Monday!

1 Corinthians 3:16
"Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?"

Well, today began our week of Back Yard Bible Clubs! Overall we had 134+ children in attendance and 16 decisions for Christ! How awesome is our Lord? It is only the first day and already God is working in us and through us! Some of our locations included Westcave, Santa Rita, Rosewood and Highpoint, among others. Some of our groups experienced trials such as language barrier, unruly kids, and intense heat, yet through all of this, God is providing!

"Today God has shown me that these kids in my BYBC at Booker T. Washington deserve to be shown love just as Christ loved us and that we may shine His light on them. In my club, there were a lot of kids that obviously did not know God's love and how to share it or what it looked like. I realized that God has called me to this area for two years in a row to create an impact in these children and to show them what it means to be loved. 1 John 4:7-8, 12 says "Dear friends let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love, does not know God, because God is love. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us."'

As the day progressed, we moved on to our service project time. Today many of the Dripping Springs teams spent time canvassing for Summerfest! In only one day we passed out fliers to over 2,000 households! Another team began a Sports Ministry in the Park that will continue throughout the week. Today there were only a few children, but we are hoping and praying for more as the week progresses.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support this week!
