Bruce the Caddie

I’d like to take this moment in Youth Ministry News to Highlight some of our Fabulous Youth Leaders here at HFUMC.

Bruce & Robin Teal have been helping in all aspects of the youth ministry at HFUMC forever (and I mean, ever). Bruce & Robin have been such a part of the youth community that their young son Alex has been deemed the “mascot” for a number of years. Next year he will actually become a member of the group, “finally” he will say. Robin & Bruce have given of their time to be on many retreats from camping trips to Warmth in Winter. They are faithful Sunday night mentors to our newly formed “Drive Group” small groups. Bruce & Robin have also taught Sunday School & CoffeeHouse on Sunday mornings for years.

The Teal’s have a care for our youth community that runs so deep they have committed & claimed as their ministry the youth of Hendersonville. They have continued to be a consistent rock through a few youth director changes and countless changes to our church. They know many of our youth & young adults in deep relationships that will sustain over a lifetime. This is a huge gift they give to our youth on behalf of our church congregation.

So, if you see the Teal’s on a Sunday morning (or a church committee meeting) give them thanks for responding to their call to ministry with our youth & young people.

shalom,
