GENERATION SC – loving, learning and leading

Generation SC is a student-led organization sponsored by LOGOS FIRST MINISTRY.  Our desire is to be the GENERATION that seeks HIM in Psalm 24:6. 
                                                                         The SC has a dual meaning:  Seeking Christ and Student Council. 


                                The GENERATION SC mission statement:


       LOVE:   JOHN 13:35 ...  By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.  
     LEARN: 
2 TIMOTHY 2:15 ...  Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately  
                                  handling the word of truth.  
         LEAD:   
1 TIMOTHY 4:12 ... Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an 
                                  example of those who believe.

For nearly a decade, GEN SC has been diligently working to see a local Holocaust Memorial become a reality in the mid-south.  In 2010, they learned of Horn Lake Middle School’s efforts to raise 1.5 million pennies to represent the 1.5 million children who were killed in the Holocaust.  GEN SC prayed and sought the LORD’s heart to love, learn and lead in this endeavor.  By 2012, GEN SC presented  $4,000 of the pennies needed for Horn Lake Middle School to meet the goal of 1.5 million pennies. 

Once the  pennies were raised, decisions were made to memorialize the children they represented.  Architect, Doug Thornton of AREC,  designed the future plan for the memorial to hold the 1.5 million pennies.  Sculptor and artist, Rick Wienecke  - www.castingseeds.com -  cast  the centerpiece of the future memorial.  The visual of how many children were brutally murdered will be a vivid reminder of how God's Word says we are destroyed for lack of knowledge. 

As Horn Lake Middle School students transitioned into different high schools, Gen SC continued their fundraising efforts alongside the newly formed Unknown Child Foundation - www.unknownchild.org -  and raised another $25,000 to purchase the first of ten maquettes cast by Rick Wienecke to raise funds for the UCF.  Gen SC president, Zane Turner, presented the maquette to Mr. Jack Cohen at the Israel Fest in 2014.  

After more fundraising, the Lord led Gen SC to present another Holocaust survivor, Mr. Leonid Saharovici, with a smaller version of Wienecke's sculpture in 2017.   It was a very moving moment for the students as Mr. Saharovici wept in his hands, saying no one had ever done anything like that for him in his life.   Mr. Leonid passed away in November of 2018.  He is greatly missed.

On February 8, 2019, Gen SC hosted the "Have a Heart for Holocaust Banquet".  Holocaust survivor Jack Cohen was the guest speaker. Gen SC raised $9,000 for the Unknown Child Foundation in 2019 while honoring the memories of Mr. Saharovici as well as a dear friend and former leader in Renewed Moms - Kari Coudriet - who passed away in December 2018.  

On November 9, 2019... Gen SC  hosted REMEMBERING KRISTALLNACHT: the 81st anniversary as survivor Mr. Warren Kramer shared his harrowing experiences on that pre-WW2  night of broken glass.  Sadly, on November 13, 2019 Mr. Kramer took his last breath just a few days after our wonderful night of remembrance.  None of us could have imagined that would be our last time with him.  He will be greatly missed.

WHAT OUR MOMS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT LOGOS FIRST ...

This ministry has been such a sweet blessing in my life.  The Bible teaching, the ladies in my small group (who are now life long friends), our prayer time on Thursdays, and what my children receive, has been an incredible blessing.  Words can't begin to express how this ministry has impacted my life, my parenting, my marriage, and most importantly, my walk with the LORD.  Taking thoughts captive and renewing my mind, remembering who I am and where I'm seated, to walk worthy, to consider my ways, and just how holy our God is are just a small glimpse into what the LORD has taught me this year through our studies.  Spending time in the Word daily and learning His Word for myself is an amazing journey that I'll never let end!  MICHELE ELROD - mom of a seventh grader, fifth grader, third grader and two preschoolers
What a blessing Renewed Moms has been for me.  When I first joined this year, it was really just for the opportunity my girls would have to enjoy taking the classes with others.  I didn't expect much from the Bible study personally to be honest.  To my great surprise, the LORD has used this study and the fellowship of other Christian women to lead me to a spiritual awakening.  I never would have imagined how He would work on my heart and mind through this ministry.  I am just one person but this ministry has been transforming me for God's glory, and has also been helpful to my husband as we have been discussing what I've learned.  It has helped me draw nearer to God than I have felt able to in quite a while, and I am experiencing the joy of His presence again.  ANGELA GRAZIANA - mom of an eleventh grader and a first grader
