Youth Group Summary

Sunday September 16
This past Sunday we met as a large group in the middle school room and discussed a strong topic, poverty. We touched on some of the more dramatic statistics. The one statistic that stuck out to me is more than 3 billion people live on 2 dollars a day or less. It's discouraging to think that half the world lives on such a little amount. When most of us can find 2 dollars in change in the couch or by the dryer. But as always there is hope. Next week we will talk about what we can do to help the poor. The last Sunday of the month we will be helping out at St. Marks preparing and cleaning up for the breakfast. I believe if we take things one step at a time and understand poverty we will be able to make a difference for the better.

Good posy Dan. By the way, we will be at St. Andrew's again this Sunday and meet at St. Mark's the last Sunday of the month. Can you edit the post so that we don't confuse anybody. Ooh. Maybe I can. I'll see.
