Brethren Volunteer Service is persons giving their time and skills, like Santa's helpers, to help a world in need. It is a way for people to work at issues greater than themselves, recognizing that their efforts may not immediately solve deep-rooted problems, but can be part of on-going work for justice, peace, goodwill, and the integrity of creation.

Resources for Youth Sunday
Resources for Youth Sunday
Again, the Youth and Young Adult Ministries Office has developed worship resources for National Youth Sunday. A poster was mailed to each youth advisor. If you would like additional copies, please call 800-323-8039, ext. 289.
The theme for 2008 is “By the Manner of Their Living” from Colossians 3:12-15. All of the resources for the annual theme this year are located on our website for you to download. This is an effort to save the cost of printing materials, and yet still make them available for you to use on National Youth Sunday, May 4, 2008.

300 Food Panties
Letter from the Youth Cabinet
November 2007
Greetings!
As the National Youth Cabinet for 2007 and 2008, we just wanted to introduce ourselves as well as let all of you know what we have been doing. We are extremely excited about the Church of the Brethren and youth ministry and we are lucky to be able to bring the 300th celebration to the youth of our denomination. In order to do this, we have composed a list of a few things that we would like for youth to try in honor of our 300th year as a church. Hopefully, you will look over them and decide which one your youth group would like to start in 2008:
We have also decided on our theme this year to go along with our anniversary. It is “By the Manner of Their Living.” We wanted to remind the youth that the Church of Brethren is to be known by the manner of their living: peacefully, simply, and together. The verses we have chosen to go along with this theme are Colossians 3: 12-15. For resources and further information, including Youth Sunday materials, refer to the COB website.
We will be praying for you and your ministry. Please pray with us!
With Love,
Turner Ritchie- South Central District
Elizabeth Willis- Southeastern District
Heather Popielarz- Michigan District
Seth Keller- Southern Pennsylvania District
Joel Rhodes- Middle Pennsylvania District
