July 23rd, 2014. We joined in a youth worship with local kids and the youthworks program that stays in First Presbyterian Church in Jamaica with us. The worship was unlike anything we had ever experienced. Two men named Army Regime & Watt led our groups in worship. We were blown away by the empowering raps about God. A group of local kids performed a step routine to inspire the feeling of strong faith and love for our God. We were enlightened by their stories of hardship, poverty and struggle that they had to deal with growing up in the projects of Jamaica. The stories infected our minds and made us realize why we are here doing God's work. After the worship, a few of our youth went to talk to the leaders. Anytime we would thank them for their inspiring recollections, they would say, "Don't thank me; all of the glory goes to God." It was amazing to see the amount of gratitude they gave to our God. The service inspired all of our youth to finish this week with strength, faith and love for the people of New York and our loving and eternally wonderful God.
