A group of us from Cornerstone Church Winchendon MA departed Winchendon yesterday to fly to Florida for National Youth Convention and General Council Of the Assemblies of God 2025.

General Council is the annual gathering of all American Assemblies of God leadership for its official business meeting and National youth convention is a biannual event held in conjunction with National Fine arts, a celebration of the talent of the youngest generation of the church.

This year our church has two competitors in the Fine arts competition.

Here Pastor Amanda and James and Sadie Bauver are sending off the last texts before they get on the plane. How times have changed.

Here is the team from our church that flew together to Florida. The Hacketts are heading to General Council and Pastor Amanda and I are taking James and Sadie to National Youth Convention and Fine Arts. They are in the same place but two separate events.

The Hacketts are staying on Disney property, I think. Meanwhile a lady from our church got us into her time share for a very….very reasonable price. I don’t know what I was expecting but I didn’t think this was going to be our front door for the week. Below are some other shots from our rooms.

A huge thank you to Pam who helped us with these accommodations.
