April
Baby Shower
These are 2 of my good friends from college. DJ is having her 2nd son who Im proud to call my 2nd Godson! I have been so blessed by these girls friendship over the years. Im grateful to call these two my supporters as well. We were able to reunite at the baby shower after a lot of time!
Though they are not students in my ministry, it has been a blessing to share the things that God has taught me and the ways that he has grown me over these past few years working for FOCUS. They have both attested to the transformation and different person that they see in me since college, and I have to thank our ministry for being the leading force in that change. God has done and is doing incredible things through FOCUS in my life, and in the student's lives, and I am so thankful. Praise God for the work he does in our hearts.
Me, DJ, Christen
Me and my 1st godson, (Dj's first son), Dyce! This boy can play some basketball!
This is Presley, Christen's baby girl!
Rez(urrection) Fair!
Rez Fair is something we do each year during the week of easter where us and the other ministries on campus come together as a united front to declare unity in the celebration of one of our Lord's biggest deals: the RESURRECTION FROM THE DEAD! When I think of the resurrection, hope and excitement are the words that come to mind. What a wonder it is that we who believe can look forward to death without fear and doom. I wouldn't rather serve any other God than the one who tells me that I can look at the most desolate part of life and feel hopeful about whats to come. How bizarre! Here are some moments from our celebration!
Baptisms
Matthew 28:19 "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
This is what our forever mission is as Christians whether working directly in ministry or not. Wherever we may find ourselves. Whoever is presently in our lives. We will always be called with the charge to show people Jesus and show them how to follow Him.
Have you told anyone about Jesus lately?
Haley from my small group :) We got to study the bible together, and boy let me tell you, this girl's got some wisdom for a 19 year old!
This is a student named Miriam's baptism. I didn't disciple her or know her very well, but it was such a gift to hear about what God had done in her life. People really showed up for her!
Ashlie from my small group from last year :)
Ashlie's family Mom, dad, and then 6 siblings!
The strides Ashlie has made in following Jesus are so tangible. The way she thinks and acts now is far different from where she was when I met her as a Freshman. I am so thankful that her and I became friends and that I was able to get to know her and study the bible with her. Her questions kept me on my toes! What an example she is to her family.
This was the month of April in my ministry! Thank you so much for taking the time to read my blog! Thank you SO much for your continued support in my ministry. None of this would be possible without your selfless generosity. Thank you!
How can I be praying for you?
