About Us
Hi, my name is Sidney Leasure and I am the Youth Pastor at Little River Baptist Church. Let me tell you a little about ourselves.
God’s Word tells of many stories of people doing great things for God’s Kingdom. David, Jeremiah, Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-nego, and Mary (Mother of Jesus). One thing in common with all these great people are they were all teens when God used them. Even eleven of the disciples were teens. Peter was the only one that had to pay a Temple tax. God can and will use young people for His Kingdom. Our goal is to bring today’s youth to the saving knowledge of Christ. Then we want to see our youth grow in His Word. Finally, we encourage our students to live out a Godly life not just in church but in their homes and school and to share the message of God’s love.
We encourage our youth group to be a family of love and accountability. We have fellowship time with drinks and snacks, prayer time, Bible drills, game time and a Bible lesson. We also do a monthly outing with the highlight of the year being summer camp. We keep parents updated with weekly updates and all parents are invited to sit in on lesson time and to attend any event if they choose to. We encourage parents to participate as much as they want.
