The Pan de Vida youth group celebrated 3 years in ministry this past weekend. The theme was "Masterpiece", with the focus on how God has been working in their lives to create a wonderful piece of art. In preparation, the youth were divided into teams of 3 to draw their own masterpiece. As an incentive to be very creative, they were told the pieces would be judged and a prize would be given for the winner. This stirred them to really reflect and focus on making a blank piece of cardboard into a beautiful testimony that others will see. It was very interesting to see all the different approaches each group made but still resulted in true masterpieces.
The night of the celebration, a local pizza business donated all the ingredients for the youth to make their meal. The youth then had a banquet feast of pizzas and pasta salad. Afterwards there were games that involved quizzing on the messages and scriptures that they have been learning through the meetings and outreaches they have been having. They were then given an opportunity to share testimonies and do skits, dramas, worship music and other games in praise to how God has used the youth group to work in their spiritual growth and personal relationship with Jesus.
Kike then gave a message based on the theme Masterpiece. Then they each received a photo album to remind them of how much God has done in their lives through the ministry of the youth group. It was definitely an evening of celebration and motivation for the kids to continue to persevere and work hard on following God and seeking His plan in their lives.
