Why I Stopped Going to Youth Group (and Why I Started WTY)

Welcome back to WTY! I mention the basics of why I started WTY in my Qs&As tab, but what I didn't go into was why I'm so passionate about this. And youth group has a very big part in that. For my non-Christian readers, you may be wondering "what's a youth group"? A youth group is basically all of the youth of a church (ages vary, but mine is 13-18 year olds) gathering on a day (mine is Sundays) and playing and hanging out at the church with a lesson from the youth pastor (a pastor who specializes in corralling teenagers, basically).

Enjoy! - EJ ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Hi everyone, I’m Lavender Bleu! Before we get around to the important stuff (which is why you’re here) I figure I ought to introduce myself a little more. As I already said, I’m Lavender Bleu. I normally don’t blog about this kind of thing (my own blog is about writing) but I really love what E. J. is doing, and she was nice enough to let me guest post, so here I am! ^-^ This is pretty much a response to her post about youth group, more or less, it’s to help contrast her experience with mine. So! Let’s get to what you ...
