International Missions

My newest Mentor,
Emmanuel Atwi, President of Ghana Bible College in
Kumasi, Ghana 

Today, our congregation invited a man from Africa to come and tell us about his work and his country, Ghana.  I spent the morning with the President of Ghana Bible College... and now he is my good friend -- Brother Emmanuel Atnwi.

I plan to raise funds to help him in his mission to spread the Good News about Jesus in Ghana.  I will post more about my plans and some ideas later this month. 

What is Servant Leadership?

During my third year in Lads to Leaders,

 

Our Theme for 2015/2016 was

 "All that you say to me, I will do."

 

 It is never easy to strive
 

To obey the Bible in all things
 

But there is no better way to try to live.

I have met many wonderful people who

Have Ruth 3 verse 5 as their goal in life.

These people are good people,

 I mean
 

Salt of the Earth types. 

 

Many of them are with me in Lads to Leaders (L2L).

My Puppet Team last year

For 2015/2016 in Lads to Leaders, I signed up for 19 events.  

That is HUGE.  

This is only my Third year in L2L, but I was interested in so many things, 

my parents said I could do 19 events, 

IF I promised to complete two events or items per month. 

  

I had to make a plan on paper, and my mom made me keep a journal, 

writing down when I was working on each event, 

and when I finished. 

 It kept me on track.  

But even if I don't win a single event, it doesn't matter, 

because I will have gained so much more.  

Youth Service work this year

Here is a song that sums it all up:

Make me a servant, Lord, Make me like you... 

For you are a Servant, 

Make me like You,

Make me a servant, 

Do what you must do,

To make me a servant, 

Make me like you.
