We are so very blessed to be a part of a wonderful church family at Otter Creek. One of the many ways God touches us through Otter Creek, is through our amazing Youth Group.
Colton's group of 7th grade boys (his Covenant Group), meets in different homes twice a month to "play", have dinner, play some more and then spend some time in devotional and prayer. His group is lead by two college students (who grew up at Otter Creek and went all the way through the youth group themselves) and one dad (whose sons aren't even in Y.G yet). Tonight they met at our house... activities of choice were "Rambo", air hockey and the always popular, basketball. 5 pounds of pulled pork barbeque were devoured, along with 25 buns, baked beans, 2 bags of chips, 2 large containers of strawberries, a few carrots, and 3/4 of a cake... and they're only 12 and 13 years old!
This group of boys is pretty amazing - with pretty amazing parents. What great friends for Colton to walk through life with... we truly are blessed.
Colton loves Youth Group. He loves Covenant Group. We are so thankful to be a part of a church family that has helped to develop in him a love for church and a passion for God. The seed is still small right now - as it is in all of our children - but it is a joy and an honor to be able to watch these seeds of faith as they are watered and nurtured in each of our children through this body of faith.
