Once or twice a month, the church youth group has a Saturday evening activity. The teens ("Ados" in French) invite friends from school or their neighborhood to come play games, eat, sing and pray with them. It's always really fun, and we've had 20 to 30 kids almost each time. For some of them, this is the only contact they have with a church.As CEMists, we help Philippe set things up, organize the activities and games, and clean up. Of course he usually does most of the work, but we'll get to take more responsibilities as time goes on. We also have a blast just spending time with the teens. So far I haven't found one who could eat more than me or beat me at arm wrestling (those wimps).
