A fellowship and its offerings

Independence day this year gave me an opportunity to enjoy the fellowship of the youth of my church.
I have been a member of this church since i was born and being associated with it has not only given me the privilege to help in its activities but also to learn from those experiences.Today I can definitely say that each of these visits to my church has been a blessing and this particular one, on our independence day, was no different.
I have now come to believe that the youth group in our church is one of the best place's to be for people who have just come off their teens and are entering into their adulthood.People like me.Why?perhaps most importantly because of its members, who comprise of people from a range of age groups, who neither are father like serious figures nor like your clueless and rebelling teenage types.
This mix of characters has led to a much better adaptability among the members of the group and in this process helped everyone to grow comfortably. The banter and the snacks which usually come free with these priceless words of wisdom-either from the priest or from fellow members- is a big hit within the group and surely an effective way to keep up the enrollment.Triviality aside, basically everyone in the youth group is experimenting with something different in their lives and sharing such experiences with others helps to form different perspectives, which i truly believe helps a person to evolve.
This fellowship, like all the ones before had a lot to offer and certainly left us to ponder till we meet the next time.
