New Year, New Leader!



Hello Friends of Young Life Lorain County! We have some very exciting news! Throughout this past summer and fall, I had the opportunity to meet and go through our New Leader Training Plan with a student from Lorain County Community College (LCCC). Jacob Roe graduated from Elyria Catholic High School in 2014 and is currently attending LCCC, studying Physical Therapy. 

I am excited to announce that after training, interviewing with our committee, and much, much prayer, Jacob will be placed as a leader at Avon WyldLife. WyldLife club meets at Avon Middle School once a month, and our Campaigners Bible study meets once a month at Panera Bread in Avon. He will join our fastest growing ministry in Lorain County that God has been blessing in big ways. We are so thankful to add Jacob to the team! Please join us in praying for and encouraging this new leader taking part in the mission! 

Romans 10:14-15 says, "But how can they call on Him to save them unless they believe in Him? And how can they believe in Him, if they have never heard about Him? And how can they hear about Him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? 

That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!”


In Him,
@TonyA

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Students from all around NE Ohio at Fall Weekend at Camp Fitch during club We hope you had a Happy Thanksgiving and we wanted to share how thankful we are! There are so many things we are thankful for in Lorain County Young Life. We wanted to spotlight just what the Lord did at our annual fundraising Banquet and our Fall Weekend trip with high school students. Banquet Recap             The 2018 Lorain County Banquet was a great success and it couldn't have happened without our great committee & sponsors. We had a room full of adults who care about young people being loved and told about the greatest news that can be told, Jesus Christ and His desire for us. We had an interest in joining our committee and our prayer team. Banquet attendees were able to meet our awesome leaders (Blog post about them coming soon!). While we still have work to do in raising our yearly budget, we were able to raise our financial goal for the evening! Thanks to

Jack put together a team, spent time engineer
