We host a monthly service we call "Inspire Night." We love to bring in various speakers and artists that encourage our church family and inspire them to love God and make Jesus famous! One of the events we host annually is our "Back to School Blessing." We love watching parents and grandparents lay hands of their kids and impart spiritual blessing as they prepare to go back to school.
This year we brought in a wonderful friend who specializes in resourcing Kids Ministry. Yancy travels America performing at "Little Praise Parties" - leading kids and families in praise and worship. She also writes, produces and distributes worship resources for Kids Ministry.
Yancy was in my youth group when she was fifteen. She was an amazingly talented young woman with a dream of becoming a worship artist. I saw so much potential in her. It was obvious God would use her in a mighty way! I remember telling her, "Yancy, if I had a record label I would sign you in a heartbeat! If I had a promotion company I would sign you immediately. I don't have anything like that, but what I do have is a weekly youth service and a band and I want you to do your first concert right here!" She did. She rocked it! And she never stopped. I'm so proud of this young lady!
