Saturday night at the closing worship featured a Christian rock band called Skillet. The youth truly enjoyed their music, but for Pastor John it was a bit on the loud side. Below is a short you-tube video that describes some of the impact the Gathering has had on Detroit
Sunday morning was closing worship. The house band continued to lead us in joyous singing, but an added treat was a Gospel Choir from Detroit. Worship included confession and absolution, scripture reading, a sermon by Bishop Elizabeth Eaton and communion for 30,000 participants. At the end of the worship they announced that next Youth Gathering will be in Houston, TX in 2018.
After an exciting morning, our youth packed up our two vans and headed to Chicago for the second part of the mission trip: a week of service with YouthWorks in the Hemosa Neighborhood of Chicago.
