The Cherethites were the equivalent of the secret service of today. They were to protect King David with their life! They needed to have certain traits; they were to be Honorable, Truthful, Loyal, and Brave. These traits are what we believe the young people of today need to have in order to help promote The Kingdom of God. They also will need prayer to help them stand for the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ, in their schools, and in their community.
We all love our awesome youth group here are some opinions from the youth and leaders at our church:
1. I love the youth group. It feels more like a family than a group of teens and leaders. It is really nice to have a group of fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. It is nice to have the support and accountability to continue growing in Christ. I love to go to youth group and I feel really sad when I can't make it. Also I love our activity days when we go and help others in the comunity or have our small parties-It is nice to help others and work doesn't seem so hard with friends.

Our Verse
"...be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore,
having girded your waist with truth,
having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and
having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace....
taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one....
take the helmet of salvation, and
the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
- praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints."
Ephesians 6:10-18
