"These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers."
~Acts 1:14~
Another note from camp:
I was amazed to see the work our team accomplished. It's amazing how individuals from many different states who have just met can work together like the best of friends. I witnessed that Wednesday as our team of 28 folks organized clothes, food, furniture & baby items at a center for the needy. I saw it again today as Anna & Kayla ministered with our team to patients & their families in medical apartments where they live to be close to the hospital. Many await heart & lung transplants. Others battle cancer. And a couple has burried 2 of their premature triplets since their birth May 29; the last little boy continues to fight for his life.
Back on campus tonight, this same team won the camp mega-relay contest.
What is making the difference in this team's success in ministry & activities? What made the difference in our church VBS last week where 8 decisions for Christ were made?
One mind, one accord. They all continued in one mind & one accord. All were focused on the same common goal: the gospel of Jesus. No one stopped to ask what personal glory might be obtained. No one complained about their busy schedule, or how tired they were, or pointed fingers to someone else to do the task.
They just continued, united for Christ. I pray this the dawn of a new era for our church, our youth, our community.
