Dear Berean Layman in Christ,

We the Northern Missionary Baptist Church WMU will host a City Wide Youth Revival. The dates are August 5-7, 2015, 7-9 pm nightly. Please see attached Flyer. We are asking each church to commit to bringing at least 5 youth or young adults each night. We have also be contacted the WMU Presidents and will be contacting the youth directors because we need everyone’s your help.

With the situation in Ferguson and the amount of Crime/Deaths in the St. Louis area it is time for us to step up and show our young people that there is a better way to live. We have young people who are living for Christ and it is time to highlight them. But we can’t do that, if our young people are not present to see, hear and participate.

Our plan is for young people to run the whole service each night from Praise and Worship to The Benediction. We have young ministers bringing the word each night. We will have youth choirs providing the music each night. Junior ushers will greet us at the doors. We plan to provide sandwiches/snacks for those present before the services begin.

A Youth Explosion is to be held Saturday, August 8, 2015. This is a chance for the young people to display their gifts and talents in their own way. If you have young people that will like to participate in the Youth Explosion, please let us know. All are welcome. The Services will climax with a Consecration Service on Sunday, August 9, 2015 at 3 pm. We are asking all that can to please dress in white on that Sunday afternoon. The choir will consist of those that have participated in the revival and wish to sing. The songs will be popular songs that everyone should know and no rehearsals will be required.

Please, plan now to include your young people in this momentous occasion. More information will be forthcoming. Also, please know that everyone is welcome regardless of denomination. Feel free to contact any member of the planning committee if you have any questions.

Yours in Christ Jesus,

Cheryl Stubbs, WMU President Alfreda Wilbon, Young People Director
