St. Andrew UMC Youth Visit Tybee

The Northeast Cobb church's youth celebration team is performing on the Georgia coast next week.

The Youth Celebration Team from in Northeast Cobb will entertain audiences on Tybee Island June 5-7.

“This group shares the Love of God and conveys our Lord’s important messages to their audiences through the use of sign language, puppets, and voices,” said Lisa Springer, St. Andrew UMC’s director of youth ministries.

“By using their talents in these areas, they are able to leave a lasting impression on everyone who attends one of their performances. Every summer, St. Andrew organizes a variety of mission trips specifically for its youth group,” Springer said. “These trips include a Youth Celebration Team Tour, YouthWorks Mission Trip, Appalachia Service Project Mission Trip, and a Youth Praise Band Tour.”
