DARE To Soar

At our DARE To Soar event on Saturday, 19 August 2017, we celebrated the Secondary One youths who had just moved on from Rock Kidz, our children‘s ministry, to DARE ministry — DARE is our youth group for secondary school students. This event marks a significant milestone in the youths‘ lives as they cross over from childhood to the youth group.

The programme consisted of two segments. In the first segment, the youths were challenged to rise up and step out of their comfort zones by completing a high element station. This activity serves as a reminder to them that they can overcome challenges with Jesus on their side. There was much rejoicing in the house as each youth crossed the obstacle course victoriously.

The second segment opened with praise and worship, followed by a short sharing of the Word from Psalm 127:3–4, by our youth pastors. Then the parents anointed their youths and prayed over them. Parents were also encouraged to bring along a gift to validate their child‘s transition into the new season.

Towards the close of the event, the youths also prayed over their parents. It was a heartwarming sight to witness parents embracing their youths, touched by our heavenly Father‘s love for them before they returned home together.
