On Sunday, April 27, 2008 our WOW (Worship on
Wednesdays) Youth Group, our Associate Pastor, Cheryl Colt and Member, Ollie Nichols led the congregation in Worship with Earth Day as its theme.
Weeks of preparation allowed them to challenge us to think about God's Creation and our roles as Stewards of that Creation.
