Ripple effect

David our Lead Server

Yesterday I (Catherine) listened as one of our staff members shared devotion time with our new students.  He told some of his own story - how he lived for the drinking party every weekend.  He painted a picture of a very sad, hopeless young man who was ready to give up.  Then, one day... God entered his life and changed everything.  It was one of those moments when you realize, "this is what it's all about."  We came here with a message of Hope and Love and he was one of the young men in our classroom who studied what God had to say about him.  He learned about the truth of God's love and care for His children and embraced it with an eager heart.  Now to watch him light up with the joy of the Lord as he explains how his journey of faith has strengthened him and given him a greater hope than he could ever imagine. We passed on the message to him and watching him pass on the message to these eager students ..... well.... I can't describe the sense of spiritual fulfillment I felt.  My heart is overflowing with gratitude today!
