Even though Lads to Leaders & Leaderettes is directed at youth, this is not just a youth program.  It is a congregational program.  Using the Bible standard of the old teaching the young, adult mentors assist the youth in training in various areas such as scripture memorization, Bible reading, speech preparation and presentation, debate, Bible bowl and song leading.  This gets the entire congregation involved and brings about a spirit of unity. 

      Brother Johnson will conduct the Adult Bible Class in the Auditorium  giving an overview of the Lads to Leaders & Leaderettes program and how our congregation can utilize this program.  He will, also, conduct a two-hour workshop for all families and members interested in being a part of this program.  This workshop will not be a “decision making time,” but an informational and interest-gauging time.

      Lads to Leaders & Leaderettes is a sound and time-tested program that has been successful at dozens of congregations with thousands of kids.  Our elders and I believe that Central can make this program a success here, too.  Let’s all make it a priority to be at the building for Bible class, worship, and the workshop on the 8^th of June, so that we can begin a conversation that will lead to our young people becoming great Christian leaders.

Grace and Peace, Jonathan
