Tri-Parish
Youth activities for August
The sun may be scorching hot as the rays of heat spread throughout
the earth but we gather in praise and worship because of the gifts Gods
has shown us throughout these days. August brings with it a chance to thank
God for the gifts of family barbeques, warm evening walks, camping trips,
cool rivers, and extra time to spend with family and friends. It is here
in the midst of the heat and warmth that God has made his presence known.
So I encourage you to embrace this last month of God's graciousness that
is present through the summer sun and remember to thank Him for everything,
because in everything He is present. We just need to look. . . .
