Encounter

Night of Worship series concludes tonight at Grace Church

Grace Evangelical Church in Fayetteville will host the final Encounter

Night of Worship event tonight from 7:30 � 9 p.m. Aimed primarily at

high school and college students, the event will conclude the Encounter '04

summer series that began June 2.

"The purpose of this summer ministry event was to provide an opportunity

for the body of Christ to come together and join hearts and lives to

the glory of God," said Jason Lohse, Encounter Now co-founder. "God

has birthed this vision in the hearts of many student ministers and workers

to see a greater Kingdom work in our area."

The night of worship has been described as an energy-filled worship

experience designed to appeal to high school and college students. Some

300 students per week have been gathering for a time of worship, engaged

prayer and relevant teaching.

"Students have been encouraged to deepen their faith and strengthen

their walk with Jesus Christ," added Randy Bruno, director of the

Atlanta Area Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Encounter Now co-founder.

This summer's guest speakers have all been ministers from Fayette

County churches and have included: Jason Lohse, New Hope Baptist Church;

Keith Brown, Crosspointe Community Church; Matt Blackmon, Flat Creek

Baptist Church; Jim Battles, Fayetteville First Baptist Church; Jim Garner,

Peachtree City First Baptist Church; Nikki Rach, Christ our Shepherd

Lutheran Church; John Warnock, Braelinn Baptist Church; and Steve Geyer,

Heritage Christian Church. Tonight's speaker will be Andrew Hill

from Grace Evangelical Chuch.

Lohse added, "The summer theme was 'Christ In Me.' Our

desire has been to help students understand who they are now because

of Christ and how they can live from this new identity to the glory of

God."

Grace Evangelical Church is at 164 Flat Creek Trail, between Ga. Hwy.

54 and Tyrone Road, about halfway between Fayetteville and Peachtree

City. All high school and college students in the area are encouraged

to attend.
