With things cranking back up, we also want to take some time to reflect on what God has done over the month of July. The Youth group went to Savannah, Ga July 13th-17th with leaders from all aspects of the church for River of Life. We had the privilege to meet with our work site home owners Danny and Doni and their two granddaughters. Although they may not have as much as many of us do, they had plenty of love and excitement to meet us. They felt right at home with our students and joined in on our devotion times. I often tell the students, the work we do on the mission trip is the tool we have to spread the Gospel to the home owners.
I fully believe that when we have experiences like this to be the hands and feet of Christ, it gives our Youth perspective on life and how truly blessed we are. I am so proud of our Youth, their leaders, this Church, and feel so blessed to be serving as our Youth Director.
Where have you seen God’s blessings in your life? Allow God to let this new school year be a new time to change our perspectives into looking at all the ways God has blessed us instead of where He hasn’t!
Blessings,
Derek
