It is important to take a moment and recognize all the adults who work so hard to help our young people grow in the Lord.  From sponsoring or  chaperoning trips to leading small groups, to teaching Bible classes or simply as serving as a listening ear and a source of holy wisdom, the adults of League Street Church of Christ truly see our young people as our first mission field.  It is an honor to serve alongside you as we point our students toward Christ.  Our Tuesday Morning Prayer Breakfast will not meet during Christmas break.  We will start again January 15, 2019.
