What’s been going on with Burns Youth? To begin, we had an outing to the Riverwalk on July 4^th to watch the fireworks in downtown Augusta. Then, a group of us went to Atlanta to help roof houses, grow spiritually, meet new friends and have a lot of fun. The 2010 Metro Atlanta Project was a big success, and I just want to send a big thank you to everyone who prayed for us. Next we had a great pool party at the home of Gary and Marion Williams. It was a refreshingly laid back event amidst these high temperatures, and Marion’s hospitality and generosity were unparalleled. August will bring us into the new school year with a volunteer day at the Golden Harvest Faith Food Factory, sorting cans. We’re also gearing up for the Augusta District Youth Retreat at A H Stevens State Park, which will take place toward the end of the month. It’s good to see people who’ve been out of town, or away from the group. We’ve got an exciting new program in the works for the school year, and I pray that God will accomplish everything He wants to in our young people.
