RISE Program At Thompson Baptist

Pastor Mark Wyman is very pleased to announce the start of an exciting teen program, R.I.S.E. at Thompson Baptist Church.

The young people are meeting together at 6:00 p.m. each Sunday evening, at the church for a time of high intensity games, great eats and in depth studies of God's word and how it relates to teens today.

Pastor and his wife, Jenny, serving as the youth sponsors, are working with four very fine young people from Baptist Bible College and Seminary.

Three of the collegians have become Watch-Care members of the church and make the 35 mile journey, from Clarks Summit, twice a week. They come over for the Thursday night prayer meeting and all the services on Sunday.

Shannon Cooper is a Senior at the Bible college, majoring in Pastoral Counseling and hails from Elkhart, IN.

A Junior at BBC&S, Steve Kiser calls Perkasie, PA his home. Steve is a Missions major.

All the way from Juno, Alaska where her parents serve as missionaries, Katie Weimer is a Sophomore and taking a General Education program at present.

The other sophomore, Janaki Rao from Hornell, NY, is majoring in a Pre-Counseling course of study at BBC.

Special monthly outings and activities are planned for the teens in addition to the Sunday evening Programs.
