Teens representing four American Baptist Associations gathered together at Mt.Zion retreat center in Roaring Branch, PA and were inspired to gather the strength to make a difference.  Pastor Scott Warren from Muncy Baptist was our speaker and chose as the theme, "YOU CAN CHANGE THE WORLD!"   His words were extremely challenging and empowering.  Using scripture from John 14, Pastor Scott zeroed in on what it means when Jesus said that in His name we can do even greater things - things we can't even imagine. We were blessed to have our own Praise and Worship team back to lead our music and prayer times.  This group is made up of young adults, from as far away as Virginia and D.C.,  who used to be regular Winter Weekend attenders when they were in high school youth groups.

    Interest groups used art, drama, signing and music as a part of our Sunday morning worship time. Testimonies were shared and stories were told of how some are already working to make a difference for Jesus in their schools.  Old friends were happy to see each other and new friends were made.  Many will be happy to see each other at the Lock-In in Williamsport on Feb. 19 and at our summer camps at His Thousand Hills in Wellsboro. Thanks to the great youth leaders who come and help us at MT. Zion each year!
