St. Bethany Waters
On the 2nd and 4th Sunday of each month from 5p.m. till 7:30p.m. (in general) we gather together with St. Barnabas Lutheran in Cary, IL and Bethany Lutheran in Crystal Lake to have youth led events. Adult advisers are around to help lead and direct the youth. The responsibilities of leading the events that youth have decided to create is that of the hosting congregation. That means we travel to a different church campus each time we meet. This also allows us to use the gifts of each of our facilities. Check the calendar to see when and where the next meeting is going to be.
Being youth led also allows for the youth to determine what they want to accomplish, talk about and do on a seasonal basis. This also allows for the youth to develop in leadership skills and abilities, while claiming ownership in the church.
If you have any questions please talk with Erin Taylor about this. Otherwise plan on seeing your LW friends at the next St. Bethany Waters meeting either at our campus or one of the other congregations.
