Consider this very important point: Your church needs you! I’m not suggesting that if you didn’t go to church every week or if you didn’t participate in your youth group, that the church would have to close its doors … that’s not likely. What I am suggesting is that for the past 2,000 years, the church has needed its youth to be a part of the life of the community.

You are a living reminder that the church has a future … not just because eventually you’ll be older, but because the seeds of faith that grow within you will nurture the church in decades to come. This doesn’t mean, however, that you have to wait to take an active role in your church until you’re older. Rather, it means that you have an important place now as you participate in all those practices and activities that make the church a vibrant place to be. Your church needs you!
