SHORT TERM MISSIONS UPDATE

Werealmost to our fourth week of Summer Training Project and so far
a lot has happened so Ill try my best to relate everything thats been
going on. The theme for this summer is called The Story which is
really a walkthrough of basic Christian doctrines starting with creation,
and then curse, Christ, cross, re-creation and ending with a segment
called commitment. Practically however you could say that thetheme for
thesummer could be moreaccurately described as how to suffer as a
Christian. So far oneof theguy roomleaders lost his momto a sudden
resurgenceof cancer a littleover two weeks ago. Hes sincecome back
and has assumed his role but now hes having to deal with the grief of
losing his mom. Of the two girl roomleaders, onehas a mother whos
facing a risky open heart surgery in J uly (there are many potential
complications) and its been really hard for her. The other has been
suffering fromfrequent near debilitating migraines, which likewise has
been very difficult.

The past few weeks have definitely felt very weighty. The blessing in
this has been that our group has really bonded and that its really given
weight to the messageof thegospel. Imhoping and praying that it gives
thestudents moreof a drive to go deeper with each other and evangelize.
Not all of thestudents hereareChristians so Imlikewisepraying that
through this project and the preaching of the gospel that God will shine
the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ
J esus in their hearts (2 Corinthians 4:6).

Therearea few other things I should say. Oneis that Meijer is overjoyed
to haveus working there. They have really loved us being there and have
rolled out the red carpet for us. Wevestarted forming relationships with
co-workers and some of us have had opportunities to share the gospel
with them. Another thing is that the training has been fantastic. Recently
we've had talks on things such as the creation, work, suffering,
redemption, and evangelism and everyone has really benefited from
them. Finally Ill say that I'vepersonally been growing a lot as a leader
here. Its not hard to seehow insufficient I amfor this role, but God has
been very gracious and I'vebeen learning moreand moreto trust in His
sufficiency (2 Corinthians 3:4-6) and not my own strength. Pray for us!

In Christ,
