12 years ago

    HOULTON — The New Year was ushered in with style as local youth and youth leaders met at Military Street Baptist Church on New Year’s Eve. The seventh annual event saw an evening filled with games, give-aways, good food, a photo booth, and a lot of hanging out and interaction.

    Just before midnight, Jaclyn Hodgkins led some worship songs and challenged the youth present to “have guts” as they live out their walk with the Lord.
