We got to spend time with students the last week of Beach Project and it was amazing to see the changes in their lives in just three weeks. Here are some statements they made:
Heather: "Through God bring someone to me that had been through the same things I have, I saw that God could use me, and that I didn't have to wait a few years until I know more for that to happen."
Kelly: (WHO I WROTE ABOUT EARLIER THIS SUMMER) "I want God to use me to reach my friends at school. I want to think of ways that I can tell them what has happened to me. God has shown me this summer that I can trust him, and that he isn't like any human. I want my friends to know what I have found." (I wish you could see the difference in Kelly's countenance in just a few weeks!)
Derek: "God has shown me this summer that last year I didn't take responsibility for ministering to the people He put around me. This year I've gotten together with some other guys and we're going to hold each other accountable to reach our campus."
Johnny: "If our campus is going to be reached, it has to be through us, the students. We are the ones who God can use to make it happen."
Alisa: "I'm excited about going back and sharing all the things that I've learned at Beach Project. I just want to be faithful."
Carrie: (WHO I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT PREVIOUSLY WITH HER SISTER KELLY) "I learned this summer in Mexico that Christ in us is the hope of glory for everyone else. They have to see the hope within us and we have to share it with them."
This is only a small fraction of what happened over the summer at Beach Project. What is exciting is thinking of all the lives that will be radically changed through THEM! Please pray for their return to school and their new relationships.
