Encouragement to Pray from our QYU Staff Chaplain, Bob Scrivens:
"We have, of course, just moved a day or two away from the celebration of Easter. What a glorious day Easter Sunday was! I rejoice to have seen men, women, teens and younger filing into church to proclaim the wondrous Good News “He is Risen!” As the Staff Chaplain of QYFC Youth Unlimited, my prayer is that each of the very wonderful youth workers in this ministry will be be strengthened, be filled with wisdom, be overcome by the immense love of God and be filled with the joy of the Lord WHO is our strength!" |
