A Breath at The Life Church

Once again, after months of praying, planning, running around like crazy, and more praying, we have finished another kids camp. Phew! It's summers like this one that make my life worth living. Honestly, this week of ministering at The Life Church, was so refreshing and encouraging! Talking with the Life Church staff, working with their youth, and worshipping with their kids brought a breath of life, and reminded us why we even do this- to make eternal investments, to plant seeds!
 The week kicked off wonderfully without a single hitch! Actually, there was one...our glow sticks didn't really glow. But even in this little baby hiccup, God provided even more than we expected with flashlights and laser lights  the kids loved! We had great times of worship, and fun with silly songs, and had the perfect opportunity to encourage kids to have a heart for missions and prayer, and to help them understand God has a plan and purpose for them! We even were so blessed that we were able to bless every kid with a gift!

As you can see, the kids had a great time getting there "blessings"!

Overall, it was an incredible week filled with the presence of God! There is something so incredibly humbling about seeing kids worship God!

One of my favorite things is the chance to invest in the Life Kids both last and this summer!

Classic.

This is my life.

Thank you so much to Pastor Lance and Pastor Laurie, and all the staff and student leaders at The Life Church! If you're in Stockton, I urge you to check this church out! Also thanks to Nikki for putting up with my pretend punching and bossiness- I love you! And finally, thanks to Jan- without you this would have been a danger filled disaster! I sincerely appreciate all of you!

Well, here we go, off to the church for round 3 at Christian Worship Center in San Jose! Pray for us! It's from 9am-2pm, and I have the preschool and kindergarten class with 17 kids!
Pray for the planted dreams!
Love.
