Updates....I've been busy sorry
Wow I dont really know where to start. Its been like a month since I have posted. Since then project has pretty much gone on in the same way; its been really busy, especially since the staff left. Our week goes as follows; We work monday through thursday from 8:00 to 5:00, do service projects on Friday. Go camping on friday night, share down town on saturday morning, go to church sunday morning, and we usually have social events saturday and sunday nights. Monday nights we meet as a group to discuss the past and future weeks and encourage one another and share about our conversations at work or with locals. Tuesday nights we do an activity with all of the men, usually involving hiking or some other type of physical activity with a lesson. Wednesday nights we have the campus crusade meeting for the campus here, thursday nights we meet in small groups for bible study and accountability. So our week is packed. Lately I have been serving at the Methodist church camp on Fridays, which has been really rewarding. It has been neat to see the way the really solid people who run the camp invest in kids as a way of ministering to the future of Juneau. I have gotten in to a couple of spiritual conversations at work, which has been a huge blessing, but some times I get kind of frustrated by how difficult it is to talk to people at work; I am usually working by myself. Lately God has been teaching me to lean on his spirit to lead me and realize that I do not have the discipline or ability to even be positive all the time at work, much less be sharing the Gospel in my conversations. PLEASE PRAY that God would bring up spiritual conversations at work, especially in these last few days. As part of the evangelism team, I am helping plan a big event for this weekend. We are calling it an evangelism event but its really sort of a revival. We plan to have two events. The first event will be in the morning targeting churches; we are hoping to get as many of the churches in Juneau as possible to come for a worship session and pray, as the church body in Juneau, for the city. Following that we will give everyone the opportunity to come down town to share the gospel with us. We hope that God can use it to unite the church here and give them a vision for evangelising Juneau. The second event will be in the evening and will target non Christians. We will provide free food and have worship and a Gospel message. PLEASE PRAY for this event; that people will show up in numbers and that God will work in their hearts, and that the church will become more united here and that people will get plugged into churches.
