UTICA, New York—About 50 young people, along with some of their parents, met in Utica Jan. 13 for a worship service and lock-in.

Katie Rounds and Laura Burke led the worship service. Affinity, a praise and worship band from Long Island, New York, provide music for the service. Band members are Danny and Jon Mayo, and Joey and Jason Underdue. Joel Sutherland, from Georgia, accompanied them.

Syracuse, New York, teens, presented a skit done to the song "Make Us One." The main point of the skit is that Jesus takes away our imperfections and sins on the cross. Performers were Suzette, Larissa and Tom Maybury, Greg Williams and Jon Gross (from Rochester, New York). Jon also gave the sermon.

From Utica, the group traveled to Rome, New York, for pizza and wings, volleyball, basketball and fellowship. This was followed by a fireside chat. Jennifer Burke led the group in icebreakers, and then they broke into smaller groups for inspirational skits about situations young people face.

After the fireside chat, the group left the gymnasium area for another part of the facility for the lock-in. Some gathered to sing songs of praise and give testimonies. Others enjoyed table tennis, foosball and fellowship.

Sunday was another day of volleyball, basketball, indoor football and swimming. The weekend came to a close with the group singing "Instruments of Your Peace." Peggy Kirk.
