In the beginning was the Word...And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. John 1:1,14.
(logos is a transliteration of the Greek λόγος, which means word)
Welcome to LOGOS:
developing genuine and lasting relationships between young people and Jesus Christ, between young people and their pastors, parents, other adults of the congregation, and their peers.
Purposes of LOGOS
-
To create an understanding and desire in young people for accepting Christ as Lord and Savior;
-
To develop intelligent, active, and loyal membership and leadership in the church;
-
To give worthwhile study, wholesome recreation and opportunities for service, all bound up in a true Christian fellowship;
-
To develop the kind of Christians who are able and willing to communicate their faith and to assume personal responsibility in assisting in the building of Gods kingdom on earth.
LOGOS is not a substitute for, or a replacement of, standard programs of Sunday School and other Christian nurture programs of the church. Rather, it is another unique area of Christian nurture and a strong enhancer to the total program of the church.
LOGOS enables a local church to offer its young people the positive aspect of summer conference, but on a weekly basis. In the context of a commitment based, disciplined and structured program, young people enjoy Christian fellowship through creative recreational activities, participation in choir/worship, group study of contemporary and Biblical values, and through sharing a meal together.
LOGOS also provides an opportunity to explore ones identity in a Christian environment. Pastors and other congregational leaders can become friends, as well as counselors and teachers. Not only does LOGOS meet the needs of youth, the program is a valuable tool for the family involvement and renewal, as parents and other members of the church are drawn into active participation.
