Weekend Fest rocksAbout 600 teenagers and others joined in Weekend Fest, a Christian concert featuring Tree63 prior to the Baptist General Convention of Texas annual meeting in Austin. Participants gave more than $400 for mission work through Baptist Student Ministries around the state, and numerous young people made decisions for Christ. The concert also featured several prizes. Woodlawn Baptist Church and Teri Road Baptist Church in Austin each won $500 to help pay for youth mission trips. Melanie Jaramillo of Primera Iglesia Bautista in Austin won a laptop computer, and Belle Ramey, a youth worker at Crestview Baptist Church in Georgetown, won a paid trip to next year's BGCT annual meeting in Dallas. |
