Youth quakes + zones

Ezra, Gillian, Sadie, and Hannah had a wonderful time at the Youth Quake/Zone in January. We met up with youth from Messiah and St. John, Jersey Shore, and had a wonderful time!

In regard to this weekend full of faith, fellowship, and fun, our youth responded to the following questions (in no particular order:)

Describe one thing you accomplished or learned, or that made an impact on you this weekend:

I leaned that even though I’m young, I can spread God’s word.
I learned new things about God and what it would mean to people to share the word of God.
Just because I am young I still have things that I can give and I can spread God’s word.
One thing I learned is that I didn’t know that so many people take this religion more than I thought. I realized I need to spread God’s word more, so that more people can hear. I learned so much in those three days.

Overall, what did it mean for you to be in Pittsburgh this weekend?

It meant that I think people should learn BOUT God, Jesus, and how important my religion is to me.
It meant a lot to me to spend a weekend praising God and meeting friends and having fun.
To have fun and learn new things about God. It meant to have fun, meet new people and learn new things.
It meant a lot and I didn’t feel like I was there because I had to be. I was there to learn more about God and meet new people.

Our kids had a wonderful time and got a lot out of the event. They are grateful to everyone at St. Mark’s for their support, both financially and in prayer—they are truly appreciative of their church family.
