Talk about one-upmanship. I was once looking at some computers in a store when I noticed I was standing next to a youth leader of a nearby Church. He said: “Your youth is going strong! I looked in one night. But you have all the local riff-raff!” He said: “Ours is a civilised group. But then, we have a lot more supervision. And we have a programme.” OBSERVATION: Well ... OK. In fact there was method in our madness. But we were where the spiritual action was, which made it all the more of a privilege to have these youth. One minister said that having riff-raff was “a major success” in itself. I think there were close to 40 on our books.
