Middle School Moments

Hey, Hey!

The Christmas season is in full swing and I bet most of you are really enjoying the many opportunities to celebrate. I always feel like the Christmas season never really gets going until we wrap up my wife’s birthday (December 11). Now that birthday celebration is over I can work on being jolly. :)

On with the prayer!

WE GIVE THANKS TO GOD!
~ For awesome individuals that give up their time weekly to spend with teenagers. I have gotten to hear quite a few stories of the interaction between volunteer leaders and kids.

~ For the kids that are getting involved in the different serving opportunities going on in the church. It’s great hearing that teenagers are living out God’s love for others.

~ For me getting a weekend off. That may sound silly, but it doesn’t happen very often. Pretty much God has to put a lot of things in order to make that happen. :) Plus some really awesome volunteers.

WE ASK GOD:
1 - For help in creating a more welcoming environment for kids on Sunday. I think we do an OK job at this, but we really want kids, and especially visitors, to feel welcomed and comfortable when they show up for our weekend program. We hope to put a few things in place this weekend and want God to bless those efforts.

2 - For additional middle school volunteers for the Noon service. I have two high quality individuals that help me during this service, but they can’t be there every week. We want to deepen our line up there. Let’s pray that God puts a few individuals in our path.

3 - For families that are having a difficult time during the holiday season. I asked for this last time, but please continue to pray. We get a ton of calls at the church for people that need help. We want to help as many people as we can. Ask God to multiply what we have so we can give so much more.


THANKS FOR PRAYING FOR OUR YOUTH MINISTRY!
