'What really happens to our faith Monday through Saturday?' asks Grania Farrow, a youth leader from Mortlake with East Sheen. It's a question that was also put by 'Altitude' at Christchurch in East Sheen on Sunday 3 March.

'Altitude' is a group who organise youth worship events in different churches 3 times a year attracting over 100 young people from Richmond.

The evening opened with doughnuts and drinks and upbeat worship music lead by the band. Short drama sketches, video and film clips illustrated ways in which we might stray during our every day lives from doing what we hear in church on a Sunday.

A stick of rock helped show us how we should all aim to have Jesus running right through our lives. Our lives are compartmentalised, into school/work life, home life, social life and then our church life on a Sunday. What may not be allowable in our eyes on a Sunday, we might happily do when we're out on a Saturday night. We were challenged by searching questions such as: 'Is it ever right to tell a white lie?'

So how can we make the right choices so that we live up to what we hear in church on a Sunday morning? When faced with a choice or a decision to make, to know what's BEST ask yourself:

1. What does the Bible say?
2. Does it Encourage my faith?
3. Is it a Secret?
4. Test it by talking to other Christians.

We finished the evening by making our own responses to what we had heard and seen during the evening. We were invited to sign up to acknowledge that some of the ways we choose to behave don't please God - and to promise to 'fix' our minds to do better.

'Altitude' is also offering a training session for being part of a worship hand on Saturday 13 April (2-5pm) at St Stephen's, East Twickenham. Interested for your parish? Contact Altitude Worship Network, c/o St Stephen s Church Office, 30 Crown Road, Twickenham TW1 3EE.

The next youth worship event is on 7 July, venue to be announced.
