A Word from the Young Adult Team
Young adults continue to be a vibrant, growing, and vital part of the Tabernacle Baptist Church family. The Young Adult team exists to encourage young adults to build close relationships with one another and to engage them in the existing ministries and activities of the Church.
The Young Adult Team hosted several fellowship events during 2013. A large group of us gathered for the Super Bowl last February—some to watch the game itself and others just to spend quality time with old and new friends. About a dozen attended a workday in the spring at Camp Alkulana, where they painted the “Big Lodge” and did yard work in order to help the camp get ready for its summer season. A handful of folks went apple picking again this fall at Carter Mountain Orchard. And a large group of us gathered in December for our annual Christmas party, where there was much laughing and silliness during a boisterous white elephant gift exchange.
While the Young Adult team tries to organize several “official” events during the course of the year, we believe that the best, most meaningful connections happen organically and often spontaneously. In order to help foster these connections, the Young Adult Team maintains a fairly active Facebook page where people can connect with one another, ask questions, and invite people to events they are attending. Fellowship, discipleship, worship, and service opportunities are frequently posted there.
Young adults continue to support children and youth activities. They also meet regularly for discipleship activities and small groups. Young adults participate regularly in worship, serve as deacons and committee members, and continue to support the life and mission of the church. We find that Tabernacle is a place where we feel called to serve, to plunge into the deep waters of faith, to offer our best to God in worship, and to find kindred spirits to share our lives with.
As we look to the future, we are excited about how we see God leading us. Tabernacle is growing, and new faces continue to show up regularly. The Young Adult Team hopes to continue supporting the life church by helping people feel connected and welcome. We hope to do even more in the year to come to promote fellowship, mission, and discipleship opportunities for young adults as we seek to follow Christ in the world.
