by Jimmy Allen -- Hartford (CT) — Saturday, 07 February 2009 10:19The Hartford Church’s Teen Ministry took center stage to lead our worship in song, prayer, and preaching the Word. The service focused on the armor of God and four teen men preached on this subject with passion and humor. Will Walter and Jason Gingerich stepped up to study the text (Ephesians 6:10-18) and then exegete the passage for the approximately 400 participants at the two services.
The early service began with rousing singing and was highlighted early on by the teen women performing “Pocketful of Sunshine,” most recently sung at the Women’s Night at the Town Hall. (Click here to see video.)
