New post! Finally!

So I will admit this blog has gotten a little dusty. You can blame Face Book for that. However, I do need to remember that not everyone is on Facebook. So, I will try and remember to still treat those of you who are visitors, under-age teens, or parents not interested in social media to some of the youth photos and videos we put on FB. To start it off, here are some images from our Fall Fest we held in November. Enjoy!

Graduation 2009

David Hansen will be graduating from The Bellevue Home School Enrichment, today at 2:30 at Pegram Church of Christ. Friends of David and the Hansen family are invited to attend.
David has been one of the most active members of TVC Youth since the very first youth meeting in February 2006. He has participated in the youth worship team, volunteered for many service projects, and has served as a student leader. Even with his family's recent move to Birmingham, he still finds a way to attend occasional TVC Youth events and Bible studies.
David plans to attend Pratt Institute of Art & Design in New York City this fall.
David is the son of Craig and Sophia Hansen.


Tori Townsend will be graduating from Spring Hill High School this Tuesday.
Tori has been an active member of the church taking part in both the youth worship team and the adult worship team. She has participated in numerous TVC Youth service projects and has volunteered in different areas of the church.
Tori plans to take classes this fall at Columbia State. So, we are excited that we will get to have her around.
Tori is the daughter or Mark and Suzanne Townsend.

The Rescue

Last month TVC Youth took part in a world wide event called "The Rescue". The event was organized by Invisible Children as a peaceful demonstration to free the child-soldiers of Northern Uganda. Below are the photos from the event.The starting point was at Centennial Park, marked by a sign labeled "Abduction Point."

We all walked single file, through Nashville, caring a rope.



We marched over 5 miles and ended at Bicentennial Mall in front of the Capital building. This spot was known as "The LRA Camp." This is where we waited to be rescued by attracting the attention of the media, a government official, and a celebrity.

Everyone clipped photos of their self, with friends and family, which symbolized being abducted and leaving your loved ones behind.

Waiting to be rescued.

We wrote letters to our senators asking to help free the child-solders.
Whitney and Emma created a collage depicting the need to help the children in Uganda.

We were successfully rescued, but we still chose to spend the night in support of the abducted children and those who night commute for protection.

The Rescue in Nashville

This last week TVC Youth attended Invisible Children's "The Rescue", an event to raise awareness for the child-soldiers in Northern Uganda. The following video shows some of the youth members at the event:
