Do Something NOW


I hate it that Policemen are being shot down in the streets in 
our country these days! 

They are the ones who help, and yet
bad people are going after them to KILL.


Today,some friends and I made some cupcakes, 
wrote some encouraging notes, 
and delivered them to 
our local Police Station.


The Police Officers were so happy! 


It only took an hour of our time, but  
we made a huge difference in 
the Policemen's day!




We showed them our notes, and then asked 
the Police Chief if we could say a 
prayer over them. 

Steven, my good friend led the prayer, asking God to 
provide safety, wisdom, and 
protection to all the officers. 

Then we just talked and petted the big Police Dog. 

I encourage everyone to take time to 
do something like this soon.  

These men do dangerous work and 
they said very few people thank them. 



"When the righteous are in authority,


 the people rejoice:


but when the wicked rule, 


the people mourn."

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 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.
