June 2018 Praise and Prayer


  June is when Christian Youth in Action takes place in Wisconsin.  This is a major event which we work on for most of the year.  On Sunday, June 9th 42 young people arrive, and spend the next two weeks learning how to share their faith with children through 5-Day Clubs. 
For about half of the young people, this is the first time attending CYIA.  Your prayers for these young people (mostly high school age) this summer is appreciated.  Praise the Lord for this next generation of believers who are desiring to share their faith through children’s ministry.
After training they will return to their local areas and teach 5-Day Clubs for the summer.   It is always a fruitful time of ministry as children hear the good news and are challenged to accept God’s gift of salvation.   
As June started I had a bit of a challenge as I discovered that one of my email addresses had been hacked.  I lost all of my contacts but thankfully it was one that didn't have a lot.   Pray that there will not be damage done by the hackers.   Thanks to those who let me  know what was happening. 
Thank you so much for your investment in the ministry that God has called me to.   Because of you I continue to work to reach the children of Wisconsin with the gospel.
