From Jenn;
This story really encouraged me. Leah was once in Kids Ministry herself. She has been serving with Hope for the Island many years and had already done a Discipleship Training School with YWAM. Her heart for discipleship is what encouraged me when I read this story. Spending time with kids and guiding them on a road to leadership takes time and patience, yet our team on the ground realizes the importance of long-term investment in these kids’ lives- I am truly blessed with an awesome team. Read Leah’s story below:
From Leah:
These youth were some of my active kids when they were in elementary. They loved being part of Kid’s Ministry. Now they are starting high school. They opened up to me that they have a heart to lead and volunteer in Kid’s Ministry. I decided to disciple them first before giving them an opportunity to lead.
There is one who led the songs and I will assign them each a certain task. One of them will teach the kids after reviewing the topic and the others will help me to oversee the kids. They are really a big help. Currently I don’t have anyone assisting me with Kid’s Ministry.
I am really proud seeing them grow in the Lord. Please always continue to pray for these kids that they will rise up and become leaders one day..?
From Janece:
I thank God for this another opportunity to be able to teach the kids here in our area. This is the high light for my week. Most active kids are in Grade 5 and 6 now, with most of them graduating next year. I thank God for the keen desire the children have to come and commitment the parents make for the kids to attend.
