Barb/Dave sent me this comic about youth group attendance. It made me laugh, but as I thought about it I was really thankful for our group of students in our youth group or even our other church ministries. Our attendance is consistently higher for service activities over fun activities. During the summer, I’ll get like 17 people for Great Adventure, and 40 for putting on an urban VBS in Roosevelt. We’ll get 4 for beach day and 15 for Helping Hand rescue mission.
Maybe that’s something really admirable about Long Island – the schools really promote community service. Way to go students! (and lots of good parents that encourage loving through service)
