Our speaker last Sunday was
Mads Morgan, the Diocesan youth adviser. She reminded us how Christ had told us
to proclaim the news of His Love to the whole world – and as a result mission
workers had gone out to the remotest tribes on earth. But she showed us how
youth today are just like those tribes – they have their own culture – they
speak their own language – they dress in different ways – they do not behave
like "us." And there are multiple different sub-tribes – Goths,
footie fans, rockers, techies, nerds etc, each with a different culture and
different language. The Christian youth worker needs to get to know them in
detail in order to be able to share Christ's love – and it will take time.
Let's pray for our youth workers and for all the young people with whom they come into contact.
