St. Patrick’s Day is often associated with parades, wearing green, and an unfortunate amount of unwanted pinching. But what’s the real story behind the holiday? This week in LinC we’ll take a look at the life of St. Patrick and encourage teens to celebrate different cultures. Key Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 9:20-23; John 1:43-46; Acts 10:34-36. A member of the Westboro Baptist Church, an organization centered on the family of Fred Phelps, risked being shunned by her own family after experiencing kind encounters with people she opposed but who convinced her over time that she needed to change. Next week in LinC we’ll spend some time talking about how we can avoid being an enemy, even when we’re in opposition with others.
