Jun 12-Macomb Moments
While I know kids (and some parents) are thrilled school is
out, I am a bit disappointed. Don’t get
me wrong, I love summer break as much as most, but May was such a great month,
I am sad to take a bit of a pause.
We had an AMAZING end of school, free pizza lunch. We had approximately 150 people present (with
very few seniors – as they had finished classes)! My favorite moment is that
the Special Education class came with their teacher. Awwww….
 |
To celebrate our seniors we hosted a Dip & Glow
Party. We had all sorts of dippers for
chocolate, white chocolate and cheese fondues – then had a glow in the dark
party. We had so much fun at our dipping
party, we had the same format for our volunteer appreciation party.
Heading into summer, we are looking forward to camps, our
photo scavenger hunt, prayer walking and other fun activities. Some are scheduled, some are still to be
added.

Jun 12-Bushnell Beat
June Newsletter info
This past month I am
reminded that God gives us boundaries for our protection and our blessings. We
had an activity with teens this past month where we demonstrated how God gives
us commandments to keep us from harm and to allow us to prosper in the world He
has made. These commandments in His Word lead us to knowledge of our own
sinfulness and a need for salvation beyond ourselves, found only in our Savior,
Jesus Christ. Please pray for me and volunteer leaders as we connect teens to
Jesus this summer.
Some of the highlights
from the past month have been:
- Baccalaureate with graduating
seniors at 1st Presbyterian Church in Bushnell
- Graduation in Bushnell and time
with teens at commencing parties
- Golf outing fundraising event
for YFC
- Counseling teens with difficult
home lives
- Pool party & cookout with
teens at the Rodeffer’s for both Sr. and Jr. High
- Coaching 13-14 year old
baseball – teaching discipline & teamwork
Prayer items:
Spiritual growth in teens over the summer
That the last Cornerstone Festival will produce spiritual fruit in
the lives of people
For boldness to speak into the lives of teens I am connected with
Pray for Michelle and I as we supervise a small group of teens on
a mission trip to Grenada in July
