The Ballston Journal featured our ecumenical youth event:
The pastors in Ballston Spa are trying to start fires. No, they haven’t become pyromaniacs; they’re hoping to ignite spiritual fires in village teenagers.
Ignite, a youth movement that is not affiliated with one specific church, kicked off April 1 with a gathering that featured free food, a live band and an “epic” game of Twister. About 50 teens attended the event at Christ Episcopal Church, according to First Presbyterian pastor David Bennett.

So far six churches are participating in the movement: First Presbyterian, Christ Church, First Baptist, United Methodist, Alliance Church and St. Mary’s.
