  • She’s Letting Her Light Shine

    A few weeks ago, students around the country gathered around their flagpoles on a Wednesday morning before school to pray and worship publically. The Saturday before, a local church hosted a See You At The Pole rally with a band we’ve had a our church a couple times, Mycalvary. My husband, David, was the guest speaker. It was a small group, but we saw several kids give their heart to Jesus.

    One of the girls in our youth group wasn’t able to attend the rally and had forgotten to go to her flagpole that Wednesday. That night at church, she was so upset at herself. She was pretty sure that no one in her school even coordinated a See You At The Pole.

    Two weeks later, as we met for youth group last night, I learned that she has started a Monday and Friday morning bible study before classes start with one of her other Christian friends. In her words, “We meet on Monday to pray for the rest of the week and again on Friday to pray for the weekend.” I teared up just a bit, gave her a big hug, and told her how proud I am of her.

    It is so encouraging to see fruit!
