Day 3 at TeenStreet! Boys and Girls day! RAG race! What a day!
This morning, the boys met first in the main hall while the girls had their small group time. The boys looked at Timothy, Silas and Philip in the book of Acts and came up with three things: focus on Jesus, no shortcuts and that we need each other.
Then the girls were in the main hall (and the boys did small group). They looked at three women in the book of Acts: Lydia, Mary (the mother of Jesus) and Tabitha. Based on these women and the testimonies of the three speakers, the girls learnt how important community with one another – sisterhood – is, that DUNAMIS is with them and that nothing is impossible with God.
The afternoon was colourful and loud – RAG race! Shortly after 3pm, the starting gun sounded and hundreds of runners – teenagers and adults – set off. They completed lap after lap in beautiful summer weather and were loudly cheered on and supplied with water by the rest of the TeenStreet community. As not only the runner with the most laps or the most donations wins a prize, but also the best costume, you could see Vikings, caterpillars, astronauts, aliens, a suit wearer and many other creative outfits. We’ll find out tomorrow how much money was raised and who won a price.
After another good Throne Room, there was also plenty of time for fellowship, spontaneous worship times, fun food, sport and an exclusive insight into the new Jesus film.
