A dozen youth from the First Baptist Church of Cantonment spent their Spring Break Wednesday helping the youth at the Florida Baptist Children’s Home in Pensacola.

The youth worked to clean out from around an overgrown pond on the children’s home property. The pond will be used for fishing and to provide activities for the young people that live at the home.

“We had a great time serving the Lord. All of these youth are out on Spring Break this week, so they could have chosen to be doing many other things,” said Drayton Smith, associate pastor at the First Baptist Church of Cantonment.

    THIS IS THE TYPE OF THINGS WE LIKE TO SEE FROM OUR CHILDREN. I’M GLAD TO SEE THAT THEY ARE BEING TAUGHT TO DO FOR OTHERS. TODAY IT SEEMS LIKE IT HAS TURNED INTO A “ME,ME,ME” WORLD. NICE TO SEE THAT SOME PEOPLE REMEMBER HOW TO DO FOR OTHERS AS WELL. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!
