We finished up our series Crossover Under Construction. The final “F” word for the series was Forgotten. Forgotten is one of the most unfortunate tags we can place on a student in the youth group. People can slip through the cracks. I don’t want that to be the characteristic of any of our students. God makes the promise in Isaiah 49:15-16 that He never forgets His children. In fact, we are tattooed on His hands. During the Old Testament times, slaves were tattooed or branded with their master’s name. In this passage the opposite is true, the master brands Himself with the name of the servants. God identifies with us. When God works we are on His mind. God never forgets you.
Being flawed individuals we often forget. The challenge this week is to be like God. Remember those who have slipped through the cracks. Reach out to anyone you think you may have forgotten or neglected. We want them to know God cares for them and so does the Crossover student ministry. Text, call, email, DM, tweet, do whatever you have to do reach out to make people feel remembered and not forgotten.
DON'T FORGET: This Sunday is the Corn Maze event! Students need the following items:
- Signed Permission Form
- $12 for the Admission Fee
- Some additional cash for dinner at the Corn Maze
- Please be at the church by 2:45 PM on Sunday so we can leave on time - we expect to be back by 7:30 PM for parents to pick up students from the church.
