Youth Summit

575 West Pike Street,Lawrenceville GA 30043

16 July, 2022

Description

Our youth are among the most prize possessions that we have as a nation. With the right guidance, support and role models they will become our teachers, doctors, engineers, ministers, presidents, governors and other needed occupations of service in our society. Most importantly many will become parents of children of their own. In order to have proper order and sustainability as a nation (Isaiah 60:12, Romans 13:1-8), it is paramount that we not only properly educate today's youth but also instill moral values in them (Proverbs 22:6. Hebrews 12:5-14). As a country we can no longer sit back and wait for someone else to deal with the issues facing today's youth. In this village, every child is our personal responsibility. An investment of time, encouragement, money and love of any child is an investment in the betterment of our communities and ultimately our world. Please understand that this need is bigger than our law enforcement officers, teachers, preachers, government and even many parents. Join with us in making a difference for good in the lives of our children. In the wake of so much crime, violence, dysfunction and misguidance among many of our youth the community has joined forces with College Planning TODAY Services to reach our youth. This event will be held on Saturday July 16th, 2022, from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm at Hangoutz located at 575 W Pike St #19a, Lawrenceville, GA 30046. There will be "Group Talk" and sessions on subjects such as: How to address "peer pressure" conflict resolution and social media?Why should you choose friends and company you keep wisely?What is the purpose of dating along with some do's and don'ts?Do you understand the value of life and your own self value?When to remove yourself from toxic situations and relationships?How to prepare for a life of purpose (educationally, financially and spiritually)?
