On Friday February 14, our St. Sarkis Salt & Light Youth Group gathered for their second session of the season. There were over 70 youth gathered at church on this festive Valentine's Day to have fun and learn together. The lesson for the evening incorporated the theme of the day, which was Love, but also added the important element of Forgiveness that goes hand in hand with Love. Our facilitators led their breakout groups through Bible readings from Matthew 18:21-35 and Corinthians 13:4-7 and a carefully constructed discussion guide on Forgiveness and Love, prompting an interactive discussion on real-life scenarios calling for forgiveness that would be applicable to the lives of the youth. After their interactive and engaging breakout sessions, the youth gathered in the Main Hall for a hands-on Valentine's Day craft that tied in to the lessons, followed by ice cream sundaes and social time. The evening was filled with smiles and laughter all around, and was a wonderful testament to the sense of community and love that is shared among our youth at St. Sarkis Church. We look forward to seeing all the kids at our next session on Friday, March 21st.
