Living the Word

Here's what the 8th Graders are thinking: "God is a perfect God with everlasting love and kindness. There is no boundary to His kindness, which gives Him full power to love us and help us when we need it." "I know that God will be right beside me wherever and whenever in my life. He will also guide me in the hard choices that I will make. God knows my fears, stresses, and doubts. I know that I can depend on Him when I need his help in life." "He knows right now I am finding who I am and that is comforting... He knows me better than I know myself." It is amazing how God will always be with me...

We are raising money for World Renew. Their website describes their mission with: Living Justice, Loving Mercy, Serving Christ "Compelled by God’s deep passion for justice & mercy, we join communities around the world to renew hope, reconcile lives, and restore creation." The Avail Middle School hopes to raise enough money to buy a herd, which includes a goat, a pig, and a calf, along with training and support from World Renew for people to move from just subsisting to living a more abundant life.

A Hopping Weekend!

At Church: The Kindness Kid strikes again! Here's what he says:      Today I went to Cub in Bloomington with my youth group and rang bells for the Salvation Army which helps those in need. And he wasn't the only one ringing bells:      My youth group went to the Eden Prairie Cub and rang bells for the Salvation Army In other action:      Our small group had a Christmas party for someone at my church who has cancer. She is not that old and has two kids, and may not live.       The pastor at our church invited all the widows and widowers to his house for a Christmas brunch yesterday. O n the Homefront: Something awkward happened to me and a friend gave me some advice. It was really helpful. Yesterday I was feeling terrible, sick, and out of it, and then I ran into Lily at Target. We talked and she made me feel better. A random lady was helping my brother and me in the store. Watching us reminded her to...
