Happy Sunday!
The first full day of the project has come to an end! Today our squads met for the first time and then headed out to local churches in the area to worship and fellowship. The participants came back bonding with their new friends!
Tonight before worship, a baptism took place. All of the participants walked to the church at the head of the road to witness a member of our cooking staff get baptized. This lady had attended a Mission Serve project two years ago and accepted Jesus into her life. The week before this project in Buckhorn, she contacted our speaker, Steve, letting him know she was ready to be baptized. Tonight, she professed her faith and went from death to life. What a great kick off for our worship tonight!
Once we returned back to the school, we continued our worship. Our message tonight continued in Acts 9:6-17 where Steve preached on obedience. Just as Jesus gave the invitation to Saul to follow him down into the city, Jesus also offers us the obedience to follow him. He challenged us to be obedient to the Lord’s plan for our life. When God calls us, He wants complete obedience from us to follow him.
We are so excited to see how God works and moves through our Mission Serve participants this week. Please continue to pray for our participants and the people they will be coming in contact with everyday in their construction sites and ministry sites! As always, send your friends and family a note through our ServeMail!
Your summer staff,
Jackson and Madeline
