Today was awesome! The kids overcame their apprehension about leading VBS groups and working out in the hot sun to completely shock me and make me SO PROUD!
As we worked at VBS, Sydney discovered her new love for preschoolers as Spencer found her inner voice! Jeremy and Donnie led the elementary kids in an awesome obstacle course!
At the Garden of Hope, I continued to be energetic and cheer on Team Souled Out (Our youth group is named Souled Out...just in case you were wondering :) ) as they helped tidy up the garden. The girls were so awesome about initiating work and they even split up and worked with other youth and leaders!!! I am so proud of how hard they worked today!
Jeremy was all over the place helping wherever was needed. Gary loved working with power tools and helping everyone work together. Bailey and Donnie were given praise tonight at worship for their awesome job today! I didn't even see Donnie at the garden because he was off working hard the whole time!
Sydney and I are master weeders! The place is looking AMAZING!!! Worship tonight was really powerful. The kids are really opening up in our discussions and God is really working great things in their hearts! COS SOULED OUT ROCKS!
More tomorrow!

Praise GOD! Thanks SO much for the updates & pics! I love supporting our youth and am so proud of them, too. (Not to mention their FEARLESS leader!)
