Figuring out your life with God can feel similar to putting together a puzzle. You move along, uncovering bits of your relationship one piece at a time. The whole picture of you and God begins to emerge as you fit pieces together.
The Young People’s Ministry Council is providing students and their leaders four opportunities to fit faith pieces together. Our Bits & Pieces Events will help attendees fit together pieces of community fellowship, personal leadership, service to others, and ongoing discipleship with the goal of uncovering and building a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
Join us for one or all four FREE events held throughout the Susquehanna Conference from September to April.
