Youth

Purpose

We exist to help youth in choosing God, encouraging each other and spreading the love to others.
Motto: from babel to lebab, from chaos to calm

Definitions

  • Babel: the chaos in our lives, like what happened at the Tower of Babel (Gen. 11) when God confused everyone’s languages, and no one could understand one another or get anything done.
  • Lebab: the peace God brings when He steps in and TURNS things AROUND, and sets them right, like at Pentecost (Acts 2), when God reversed the Tower of Babel (note “lebab” is “babel” spelled in reverse) and made it so people of all different languages could understand the dicsiples’ message about Him.

We are CHOOSING to let God take care of all the “babel” in our lives, ENCOURAGING each other by being “lebab” to one another, and SPREADING the “lebab” to others.
