We are excited to welcome back the fabulous YMT duo for this summer: Zeke Barton and Jordan Manning! They have grown up in our church and are active members of the Youth and College Family! We are looking forward to welcoming them back and can’t wait for our youth to spend the summer with them! Please see their letter below. —Sarah Dunn, Youth Ministry Assistant
“Hello FBG friends and family! We are so excited to be returning as the Youth Mentoring Team again this summer! Last summer we had an incredible time, and with more experience, we hope to curate another unforgettable summer alongside our Youth Family. We learned about how to manage and create a safe space for our youth last year, and we are eager to continue our work this time around. Since we both grew up in the First Baptist Youth Group, we have both made so many fond memories through the program. To this day, we still tell stories from trips like Unidiversity, mission trips, and working with local organizations during Mission Possible. Over this coming summer, we hope to create a space in which our Youth Family will have the same opportunity. We are forever grateful for the experiences we had as youth and are so excited to have another opportunity to cultivate amazing experiences for the youth again this summer!”
—Jordan Manning and Zeke Barton, Youth Mentoring Team
