Spring Break 2010
What a WEEK! It is such a huge privilege and blessing to be able to serve the community that God has placed us in. This past week we worked with the Village of South Holland to provide a safe and fun filled week of activities for Spring Break. I can safely say that this week proved to be all that and then some. We had over 115 students each day and even had to turn parents and students away because we had intended to cap the participation at 100 students. Each day we had over 100 junior high and high school students enjoying activities here at our church! Can you imagine a church where we literally had that many young people pressing to get in the doors early each day! I can admit that the week was not geared to be a time to proselytize, yet it is good knowing that these young people are now familiar with the building and our hopes and prayer is that they will come visit and bring their families to a worship service here.
The week ended with our church hosting the Youth Hip Hop night from Spirit of God Fellowship. This combination allowed us to have a youth event that could speak into these young hearts. I did see a few of the youth that had been here through the week in attendance. My hope and prayer now is that after the week of fun and games and the night of spoken word, rap and a heart wrenching message from Dexter, that these young hearts might be impacted with the love of Jesus. While I am physically exhausted from all that has taken place I can yet sit back and enjoy the incredible opportunities that God continues to provide for us to do His work here on earth.
All in all I have to say…This was a good day!
