United in Northern New England
UNITED is both a worship and fellowship opportunity, as well as a gospel arts mentoring weekend for teenagers in Northern New England. On Friday night, we gather at the Portland, ME corps to watch the Bible Bowl scrimmages, have a time of worship, and play group games. Everyone sleeps at the corps and has breakfast together the next morning. After breakfast, the students divide up into their classes where they learn about different ways they can use their artistic skills at their own corps – whether it’s through leading worship, playing a specific instrument, dance, timbrels, or even through visual arts.
When spring comes around, the students showcase their skills in a concert for family and friends, and the Praise and Worship track leads the songs they’ve been honing throughout the year. Watching the students grow and begin to realize the potential God has filled them with is incredibly rewarding, and we at the Youth Department feel blessed to be a small part of the process.
