Testimonials
Tonight was my first Youth Group Bible study with Logan Hines, and it was awesome! The message was exactly what my kids needed to hear in a way that they could relate and all the kids were truly engaged. I'm not used to working with kids/teens in this setting, and honestly I myself was engaged!! Being part of the lesson for the kids gave me some pointers on how to support my own kids in their challenges, struggles and their victories!
I HIGHLY encourage any of you to bring your kids and sit in! It's a wonderful way to put the phones and game systems down and engage with other kids, have fun, receive some support and tips on battling your way through the tough teen years and leave with hope in your heart to finish the week out strong!
Next group is Wednesday, October 15th @ 6:15 at the United Methodist Church here in Mount Vernon. I have 2 extra seats in my van if you need transportation to and from!
It was amazing to see God working through Logan to touch the lives of the yourth in our commuity! Come be a part of it!

"Been a member since 1975! It’s like being a part of a family. I’ve made great long lasting friendships there. Our two sons were raised in and attended there! One son and family attended with their children until moving to another state!"
