The weekend of Sabbath, September 20, 2025, the youth of Rogersville Church went on a campout organized by the Children’s Ministries Department. They enjoyed good food and sang praise and worship songs to their King under a beautiful canopy of trees He created. On Sabbath morning, they discussed future youth events, and learned more about God’s love for them. Sabbath afternoon, the children went for a short hike to enjoy more of God’s creation.
The youth went to a local pumpkin patch on October 9, 2025, to have fun getting “lost” in a corn maze. The children learned that on Earth, we all get lost, but when we work with God, we find our way, just as they found their way out of the corn maze by working together. That night, they enjoyed painting pumpkins, then roasting Big Franks on a fire. What fire would be complete without S’mores and hot chocolate, though?
The youth held their first Youth Summit church service on Sabbath, November 1, 2025, in which the youth led their own church service in the basement of their church building. They had a discussion panel about the Sanctuary the Israelites built in the Old Testament, and the symbolism of each article as well as the placement.
Children grow by doing things, and learn better when given experiences rather than just talking.
God has called all to action, whether it be caring for his literal children, or for the adults He also considers His children. The Rogersville youth learned that when people stand still and feed only themselves physically and spiritually, they become stagnant. It is their hope and prayer to have more outings and Youth Summit Sabbaths that teach them how much their church family and Savior loves them.
