'23 NCYC

I cannot express how blessed and privileged I am to witness watching teens grow closer to Christ and to be filled with the Holy Spirit. The teens inspire me to be more open, to try new things (macaroni and cheese gummies??!!, thanks Abby!), to take risks for myself and for them. If I’m in and willing to kneel longer, dance silly, be a bit crazy, pray out loud even when I’m unsure; then they will do the same. The teens in NCYC Indianapolis were respectful, kind, so silly, and brought me more joy then I could imagine. The memory that will be in my heart forever is when the Youth Ministers were asked to come down to the stage so the crowd could acknowledge them. The OLP teens and chaperones (my friends!) cheered and prayed for me. In a crowd of over 10,000 teens, I heard their love and prayers as they championed ME! Thank you all for this moment and this amazing NCYC experience. How unbelievably blessed I am! -Mrs. Stacy
