This summer has been wonderful and rather busy (but in a good way )! In my last letter I mentioned that I would be working in a VBS and asked for your prayers for that week. I am thrilled to report that we had great attendance and several children and teens trusted Christ, including one of the girls in the Juniors class I taught! No matter how many times I see it, it always thrills my heart to see a person place their faith in Christ and receive His free gift of forgiveness and salvation! It was a special privilege to see that same girl so excited about her new life in Christ that she went home and told her family and friends, she brought friends with her each night during the rest of the week, she learned each memory verse and brought her Bible every night—and because the church was recording points in each of those areas, she ended up earning the title of “VBS Champion!” I pray that she will never lose that excitement for the things of the Lord!!
