Sayre, Oklahoma,
teen girls in National
Youth Service Day

SAYRE, Oklahoma—April 12 was National Youth Service Day, and the teen girls of the Circle of Love Fellowship did their part in serving the community and the church. The girls helped to serve 50 people a lunch of chili hot dogs and chips provided by the Sayre Chamber of Commerce for the annual Trash Off Day. Women of the church provided dessert.

Many prison inmates and guards helped pick up trash. After lunch, they continued picking up trash, and Circle of Love conducted its worship service. Teen member Valerie McMurtry and her friend, Kennan Daughtry, led a discussion Bible study on each member’s favorite Bible verse and each person’s Bible hero. The teens led praise and worship.

"This was one of our outreach programs to help the community and to let people know we are here to serve them," Pastor Ben West said. "Mayor Jack Ivester thanked our group for our help in providing a place to gather and a place to eat."

Nancy Sanders of the Sayre Chamber of Commerce said, "Your involvement was a blessing to us."
