Volunteer letter 6

To God be the glory. This year has been already been a great blessing. In January and February I have already had meetings with three children who have made a profession of faith. I am so excited with what God is doing in our ministry. God has done a wonderful work in using the faithfulness of parents and the consistency of Sunday School to have His Gospel go forth. I am excited that children are being saved at evbc. We know this is not about numbers, but about God transforming hearts. I tell you these wonderful stories as encouragement to keep going and press on. Paul tells us to “not grow weary in doing good. ” We know that our service is for our Savior, not ourselves.

The Gospel is our main thing, and we will be able to communicate it most effectively when it is all we are. We had a staff summit; we talked about our purpose as teachers and what God desires for us to do. We had a wonderful Q&A, where we discussed how we should love and care for the special needs students who are in our ministry. We have put the audio from the morning on the church website and would love for you to listen, and move with us on a journey where Jesus matters more than anything.

I am encouraged with all that God is doing and will do. We have an amazing King and we have the ability to pray big prayers. Join with me as we finish up this spring semester in asking God to save more of the children in our church, that they would live for His glory and honor all the days of their lives.
