JC and Lynette Araujo are excited to be returning to lead this age group in 2009 for the fourth year. They led a dynamic Jr. High group at their church in Concord, CA for several years. They also bring wisdom and experience gained from parenting and home-schooling their own eight children (ages 1 to 18), as well as coaching countless soccer teams. Your jr. highers will love their sense of fun, and are sure to be impacted by their love for the Lord.
