Agape Fellowship July 2010

On Wednesday, July 21, the Family Life Center hosted the Agape Fellowship gathering. The participants from the Summer Enrichment Program performed what they have learned during the recreation time from Session I and the MADD (Music, Art, Dance and Drama) camps of Session II.

If you attended, you were blessed by how these students have developed their minds and talents all in an effort to praise God. I hope you enjoy the video.
