glocal

Just this last January the students at Richland Creek spent a month training and preparing for outreach through Sunday school. Int eh process they each signed a Glocal Covenant as the committed to not allow anyone in the student ministry to graduate High school without sharing their faith at least one time.

Just 4 months later the work the Lord has done in their lives has been amazing to say the least. I was planning on a year turn around to move these students into an outward focus and begin to think of evangelism as a normal way of life, yet just this Wednesday over 40 students hit the road on a visitation night.

From personal invitations on cold door knocks to servant evangelism projects to guest follow up these students have started on a one way track to understanding what the Great Commission is all about. They are thinking Locally about God's work and missions.

This summer we will be headed to Virginia and Cornall, Ontario for even more missions and evangelism, not to mention that next summer a team of students will be headed across the Atlantic to Greece to work with the Roma Gypsies. Now they are thinking globally.

I am in awe of how fast God has moved these students into action and I pray that hardships, hindrances, unexpected events, and unresponsive visits will not turn the hearts of our students away from a life of making Jesus Christ known.

We will continue to be global and local in the cause of Christ.
