Last Friday’s Prayer & Praise Night at Templo Laramie was incredible! Over 170 youth packed into Laramie’s chapel (and parking lot!) and took part in a worship service with many unique components.

We heard a Justice Minute about the AIDS pandemic and a testimony from Jaclyn Davisson about her time in Chile. We had a time of praise and worship and introduced a new melody to “Behold the Lamb” (SASB #107). We had a testimony time where each group who participated in I’ll Fight Day gave a great report about their Corps group. We looked into the story of Jesus “healing the deaf and mute man” from Mark 7:31-37 (which included a scripture reading from Johnny Cash, a story about my speech impediment, a video from American Idol, great acting by Dave Shay and Steve Rivero, and a challenge to “BE OPENED” to hearing God’s voice and speaking clearly in His name). It was a really great night!

Don’t miss the next Prayer & Praise Night and Youth Encounter, February 9-10 at Camp Wonderland. P&PN begins at 8pm!
