Sharing Pilgrimage 2010
November 12–14, 2010, Soapstone sent 54 youth and 12 adults to Pilgrimage, the annual gathering of North Carolina Conference Youth. Over 5400 youth and adults from across the conference joined together this year for incredible worship, a wonderful house band (which included our own Davis Plunkett), and challenging messages shared by keynote speaker Bart Campolo.
On Saturday afternoon during the free time we worked with Stop Hunger Now at Methodist University to package meals. The message for the weekend, represented by the Pilgrimage theme With One Voice, echoed our Youth Ministry Theme for 2010-2011, Spread the Love. Even the scripture our youth have chosen for this year was read from the stage as part of Mr. Campolo’s message. John 13:34-35 says, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another By this all men will know that you are my disciple, if you love one another.”
Pilgrimage participants were challenged to do two things, find someone who you know who needs to be loved like Christ loves and love them and then find a concept person that needs to be loved and do the same thing. What a powerful way to tie our year together!
