Over the last two weeks, we were blessed and encouraged by a
youth group team from East Brandywine Baptist Church led by Josh and Jen Park,
Kirsten’s cousin and his wife.
Their ministry was widespread but concentrated on building into and
challenging our Youth Fellowship and teens from Buff Bay. A “Five Night Frenzy” helped achieve
these goals as the evenings were by and for the young people. Throughout the week, several teens
professed faith in Jesus Christ and even more rededicated themselves to following
Jesus wholeheartedly and running the Christian race hard to the end. It was extra special to have served
alongside family members who are always encouraging and uplifting.
The next four weeks are packed with camp, camp, and more
camp. From children’s camp this
week to continued planning to youth camp the second week of August, we will be
running around preparing and building deeper relationships with young
people. Please be praying for the
children and teens as they come to their respective summer camps. God has been moving in the hearts of
many of our Buff Bay young people, and we trust Him to draw young men and women
to Himself even this summer. As
you intercede for the young people, please also pray for Jon and the other men
as they teach God’s Word, pray for Kirsten as she prepares activities and picks
up random pieces, pray for Trevor that he will continue to be a blessing in the
community, and pray for the upcoming teams that they will grow in grace and
encourage the youth to seek the Lord.
Lastly, your Trevor update. This little boy loves to move! Whether running around the house, church, and yard or
swimming in the ocean, he rarely stops moving until he falls asleep – sometimes
quite literally. Trevor’s happy,
friendly spirit brings us great joy each day and we thank God for this precious
gift.
