1. Week of Adventist Youth Evangelism in Brooklyn (June 21-28 @ Spanish Central Brooklyn): The Week of Youth Evangelism in Brooklyn will take place, beginning this Saturday night, June 21 to June 28, 2008 at the Spanish Central Brooklyn Seventh-day Adventist Church located at: 130 Boerum St, Brooklyn NY, 11206-2625. The speaker for this special youth evangelism journey will be Abraham Henry.
The services will be Bilingual, the sermons will be preached in English with translation to Spanish. We encourage youth and young adults from all the churches in Brooklyn to take advantage of this spiritual experience. In order for the week to be successful, youth and young adults must bring their friends, colleagues, and family members with them, those who are not Christians or have not been baptized yet, must attend. This will not be a regular week of prayer, it is a week of youth evangelism; where young people, together with the preacher will work so more young people will accept Jesus and be baptized.
There will be another Week of Youth Evangelism in Brooklyn; it will be announced as soon as we have all the details. The AY Coordinators and several pastors in Brooklyn are working on it as we speak.
