At New Life, the next generation is our future.

As we step into May, we have transitions on the mind. As our graduates step into the next phase of their journey, our younger ones are looking to the next grade in their academic career, while the rest of us are watching the weather trying to figure out what season is supposed to be coming next!

While all that’s happening, I want to give you a glimpse behind the scenes of how we are preparing the next generation of campus leaders through a new training initiative called Sweet Week. Our upcoming crop of student leaders are stepping away for a 5 day retreat this week, geared toward providing a fun, quality environment where student leaders are equipped with the skills they need to create strong, thriving Home Group communities for this next school year (and beyond).

Would you join me in praying for God to bless all of these important transitions?
