On Saturday 6 May, 400 young people descended on St Helen’s, Bishopsgate in London for Capital Youthwork’s annual event for 11-15 year olds, ‘Sorted Nano’.

This year, the theme was being rooted in Christ and the teaching (from Colossians 1 and 2) helped the young people glimpse more of who Jesus is and what he has done for them. With songs, games, talks and times of discussion in groups, those present were encouraged to remember that Jesus is fully God, the creator of all and our sufficient Saviour.

Like slugs, leaving a trail....

They were challenged as well to dwell afresh on how exciting it is to be ‘in Christ’. Few will forget the final point of application: to be like slugs (leaving a trail of thankfulness wherever we go!) Not a bad thing to be praying for the young people in your youth group this year too.
