Youths On A MissionFor God
Theyouths took time off from doing community services to pose forthe cameras.
On an apparent mission for God, the pre-teengroup at the Boatswain Presbyterian Church dedicated a few hours,two Fridays ago, to cleaning their community, under the supervisionfrom older folks. Armed with gloves and other gardening tools,they chopped and cleared weeds and other plants that had over-grownthe basketball court.
With the assistance of Church Elders andDeacons, they also transformed a part of the basketball courtinto a volleyball court, and were back the following day (Saturday)to do the painting. Still not satisfied, they went to rake leavesfrom a resident's yard.
Said the kids, "the court belongs tothe church which makes it a service for God. Also, it (the court)is used by the youths of the district so we are doing a communityservice."
The kids were highly praised for a job welldone.
The group is planning a trip to Little Caymanduring the summer holidays and needs funds to cover their expenses.They are asking anyone who has 'odd jobs' for 11- 13-year-olds(who will be supervised) to call 949-4936 or write to P.O. Box351 West Bay.
