learn to be apart of something so exciting. I am documenting the journey along with youth pastors Josh and Carissa (who are doing an astounding job with the youth) because I believe looking back on this a few months from now will be awesome. We are very close to having a complete band and launching live youth worship and I'm just so excited and happy to see what God is doing in and through this generation.
This coming Sunday our kingdom kids ministry will be singing in the sanctuary with myself and UnderCover. The band and I had fun last night planning and preparing for the kids this week. Children's pastors Donny and Samantha are doing a great job with our kids and I'm so blessed to be a part of these 2 young couples ministries and life.
Raising up the next generation of worshippers and leaders is alot of work but the pay off is tremendous! I think back to all the leaders that I've been privileged to have under my wing at one time or another and I look up and simply say thank you God. Only heaven knows the lives that are being effected for the Kingdom!
Preying for mentors to come along side us and help in the mentoring process of raising up the next generation of worship leaders, band members, leaders and loves of Jesus.
