CYIA

Sara and Anna were given the opportunity to attend a 2 week long intensive training camp called CYIA- Christian Youth In Action- along with 67 other students...69 in all. The first week, you learned how to give a Bible lesson and tell a missionary story using pictures and not just reading it. Sara and Anna both said that it was VERY INTENSIVE! They learned how to witness using the "Wordless Book".
During the second week, they actually got to run a 5-day club. On Sunday, all the students went out and invited children and then Monday was the first club day. Anna was also given the opportunity to personally lead 2 children to Christ. Each night during the second week, you had to do a "practicum" where you say the Bible story or missionary story to a staff member. Sara graduated with a Summer Senior Missionary Certificate and Anna with a Summer Senior Missionary Certificate with Honors.
There were 18 others from Grace Baptist Church going making for a really fun time of fellowship during free time.
