District Blitz '09

North Central EFC Student Comference

Be in prayer for our students traveling to Duluth this weekend (leaving Friday 3:15 pm) for Districts. We have twenty kids going and three leaders. They're in for a great time with speaker Sean McDowell who seeks to reach the heart and minds of youth. Sean is author of "Ethix: Being Bold in a Whatever World" which reminds students to realize that truth should be the guiding principle for what we believe, and as a result, how we live our lives. "Jesus said the greatest commandment is to love God with all your heart, soul, and mind. If Christian teens desire to live as vibrant disciples for Jesus Christ they must learn what it means to love God with their passions, their innermost being, and to think critically with their minds." -McDowell

Students will be led in worship by popular Christian singing group of four brothers, Remedy Drive.

Glenn Olson, Director of Student Ministries, North Central District, is asking for everyone to pray specifically for this weekend. Below are the requests he sent out via email to all district churches. Please partner with others and pray.
