CYIA has been GREAT!!
I am a cabin supervisor in the Hopi cabin. I have 7 girls ages 16-17 and they are a great group of girls. We have been having really meaningful devotions at night which I am really thankful for. They have been deep and personal and at time have made some of us cry. I hate it when people cry, but God has really been pulling on their hearts and I'm thankful that God planned out what we would learn in conjunction with lives. For example, last night we had another great deep devotional time and during chapel this morning God convicted me during the chapel message. It just goes to show that God can show us anything through his Word.
As for the program. We started going the junior program and the regular program yesterday. Unfortunately we were unable to go hand out "Meet the King" Books but today we were. We are going door to door in Auburn and are hoping to do the entire town of Auburn and hand out all 1,500 books. It's a big job, but with a group like ours, I'm sure we can do it. The regular program started their 4-day club ministery. I've heard wonderful things from the girls in my cabin as well as other girls. Some clubs have 8-15 kids, others have 1-5 kids and some don't have any yet. Please pray that kids would be coming to club to learn. Please also pray for the literature distribution program (junior program). That they would be able to hand out lots of "Meet the King" books.
The classes there were from Thursday-Saturday went very well. They were, at times, long but God really helped us to learn so much and be prepared for our opportunity during Open Air. Speaking of Open Air, we were able to be in contact with about 350 people and 35 made decisions to accept Christ as their savior. It was such an exciting day and although many were afraid and nervous, they did a wonderful job and many people were able to hear.
Thanks for praying! I'll update again when I get the chance!!
This is all great to hear because I am not there this year and could be my way of knowing what's going on. Please keep me posted Kristen!! Thanks for the update so far!
