On Thursdays around 9:00 am, the high school students are brought into a God-serving environment to talk and praise our Heavenly Father. During these forty minute services, we interact with a guest speaker that talks about God on a specific topic. Before the services, our talented and amazing worship team sings songs that lift our hands and hearts up to God. Our faithful guest speakers come from all churches from as far as Ravenna. These pastors come and talk to us about the Word of God and different stories that people in the Bible who have been faithful and have served Him.
On Thursday, October 30th, a youth pastor from Ravenna came and talked to us about how God teaches us lessons so that later on in life we will be prepared for what is coming in our lives. He also talked about when we do wrong or things that are dishonorable to God, we should remember what we have done and take it as a learning experience. When something happens and you feel like you are in the same place as you were when you did the wrong thing, don't forget that God is on your side and he will help lead you through your problems.
Every few weeks the high school students break away for a gender specific chapel. The girls and boys are separated for the forty minute service so they each can talk about how to live our lives as a man or woman. The one who leads the breakaway chapel is usually one of our teachers. They try to prepare us for how the world is going to be when we graduate so we won’t have an unexpected journey.
